Weird they don't name Jon Sneyers - a person pivotal in creation of JPEG XL

Here's a blog post by him: https://cloudinary.com/blog/2026-the-year-of-jpeg-xl

No, it is normal. Similarly Jon's blog post does not name any of us by name.

Google Mosquitoes - Debugging Florida

For piano, look at Pianoteq - 50MB of math code that simulates $100k+ pianos, letting you adjust and fine-tune numerous parameters (lid position, microphone placement, etc), no sound-banks used! https://www.modartt.com/

Please consider adding a screenshot directly into the README (rather than a separate link).

Also maybe a single paragraph at the top describing the project rather than jumping into `install`.

Thanks for your feedback. I added the screenshot and a short description inside it.

I've wanted to code a VR game for juggling but never found time for it.

Feels like it would be super-easy-to-code and probably would be lucrative. Implement "slow down time" so people can practice juggling in slow motion, add some other features like catch radius and bias towards consistent height of throws and you've got a great game!

I made a 2d game like this once for, of all things, Palm Pilot. You could tap for the apex of each ball throw.

My 8-year-old video browser software Video Hub App - shows thumbnails from video as you hover with your mouse. Working on adding minor improvements before I finally get to the (optional) facial recognition "search by face similarity" feature.

Related: my favorite viewer is diff2html-cli which lets you see the diff in your browser:

https://diff2html.xyz/

You might also like webdiff, which does something similar https://github.com/danvk/webdiff (I built this years ago and still use it every day.)

my favorite online diff viewer so far is https://diffs.dev/, very straightforward. Diff2html looks cool too given it can work in terminal

I've personally settled on running diff's output into diff-highlight (supplied with Git!) and into ansi2html (one of them; there are many versions of it, and you can write one yourself in about 20 minutes, you only really need very few escape sequences handled, and then wrangle with CSS for additional 2 hours), and calling xdg-open on the temporary file. A neat pipeline, all in all.

Why not just use Araxis Merge or Beyond Compare?

Some alternatives to paid solutions:

WinMerge is excellent, open source, and while Windows-only, it runs well in Wine without needing any tweaks.

Kdiff is open source, cross-platform, and while I personally don’t love it, it supports 4-pane merge, which is quite ergonomic and rare.

I ported my favorite pre-2000 game into LÖVE -- was easy and fun

Gravity Wars - turn based artillery game in space (planets' gravity affect shot path)

I had someone steal my MIT open source software (that I sell for $5) and they are selling it for $11 or more. My software is 8+ years old; they are lying to the customers that they have been developing theirs for years. Very frustrating.

mine: https://videohubapp.com/

my GitHub: https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App

grifter: https://videocliplibrary.com/

Also you didn't mention you send $3.5 of the $5 to charity! Their Discord has three members, so perhaps it's not very popular? The "creator" lists themselves as "Peoples Grocers" and their website is a weird not-even-half-assed copy of Simon Willison's Weblog: https://peoplesgrocers.com/

Yikes. jfyi @simonw

How can someone steal MIT-licensed software? The license says:

Permission is hereby granted [...] to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software [...]

If you don't want other people to be able to sell it, don't use an MIT license.

The license also says:

The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

If the copyright attribution for the original code is missing, that violates the license. MIT is not a "no rights reserved" license like 0BSD or Unlicense.

Looks like something I can definitely use. I just bought your app. Hope the thief's computer crashes and they don't have backups.

JPEG XL is a superior replacement for JPEG. It is better in basically every way to JPEG.

Except compatibility, but the biggest gap is browser support, which is in the process of getting closed. Chrome has shipped JXL support behind a flag. Firefox are in the process of implementing support.

In Chrome you can enable JXL from here: chrome://flags/#enable-jxl-image-format

You can track Firefox progress from here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1539075
