@Esychology @RandazzoEttore @zzznah @eyvindn Note that you can compile with `make CUDA=0` for a CPU-only version :-)

What happens if we let randomly initialized strings of code interact with each other in a closed system? In our latest work we show how surprisingly often self-replicators arise in a wide range of environments and computational substrates! 1/N https://t.co/JL05LRbDe9

I had some fun implementing a simple 4d raytracer these past weeks and decided to make a video out of it: https://t.co/sKfb137Nlf

@eclipseo10 @jyzg I can't think of many low-hanging fruits, but I'm sure something could be done.

More updates on the fast PNG and JXL encoders I wrote. I also wrote slides with more details on how they work & code links: https://t.co/ZssbnfFzX8 #png #jxl

[Luca Versari @LucaVersari3]

@ray5ar It does exist :) In theory one could extend fjxl to do animations too...

@tbonfort @jonsneyers @richgel999 @phoboslab It's a self-contained new encoder, about 600 LoC but many are not really needed (description of the generated bitstream, bit by bit, for the headers etc)

@phoboslab @jonsneyers @richgel999 No, those numbers are for 1 thread, with more threads it gets faster ;)
