FFmpeg devs boast of another 100x leap thanks to handwritten assembly code

news.ycombinator.com Mark Tyson 2025-07-30 15:51:41

The developers behind the FFmpeg project are again claiming major performance uplifts delivered by wielding the art of handwritten assembly code. With the latest patch applied, users should see a “100x speedup” in the cross-platform open-source media transcoding application. However, the developers were soon to clarify that the 100x claim applies to just a single function, “not the whole of FFmpeg.” BREAKING: FFmpeg 100x speedup from handwritten assembly13:55:30 <•haasn> rangedetect8_avx512: 12

The bizarre contraption, dubbed The Turbo, was developed by UK-based e-scooter company Bo, whose existing lineup targets the more premium end of the last-mile — or last 150 miles, in this case — mobility market.

Amazon’s Fire Tablets, Tested, So You Don’t Have To (2025)

The Fire HD 10 is Amazon’s best tablet. The current model dates from 2023, which means it likely will get some kind of update in 2025, but we don't expect anything more than a processor and RAM upgrade. The current Octa-core processor is plenty fast enough for everyday tasks like web browsing and watching movies, and the 3-GB of RAM helps in browsing the web with many tabs. The Fire HD 10 also has a full HD (1080p) screen, making it better for watching those Prime videos. That said, this is not

Google Pixel 10 series rumors: Everything we know so far

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-30 22:11:12

The Google Pixel 9 series features a slightly revamped design, three different Pro models, a stronger emphasis on AI, and plenty of other changes. It also represents one of the biggest deviations from the Pixel formula that we’ve seen in years. Despite several notable changes, the Pixel 9 still retains several of the most criticized aspects of the Pixel series, including limited storage options and a less competitive SoC compared to other phones.

The End of Windows 10: a toolkit for community repair groups

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-07-29 11:54:05

In October 2025, Microsoft ends free support by default for Windows 10. Its successor, Windows 11, has unnecessarily strict requirements for what computers it will support. Hundreds of millions of computers currently running Windows 10 face early obsolescence as a result. Microsoft’s options for continued support of Windows 10 cost either your money or your data, and only push the snooze button on the problem.

In computing, on the X Window System, X11 color names are represented in a simple text file, which maps certain strings to RGB color values. It was traditionally shipped with every X11 installation, hence the name, and is usually located in <X11root>/lib/X11/rgb.txt . The web colors list is descended from it but differs for certain color names.[1] Color names are not standardized by Xlib or the X11 protocol.
