I have only tested this on Windows yet. But keep in mind that the C build gets slowed down by cygwin emulation, were as Rust is a native build.

I found what making cheddar slow btw:

Literal Parsing

it is parser :D

mınxomaτ

The C project uses clang with Ofast et al. btw.

betseg

@Downgoat That's one big onebox.

TuxCopter

@Downgoat Then it's only startup time

wizzwizz4

@Downgoat Make parser fast again.

Downgoat

22:01

@TuxCopter Yes

and for each test is restarts parser so yeah

wizzwizz4

@Downgoat Seriously though, you should create a bytecode.

Downgoat

I should try with precompiled bytecode cheddar

wizzwizz4

Python does that.

Downgoat

@wizzwizz4 already done

@mınxomaτ Wow, you're not kidding

mınxomaτ

22:01

@Mego And that's without any remote crates

That's ridiculous

mınxomaτ

The executable size is insane, too.

Conor O'Brien

when trying the online rust program thingy, I get this:

rustc 1.15.0-beta.3 (a035041ba 2017-01-07)

timeout triggered!

So it's called Rust because your computer rusts while it compiles

Conor O'Brien

I wonder if rust is the cause of xkcd 303 "compiling"

mınxomaτ

@ConorO'Brien That's probably just someone who forgot "-j" when makeing.

TuxCopter

Yes. Rust needs so much CPU power that the humidity in the air is electrolysed, and the oxygen produced rusts the computer.

mınxomaτ

@TuxCopter 10/10 science.

Downgoat

@mınxomaτ TIL this is a thing O_O TYVM

betseg

You didn't know -j? How did you live up until this point?

mınxomaτ

22:05

@betseg Very slowly

TuxCopter

I totally forgot -j is a thing

Downgoat

@betseg I ate existing cheese while new cheese built

TuxCopter

@Downgoat If now Cheddar is rapid to build then it's no longer cheddar because cheddar is long to age

Downgoat

100000000000/4 is still a big number

Anonymous

@ConorO'Brien No, programmers being bored is the cause of that :P

mınxomaτ

22:07

When I get bored I just work on a new idea and totally forget about whatever is compiling.

Conor O'Brien

@Mego true lol.

Downgoat

btw, can anyone can guess what a HandleApiCall function would do in context of Node.js

@Downgoat Handles an API call?

I was serious about the TouchUp suggestion

TrojanByAccident

lol I knew what he meant as soon as they asked it

Conor O'Brien

or s/i/I/

mınxomaτ

@Mego This sounds like 2007 software. Also too similar to TuneUp (crapware).

Downgoat

22:13

Restoregoat is the most progressive name any software will have to-date I can bet you that

mınxomaτ

Is there some roman or greek god of, I don't know, reconstruction?

TuxCopter

AFAIK no

mınxomaτ

@Downgoat That's a different kind of paint: lowes.com/pd/…

Downgoat

@mınxomaτ Vulcan god might be close enough

mınxomaτ

Too AMD

@Downgoat Vulcan is the Roman name for Hephaestus

yesterday, by mınxomaτ

This is a demo of the new "low quality" mode for my inpainter. The image is about 2MP and processing time is reduced several orders of magnitude compared to it's big brother. This took about 10s to process.

TrojanByAccident

22:16

I'm Res = ImRes = Image Restorer?

Dennis

@DJMcMayhem I prefer choppers. :P

Downgoat

@Dennis Refer to @TuxCopter in that case :P

TrojanByAccident

@Dennis Apache is the way to go

Downgoat

@TrojanByAccident relevant

TrojanByAccident

@Downgoat That was, indeed, what I was referring to :P

@wat Chat Exchange

@TrojanByAccident um no

same issue

TrojanByAccident

Why?

StackChat?

wat

too close to stack cats (and in @TuxCopter's case it is the same as stack cats)

Helka Homba

@Mego Moderators are less likely to moderate other moderators as strongly as they would normal users

TuxCopter

Why in my case?

Q: What is considered "noise" in The Nineteenth Byte?

tl;dr We need to agree on what is or is not noise in The Nineteenth Byte. Room owners shouldn't determine the guidelines for noise. Nor should they have the burden of doing so alone. There are three types of discouraged content on The Nineteenth Byte: Pure noise Off-topic content Random cont...

@HelkaHomba Citation needed. I like to believe that our moderators are above the political nonsense of the "code of blue" and related concepts.

@TuxCopter French I guess

I may have you mixed up with someone

TuxCopter

@wat ChatExchange is already a thing btw

github.com/Manishearth/ChatExchange

wat

@TuxCopter yeah that's another reason not to use that name

TuxCopter

22:33

What's the problem with StackChat?

Mistah Figgins

It's site agnostic, correct?

wat

@TuxCopter Actually that sounds good. Thanks

Mistah Figgins

I agree

TuxCopter

uhh

flawr

@mınxomaτ Wow that looks cool! Did you publish it somewhere?

TuxCopter

22:34

4 mins ago, by wat

too close to stack cats (and in @TuxCopter's case it is the same as stack cats)

wat

@TuxCopter you are French, correct?

TuxCopter

Yes

wat

I was thinking about how chat means cat in French.

mınxomaτ

@flawr It's just an add-on to my answer to you challenge. I'm reimplementing this in a cleaner way. Should be ready in a few days.

TuxCopter

In what way is that a problem???

wat

22:36

not a problem

I was just noticing that it is similar to the name of an esolang

that could be a nice pun for the PPCG users

flawr

@mınxomaτ I'm looking forward to that=)

mınxomaτ

I'm hoping to work with the the person who taught me much of my assembly knowledge. Optimizing for speed this time.

With some of the beefier CPUs, you can store whole image patches in the L-cache. That's insane.

Mistah Figgins

@mınxomaτ It does look pretty cool

mınxomaτ

Oh, wait a second, I have another demo of that.

Helka Homba

@Mego Well, there's no easy way to tell is there, since mod actions are not totally transparent. I don't really think it's a big deal either since our mods are pretty open and this is a relatively meager place to exercise power. But it's just human nature that you wouldn't report your buddy for running a red light but you might report another car that almost hit you.

TrojanByAccident

@HelkaHomba So really you're just making an unfounded assumption that our mods don't hold themselves to the same standards as the rest of us. Nice.

Our mods have much more integrity than that.

Pixel-Perfect reconstruction of image with smaller issues (like many small letters).

Uhg, the SE chat makes this a lossy JPG :/

Anonymous

@mınxomaτ That's really impressive

flawr

@mınxomaτ I hope you make a more or less user friendly version of your software, a relative started digitizing a ton of old family photos/slides.

mınxomaτ

22:48

I'm building a UI. But at this time Windows only.

flawr

But some of them are damaged quite a lot. And this looks way better than what I've managed to do with other photo editing software.

Mistah Figgins

Wow

mınxomaτ

@flawr I would love to have some real test cases for future presets!

wat

I think my French course is a little confused/enthusiastic about the USA

Anonymous

I think I have an old, damaged photo digitized somewhere

mınxomaτ

22:51

Well, to be fair, the US is usually pretty confused about France, too.

TrojanByAccident

@mınxomaτ Jeez, how many times did you save that picture?

flawr

@mınxomaτ Well I'd have to ask which ones could actually be published first:)

mınxomaτ

@TrojanByAccident Uh, once. If you don't count the intentionally destroyed copies.

@flawr Of course.

flawr

@mınxomaτ Is it correct that you always need a separate mask that masks the flaws?

mınxomaτ

Not for this variant.

TrojanByAccident

22:53

@mınxomaτ Then this ELA seems off

mınxomaτ

@TrojanByAccident You downloaded the JPEG. I uploaded a lossless PNG, which imgur converted.

All the test pics are from Pexels.

TrojanByAccident

@mınxomaτ ah.

mınxomaτ

@flawr Well it depends what you want to remove. This variant needs some kind of consistency in the flaw (a stark color, luminosity, brightness or contrast difference). The EBII one is more for bigger patches (i.e. it's a "magic erase").

Helka Homba

@Mego No. I'm explaining what I think noɥʇʎԀʎzɐɹƆ was talking about in his comment. I think our mods are fine and not unethical, but I also think they (and anyone else) is capable of becoming unethical, even if only in small ways.

Anonymous

@HelkaHomba The way you stated it made it sound like you yourself held that opinion.

mınxomaτ

22:57

@flawr But I'm generally planning to do a short video tutorial of using this software should it ever be finished.

flawr

@mınxomaτ Cool=) Do you already have parts of it online somwhere? Or some blog where we can see what you're working on?

mınxomaτ

No. Because I'm lazy.

@flawr I could - of course - also create a Lightroom plugin and charge copious amounts of money.

flawr

@mınxomaτ You could, but why would anyone do that=)

mınxomaτ

Right. I'd have to deal with customer service. shudders

flawr

Haha=) But how about an addon for GIMP?

mınxomaτ

I really, really dislike GIMP.

flawr

23:08

Why?

TrojanByAccident

I really, really love GIMP. What's wrong with it?

Other than it not having shape creation

mınxomaτ

I didn't say there's something wrong with it.

flawr

I don't like it too much either, but mainly because I'm used to working with commercial software and I'm always looking for the features GIMP doesn't actually have (yet).

TrojanByAccident

@flawr Such as?

mınxomaτ

I'm more at home in the vector world anyway. So it's mainly InDesign or Inkscape for me. Paint.NET (with tons of plugins) on Windows, Pixelmator on macOS for raster images.

flawr

23:10

@TrojanByAccident Non-destructive editing. e.g. adjusting a filter you applied previously after you've already applied another filter.

Or what is called "smart objects" in photoshop.

wat

@TrojanByAccident THIS

TrojanByAccident

@flawr Ah, yeah, you would have to undo up to that point

flawr

What kind of shape creation do you mean?

wat

@flawr like

TrojanByAccident

Such as making circles or squares

wat

23:11

no circles

flawr

@TrojanByAccident Which is very annoying, and does not really let you work productively in my opinion.

wat

no triangles or w/e

flawr

@TrojanByAccident Get corresponding brushes?

TrojanByAccident

@flawr Too lazy :P

Helka Homba

@TrojanByAccident You can make circular/square selections and fill them in

mınxomaτ

23:12

Oh, I forgot something. I absolutely love Affinity Designer.

wat

@HelkaHomba True.

TrojanByAccident

@HelkaHomba That requires more effort

wat

But what if you need a triangle?

mınxomaτ

Slowly fading from Inkscape/InDesign to Affinity.

wat

@mınxomaτ is it on linux

mınxomaτ

23:12

Probably not.

wat

then I'll stick to gimp and inkscape, thanks

TrojanByAccident

@wat Make a new image, make a square, cut part of it off, copy-paste back

wat

@TrojanByAccident Meh.

TrojanByAccident

but once again, too much effort for me :P

Anyone here have experience with an intuos?

flawr

@TrojanByAccident I know @Lynn has a drawing tablet, but I don't remember which one.

TrojanByAccident

@flawr Hmm.

I'm looking at buying the Wacom Intuos Touch on Amazon

it comes with some software

wat

@TrojanByAccident Not an intuos, but my school has 10 Wacom tablets

TrojanByAccident

but I'm not sure if there's a better one that's cheaper, or if it's better to get a different tablet and get the software separate

So In my new language, Del|m|t, there's a delimiter that the code gets parsed by, and each token is a command. The delimiter is subject to change over the course of the program. My problem is that I need a way to specify what the starting delimiter is. Ideally, I would like the user to be able to specify a regex, and not just a single character.

Should I have the regex just be on the first line before a newline?

Or would another method be better?

mınxomaτ

I think someone could make a sitcom out of Egyptian gods: gods-and-monsters.com/egyptian-gods-and-goddesses.html

Mistah Figgins

Is there a character that is/never can be used in a regex within ASCII 0-127?

would space work?

mınxomaτ

Anybody Irish here? How in the world do you pronounce "Airmed/Airmid"?

Hm. Apparently ar-ah-mij.

Helka Homba

@mınxomaτ Been watching the grand tour?

mınxomaτ

Some. Yeah.

I really don't like the driver or Braincrash, but all in all I like it.

Of course, for IP reasons, "The Producers" is now "The Director", which is mildly amusing.

Pavel

@MistahFiggins Command line argument

Mistah Figgins

@Pavel Ah I had forgot about those, yes that would work perfectly

Thanks

Helka Homba

@mınxomaτ I had high hopes for it but yeah, the lap times and celebrity things are too cringey. And I can't stand how planned the trip/race/external segments feel.

mınxomaτ

I don't really care. Top Gear always was extremely scripted. You only realize how much if you've seen both UK and US Top Gear. Many of the episodes have the exact same script, so you see how little both shows actually improvised.

TuxCopter

23:43

'night

mınxomaτ

TGT is just a bit more casual for me. It doesn't care too much about itself. Also remember how the original Top Gear reboot took forever to find it's pace.

In other news: I've been enjoying season two of The Reassembler.

Helka Homba

@mınxomaτ I mean like, Top Gear (when it was Clarkson/Hammond/May) did genuine races across countries, or at least it looked genuine (and I can make allowances for letting camera cars catch up and stuff). But Grand Tour does a race that starts serious but ends with obviously planned powerslides through shipping containers and "killing" one of the presenters.

@mınxomaτ That's a good, cathartic show

mınxomaτ

I always liked May. I also recommend the three James & Oz's Adventure seasons.

Helka Homba

I've seen that too, hilarious! (and informative about alcohol)

mınxomaτ

Beer & Whisky was the best IMO
