After spending a day or two in the guts of zlib, the zlib-ng fork and downstream optimizations that are stuck in vendor repos as left me a little bewildered and confused.

If you're a compiler geek you may have heard about inline functions. Have you heard about outlining? Read the blog post by fellow #linaro #tcwg college Yvan: https://www.linaro.org/blog/reducing-code-size-with-llvm-machine-outliner-on-32-bit-arm-targets/

The #GSoC student application deadline is tomorrow (April 13th). Make sure any #qemu project drafts are marked as final before the deadline passes. Mentors will contact students following the deadline to arrange interviews and discus the application.

I may have switch from #house to #lofi for my coding music next week. Seems to fit well.

Well TIL what Ⓟ means thanks to a certain re-recording artist.

I wrote checkpatch-mode for #emacs a long time ago: https://github.com/stsquad/checkpatch-mode - it has exactly 4 followers on github but I never submitted it to #melpa. Should I?

So I'll credit the #SnyderCut with being a more coherent story with better motivation of the league's actions. There is still to too much slow motion and the epilogue is a little gratuitous. It was nice to have some back story for the non-solo film characters.

Oh of course, it's internet lie day. It gets harder to tell apart from every other day each year.

Have #google finally turned off the old #jabber interface for hangouts? I can no longer get #bitlbee to connect to it in either native or #libpurple forms.

The #QEMU Google Summer of Code applications are open. You have until April 13th to apply. See the wiki for project ideas: https://wiki.qemu.org/Google_Summer_of_Code_2021

Allez le Bleus! 😉

Provisioning the new #qemu #aarch64 CI machine from #equinix and I find that #snap has a native-comp version of #emacs available. #winning.

New fan and thermal compound and now I have to actually look at #bpytop to see if my machine is actually compiling with all the cores 😆
