JPEG XL in DICOM would make a lot of sense. Here an old discussion.

[Jon Sneyers 🟣 @jonsneyers]

For both lossless and lossy image compression, at any desired encode speed, JPEG XL can compress better than any other image format. With libjxl 0.10, this is even more true than it already was :)

[Vishwanath Lakkundi @vishwanathl]

Want to know more about what we have been up to lately ? Be sure to attend 'Multi-Dimensional Clustering with Z-Ordering' with @RussSpitzer

Sneak Preview: JPEG XL decoding working in Chrome - 65% smaller than a JPEG at comparable quality.

JXL aims to offer better image quality at low sizes, progressive decoding, lossless JPEG recompression and more: https://t.co/sErChStUHZ

A day of WFH during the pandemic!

[Tim Cook @tim_cook]

Apple is dedicated to supporting the worldwide response to COVID-19. We’ve now sourced over 20M masks through our supply chain. Our design, engineering, operations and packaging teams are also working with suppliers to design, produce and ship face shields for medical workers.

[DB Tsai @dbtsai]

@hpcfarmer is killing at @ArchSummit keynote talking about Apple Siri Data platform.

[DB Tsai @dbtsai]

@scala_lang 2.12 will be the default Scala version used in @ApacheSpark 3.0 https://t.co/4BRLI0xTVq A great foundation to support newer JDKs such as JDK11, and more importantly, moving away old end of life Scala 2.11 helps community to focus on new language features.

[Cesar Delgado @hpcfarmer]

Thumbs up from the crowd at @SparkAISummit after @dbtsai and my presentation. Thanks everyone for coming! #SparkAISummit

[Cesar Delgado @hpcfarmer]

Come watch @dbtsai and me talk about how Siri runs @ApacheSpark at scale and some of the contribution we’ve made to improve @ApacheParquet performance. Room 17 at 11am. #SparkaAISummit @SparkAISummit

[DB Tsai @dbtsai]

@ChaseSupport Online wire transfer is such a crucial part of the system, but I kept getting `this part of our site isn't working right now` for months. Your custom service just told me it's been out for couple months, and no ETA to fix it. Such a good experience for a CPC client.

[DB Tsai @dbtsai]

My pleasure to merge PR for Mr. Netty at Apple.

[Norman Maurer @normanmaurer]

Today I was able to create my first PR against @ApacheSpark to improve performance by eliminate memory copies (while using #netty) ... Feels good to be able to contribute to OSS https://t.co/BY37e0rmfv

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.

How do @netflix optimise their recommender system? An Interview with @adeoras who will be sharing more on his work at the #DeepLearning Summit in Boston this May! https://t.co/O1eqdX0WkT #reworkLD

[DB Tsai @dbtsai]

@AskSynchrony @SYFNews is the worst credit card company I ever work with. Look at their review at https://t.co/aFk2lsmGa4 They closed my Amazon Store account without paying my rewards because some of their system issue, and I spent a lot per month and pay on time.
