@LukeAlmighty @victor @feld @bot Meaning is relative
If you divide it over infinity it doesn't exist
@LukeAlmighty @victor @feld @bot That's not really the point
If you live forever then this life has 0 relative worth.
@feld @victor @LukeAlmighty @bot You can't choose your own environment and brain/soul
Free will requires infinite recursion of you picking your own condition. It doesn't make sense as a concept
@victor @feld @LukeAlmighty @bot That's completely opposite. Things are meaningful when they're rare
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki Ye the docs rn don't look great. The API is documented but idk what it wants. I'll hold off for now
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki There is an ISO C. Never new they were payed though, somehow
Early C "spec" was basically just K&R though
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki The reference implementation has a discord server, lmao
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki Wtf. Since when do you need to buy ISO standards. At least with png/webp it's formally open
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki Last year when I looked at it Gimp didn't even support it without an extension. Tested it now and works
It's getting there. Much better than I expected tbh
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki >ISO/IEC 18181-1:2022
Nigga, that's this year. Since it's finally out though I should look at adding it to my software
JXL is cool but as of yet nothing supports it so it's not as useable as webp. I'll start adding it to my stuff though, at least as an optional feature
@iamtakingiteasy @Inginsub @hideki Has it even been standardised yet?
@hideki It has much better lossless compression than png and on functional operating systems it just werks with everything. Pngs were invented in the 90s as a FOSS competitor to gif that's hardly better than bziping raw image data
It's easy to integrate into software because it has a sane C API. It takes 1 function calls to do what takes libpng 50 lines of code
It's objectively good. Software not supporting it is a fault in the software
@LukeAlmighty @swashberry@social.linux.pizza Then again, I kinda enjoy writing glue code too, wrapping C libs for Lua
Maybe programming is just fun. I wouldn't wanna do just glue code tho
@LukeAlmighty @swashberry@social.linux.pizza That's why it's fun though
You have a set environment with set limitations and tools and are then free to solve problems in that state
The alternative is being a consumer of code. The environment and tools is infinite and problem solving changes to learning APIs and making small bits of code to glue them together
@pluralistic They were literally the biggest party, friend
They were popular because the books they burned were from jewish sexologists promoting the mommy-daughter stripper and transgender drag shows that were a plague in Berlin at the time
@diresock DT memes vs DT being serious
