I moved to doing programming for some post production companies and I am working on a couple of patches for ffmpeg. First time writing C and the task has been both daunting and rewarding, I am mostly working hls enc/dec and learning about av has been a ton of fun!

#442my bet is that most companies and solo devs only need a single process and sqlite to drive revenue.
i’m considering switching from tsx to bun, but i’m hesitating because of some missing node 20 api.

#443I'm working on a web app that helps you discover books, movies, TV shows, video games, and songs that you'll like. The app makes it super easy to describe what you're looking for and then gives you a unique set of 10 suggestions on each run. It's the first solo project I've done in many years and I'm having a great time learning. I've also been able to get some great recommendations for myself and it's fun to use! ht…
However, I gave it "Jane Eyre" (a mid-19th century novel by Charlotte Bronte; it's a classic) with the expectation that it will return "Wuthering Heights" – another a classic novel written in mid-19th century by Emily Bronte (yes the authors are related) – among other things. People who like Jane Eyre tend to like Wuthering Heights, and vice versa.
But everything it returned were new works – published in the last 20 years – of stories that are set in the 19th century.
The only filters applied were: "Preferred: Gothic romance novel, Victorian literature, Highly influential classic literature, Early 19th-century England ".
So, something seems amiss for now. Nevertheless, it's a very cool idea.
(Edited to fix my grammar; English is not my first language, so pardon me for any mistakes.)

#444Working on verifiable correctness for programs written in LM or anything that generates annotated assembly. Basically low-level proofs that accessed memory is valid and live or that function pre/post-conditions are met.
The goal is that these proofs are compiler agnostic, so more people can use them.

#450Hey guys! We're engineers/designers from France, and we've built the Ultimate DIY Battery that you can repair and refill! It works with 90% of the bikes/motor brands on the market, so I assumed that some people here might be interested, if they got a non-functional batteries but they still want to use their e-bike? We believe that everybody should have control about stuff they own, and we should fight against planned…
If Kickstarter is starting in Sept, then I guess it will be another 1-2 years.
