By compression they mean dynamic range compression, which loudens softer sounds so they are more audible.

Pop songs for example, are heavily compressed because "compressed" music sounds "better" on cheap external speakers with bad dynamic range. Kinda like increasing the saturation on a cheap TFT panel.

Rewriting Rust 2 years ago

Because the compiler ends up looking at all the functions anyway, only for the linker to discard them all.

Rewriting Rust 2 years ago

Enabling FAT LTO reduces the final binary size but it isn't a permanent fix.

GPU Debug Scopes 2 years ago

What are other cross platform (as in cross-GPU) tools other than RenderDoc that can show GPU debug info?

I found Microsoft Pix, but it's not very useful for Vulkan except showing some performance counters.

Honestly, the most welcoming open-source project I found was Blender. They are quite open to criticism, and follow ups are timely.

Only contributed a couple of fixes, but the experience was great overall.

Blender 4.2 2 years ago

I would like to thank the developers for keeping the codebase maintainable!

It was very approachable for me to fix a few UI bugs a couple of months back.

For me, contributing to a large project feels great, knowing that people will get to run my code (even though the changes are minor).

Slint GUI Toolkit 2 years ago

The 'a' in imgui stands for accessibility.

Sometimes, it's useful to have a quick and dirty GUI toolkit. I think Slint fills that gap.
