  • What are you working on?

    Jump

  • It means that I made changes to code, so that it can work with any multi-threading strategy. G'MIC is a interpretative language with JIT support, and you don't have any control over automated multi-threading strategy. It can be thread 0 to thread N linearly, or even interleaved. So, the workaround is to make a image of size equal to cpus count, and do the multithreading there.

    Yeah, I love image processing, I worked on it for 8+ years now.

  • Like programming in bash

    Jump

  • I use it for scripting too. I don't need Python as much as before nowaday.

  • What are you working on?

    Jump

  • As always, I do image processing. I'm a G'MIC filter developer. Recently, did some code changes to my combinatorics tools to be insensitive to multi-threaded strategy.

  • C++ creator calls for action to address 'serious attacks'

    Jump

  • Just use Rust. Eazy Peazy. C++ will likely be still be used because it's just not realistic for some softwares to switch to a safer programming language.

  • (How to trigger programmers (and make them irrationally angry)

    Jump

  • Uh, that would be infuriating to see. (Yes, I can see tabs in KDE Kate)

  • (How to trigger programmers (and make them irrationally angry)

    Jump

  • What if you use tabs for indentations and space for alignment?

  • Not incorrect.

    Jump

  • What if you prefer a DSL? I use G'MIC for image processing tasks.

  • New Firefox terms of use could push users to Google Chrome

    Jump

  • I moved to Waterfox recently. Google Chrome, hell no.

  • The state should be purely passed through function inputs and outputs

    Jump

  • I use states, but no classes. G'MIC is my main language. I do appreciate the functional way of thinking after writing in it for so long. States are just variables that defines the mode of something, right?

  • What's stopping you from writing your Rust like this?

    Jump

  • I dislike Python as well, but it has it place. I only use it for quick code tests before doing it in other languages.

  • A Shiny New Programming Language - Hackster.io

    Jump

  • People should use less Ai, and learn more how to program

    Yes. Once you know how, you can see pitfalls with AI.

    Jump

  • Interesting, but I never needed AI for coding. Well, twice, and I had to do changes, but would not use AI to generate code.

  • Is Python Really That Slow?

    Jump

  • My small Python (~100 lines of codes) codes aren't maintainable, but I'm happy with them. I don't ever plan to work on serious projects with Python, so I can't say much about it's maintainability. But, from limited experience, I'd rather use C++, C#, or in my special case, G'MIC if maintainability matters to me.

  • Is Python Really That Slow?

    Jump

  • In my experience, it is.

    I had converted a Python code into G'MIC, and then some one else did a Python version of my own code. G'MIC is interpretative with JIT math parser. The results:

    Reversing digits in a 1024x1024 RGB image.

    Python: Without lookup table and numpy - 3+ minutes

    Python: With lookup table and numpy - 6.5 s (Some one else machine, but it shouldn't take that long)

    G'MIC: Without lookup table - .3 s

    G'MIC: With lookup table - .005 s

    And I did Lavander Binary Map on my machine, you can find code for Python version in github/gmic-community/include/reptorian.gmic:

    Python: 3 s (Without lookup table)

    G'MIC:.15 s (Without lookup table)

    G'MIC: .05 s (With lookup table)

    Honestly, I find Python pretty bad for image processing in general.

  • GIMP - GIMP 3.0 RC1 Released

    Jump

  • I use Levels filter tool for that in Krita. Already non-destructive.

  • Python Overtakes JavaScript as Most Popular Language on GitHub

    Jump

  • Scala does look nice. Just a quick syntax view makes me want to give it a whirl when I want an alternative to Python. I used to code in C++, and C#. I use G'MIC (DSL) as my main. Scala seems right up my alley.

  • Looking for a HTML4 editor.

    Jump

  • Yes. <center></center> isn't part of HTML5. It is part of HTML4 though.

  • Looking for a HTML4 editor.

    Jump

  • Yes, something like that. I provided a spoiler example recently. And I would definitely like to be able to adjust what's going to be rendered by editing on the rendered viewport.
