I am DJ'ing at #AfrikaBurn #Decompression tomorrow, I will be playing a #vinyl only #DJ set at the “Hyperbaric Chamber” from 21:30 (SA time GMT+2) onwards.
Those who cannot make it in person can tune in to Radio Free Tankwa at radiofreetankwa.com or Shouting Fire at shoutingfire.com both of which will be broadcasting live.
I have my funkiest vinyls lined up so tune or drop in!

Are you serious about on ?

Then you probably used derived from . It's an amazing store of information about developing raw pictures.

But there's one problem.

It's write-only code. My mind goes blank when I read it.

Thankfully, someone started a readable library for raw files, called :

gitlab.freedesktop.org/libopen

I ported Panasonic and made it possible to understand :D

( plz package it)

Archived my oozle repository on #GitHub because of incompatibilities with new versions. It was an attempt to make decompressing #Oodle open source and easier to implement in #Rust projects.

Made oodle-sys and oodle-safe instead which binds to the shared library: github.com/sehnryr/oodle-safe

GitHubGitHub - sehnryr/oodle-safe: This is a thin, safe abstraction built on top of the bindings from oodle-sys.This is a thin, safe abstraction built on top of the bindings from oodle-sys. - sehnryr/oodle-safe

Happy to announce that I’m back in my hotel after a bout of #Decompression #Sickness (#DCS) AKA the #Bends at the weekend. We think it was the culmination of six consecutive dives over three days between 38m and 41m on the MV #Zenobia in #Larnaca in #Cyprus. Was transferred to the #hyperbaric #chamber in #Paphos General #Hospital for three chamber sessions and two nights stay. Sincere #gratitude to all the hospital and chamber staff who made me welcome and took care of me.

Broken by the bends: the deadly toll on Honduras’s Indigenous lobster divers

More than 4,000 #Indigenous #Miskito #divers have in recent years suffered disabling injuries as a consequence of #decompression #sickness – the equivalent of roughly one in every nine men above the age of 14 in the entire department. At least 400 have died, and countless others have been lost at sea.

arXiv.orgAccelerating JPEG Decompression on GPUsThe JPEG compression format has been the standard for lossy image compression for over multiple decades, offering high compression rates at minor perceptual loss in image quality. For GPU-accelerated computer vision and deep learning tasks, such as the training of image classification models, efficient JPEG decoding is essential due to limitations in memory bandwidth. As many decoder implementations are CPU-based, decoded image data has to be transferred to accelerators like GPUs via interconnects such as PCI-E, implying decreased throughput rates. JPEG decoding therefore represents a considerable bottleneck in these pipelines. In contrast, efficiency could be vastly increased by utilizing a GPU-accelerated decoder. In this case, only compressed data needs to be transferred, as decoding will be handled by the accelerators. In order to design such a GPU-based decoder, the respective algorithms must be parallelized on a fine-grained level. However, parallel decoding of individual JPEG files represents a complex task. In this paper, we present an efficient method for JPEG image decompression on GPUs, which implements an important subset of the JPEG standard. The proposed algorithm evaluates codeword locations at arbitrary positions in the bitstream, thereby enabling parallel decompression of independent chunks. Our performance evaluation shows that on an A100 (V100) GPU our implementation can outperform the state-of-the-art implementations libjpeg-turbo (CPU) and nvJPEG (GPU) by a factor of up to 51 (34) and 8.0 (5.7). Furthermore, it achieves a speedup of up to 3.4 over nvJPEG accelerated with the dedicated hardware JPEG decoder on an A100.
