I'm curious what kind of project you are working on? I'm working on a procedural terrain generation open world game! Now it's your turn to tell me!

As always, I do image processing. I'm a G'MIC filter developer. Recently, did some code changes to my combinatorics tools to be insensitive to multi-threaded strategy.

I have no idea what that means but I think it sounds pretty cool! Anything about image processing is always fascinating to me. Especially these days when AI has become more popular and it can even draw images. It's cool how technology evolves!

It means that I made changes to code, so that it can work with any multi-threading strategy. G'MIC is a interpretative language with JIT support, and you don't have any control over automated multi-threading strategy. It can be thread 0 to thread N linearly, or even interleaved. So, the workaround is to make a image of size equal to cpus count, and do the multithreading there.

Yeah, I love image processing, I worked on it for 8+ years now.

I use the G'MIC plugin for GIMP, it's really good

Ah.. GIMP. I love GIMP I use it myself to draw sprites and UI for my games and I've used it for my social media recently!
