Yet Another Russian Programmer

Pinned

I am the very model of a modern software programmer, I've knowledge every paradigm from OOP to functional, I know the quit command in vim and how to use the terminal, From grep and sed to cd 'slash', though I still find bash quite terrible


I can't thank Valve enough for their contributions to Linux gaming


How much does it cost to buy a cabin in Siberia and live the rest of my life as a hermit only making friends with the local wolf pack


How am I supposed to get job experience when even entry level jobs require years of experience now?

FFmpeg makes extensive use of hand-written assembly code for huge (10-50x) speed increases and so we are providing assembly lessons to teach a new generation of assembly language programmers. Learn more here: github.com/FFmpeg/asm-les…

Here's an example of Google's AI reporting security vulnerabilities in this codec: issuetracker.google.com/issues/4401831… We take security very seriously but at the same time is it really fair that trillion dollar corporations run AI to find security issues on people's hobby code? Then expect…

Patch to fix an issue with decoding LucasArts Smush codec, specifically the first 10-20 frames of Rebel Assault 2, a game from 1995. FFmpeg aims to play every video file ever made.

His contribution to preserving millions of undecodable video files for generations to come is monumentally underappreciated. But instead he's burnt out from dealing with the security "researchers" and corporate employees waving CVEs. We will never get talent like that back.

Arguably the most brilliant engineer in FFmpeg left because of this. He reverse engineered dozens of codecs by hand as a volunteer. Then security "researchers" and corporate employees came along repeatedly insisted "critical" security issues were fixed immediately waving their…

This guy ported DOOM to his own OS written from scratch, which is free and open source. These are people who keep me wanting to open my code editor and lock tf in.

Sending messages by 'Enter' is idiotic. You can't change my mind on this. It's one of the most dangerous UI/UX misfeatures that have taken over our tools in the last decade, all in favor of misconceptions about "stupid users" who supposedly need care from patronizing corps.…


I can't help but feel like gaming energy drinks are a malicious idea. You know what people sitting down and not exercising for hours need? That's right, sugar and caffeine.

Slack is threatening to shut off a big nonprofit teen coding community @hackclub (which is amazing and which I’ve helped for years) with just 3 days to migrate off. This would strand thousands of of the world’s smartest future coders. They are asking for $50k (a surprise 60x…

Ubuntu’s plan to replace the GNU Core Utils with Rust-based reimplementations is going exactly as poorly as predicted. Some Rust versions being 17 times slower than the battle tested GNU C / C++ version. And other Rust-based versions simply failing to work on large files.

Hearing Casey, in regret, talk about how HMH was probably a mistake, and then seeing his mental 180, is probably one of the best outcomes of @BetterSoftwareC. Casey finally realized how important his work was (and still is, we're waiting on that sequel now :P). And as…

Handmade Hero has spawned careers. It inspired @Billy_Basso who went to make @Animal_Well. It influenced @vkrajacic to venture into unknown and start his business around File Pilot. @ryanjfleury, @TheGingerBill, and many others attribute to this series a major influence on how…
