 Folks, I've got tired of programming and this IT stuff. I'm working 5 days a week on the day job, busy with teaching people how to program, and then I'm writing code on evenings and weekends contributing to FOSS. At the same time this Russian reality keeps getting darker and darker. I'm thinking about starting my own garage punk-rock band to play topical music in basements and subways. A friend of a friend of mine (mesalliance) created this poster of me for the future release. WDYT? I implemented 90 degree clockwise/counter-clockwise rotation algorithm for Guile-PNG. The procedures aren't perfect yet but they work. I used this article as the reference: It turned out that I can rotate an image with a much simpler algorithm when I working with a copy of an image: Just a candle drawn with GNU Guile: Also I think I need to improve my English speaking skills. Is there anyone with whom I can talk to over Jitsi or something? I can read/write English quite well (e.g. I can read English literature and carry on conversations over chats) also my understanding of spoken English is enough to watch English movies, lectures on YouTube etc. The best way of learning a language is to immerse yourself into the language. So I need more practice with fluent English speakers to become fluent myself.  @avp I really need to dig into FreeCAD. It's hard because I spent so much time wrapping my head around Fusion, but I really hate the price and vendor lock-in. A job in a foreign company would be ideal but unfortunately I'm still in Russia so it's tricky to get paid here. I'll need to relocate at some point in the future or at least find some way to get money transfers. MST allows to configure a multi-seat setup without the requirement to use a separate GPU for each seat; you can theoretically have as many seats as the sum of your GPUs outputs. The project was started because the existing multi-seat solutions (that we were aware of) were either proprietary or clunky at best back then. Currently I don't getting any funding for my work on MST but I'm hoping that the project will be of some help for people. I'm pleased to announce Guile-PNG version 0.7.2: Guile-PNG is a pure Scheme PNG (RFC 2083) format parser for GNU Guile. The library allows to create, read process and write PNG images. @avp Cool! I will try it out with my scheme compiler… probably need a few changes, but hopefully not too many. When things go bad It's helping me ... (Pardon me for possible silly errors as English is not my native language.) Guile-SSH got updated to version 0.16.4 in GNU Guix: |
