turns out you really can just do things

the first annual digfest is in the books!

It’s so exciting that self-driving cars are starting to kinda work. Physical robots are way cooler than coding agents.

I’m hoping by 2035 you can buy an excavator, install open-source software, and tell it to build you a driveway.

@taviso @FFmpeg @filpizlo @jaysonsantos Simultaneously it's worth pointing out that even the google employees who sicced the AIs on the codebase also want the code to be "better" even if their understanding of better is not the same as everyone else's.

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@taviso @FFmpeg @filpizlo @jaysonsantos Obviously no one wants to be pwned by opening some random file but maybe some would argue that supporting more codecs with the caveat of ensuring the files come from a trusted source is worthwhile. In a world where contributor time is limited there are tradeoffs, not excuses.

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos I suppose herein lies the central issue: ffmpeg as an archival tool versus ffmpeg as backbone infrastructure. Obviously different parties have different opinions about what is more important to prioritize.

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos Fair enough, that is a very difficult, and very admirable goal

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos But no one's insisting that it be fixed urgently. It's a hobby codec after all...

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos I'm not sure why it makes a difference who submitted the big report, it's still a bug either way...

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos Is the expectation that all big reports get submitted along with a patch that fixes the bug?

[Christopher Milan @CMOVcc]

@FFmpeg @taviso @filpizlo @jaysonsantos If it's unsustainable for ffmpeg to maintain "hobby codecs," then why are they upstreamed?

Thanks to sirhcm, tinygrad now supports all the backends in Mesa by rendering to NIR. One of the Mesa backends is NAK, and with it, we can compile to SASS. An NVIDIA free stack! https://t.co/hU1wNeqq4g
