when i disappear for a week or two just know that im LOCKED IN

made some progress on my new canvas ui project! + resizable panels + pixel and percentage sizing options + button elements + gap elements for spacing + hidpi support next steps: - text elements - scrollable layouts - layouts with wrapping

@lordofborg yeah, for interactive webapps especially, relying on the dom feels like shooting yourself in the foot once complexity starts growing

got tired of slow webapps so i decided to start working on an entirely canvas-based js framework

@verrsane guess wagies can't relate

@hikipilling Damn I ain’t got time to be doing all that 😔

@paulo_hfs oh yeah, seems like they do something similar but with wasm. and thanks :D

@hikipilling i mean, the approach to render ui btw good luck!

@itsquibloo thanks :D

@hikipilling This could be sick. Also nice rice

@verrsane arch with hyprland! had the same rice on artix too x.com/hikipilling/st…

@hikipilling Yeah what os is that?

@paulo_hfs nope, new framework i'm making from scratch

@hikipilling i'm wrong or it's flutter?

@faculaut thats my wife bro

@verrsane u like it?

@hikipilling Wow u riced tf out of ur setup

@atriiy2 hmm, i haven't gotten that error at all during this project. are you talking about gstreamer by chance? because for this project i'm using mp4box.js and webcodecs, not gst

@hikipilling Ohh, I get it. Thanks for sharing! 🥰 btw, will you open source your code? I actually also want to implement the seeking behavior like you did, but the pipeline keeps throwing GOP timestamps error, even after I flushing the entire pipeline data stream🤔

HIKIVIDEO HLS work in progress

@atriiy2 u mean like when seeking outside of the buffered area? i just fetch the new segments, extract samples, decode, and replace the buffered frames. the 3 segments i keep loaded always surround the most recently requested timestamp so this doesn't happen during regular playback

@hikipilling Great solution! But how do you handle cases where the target frame isn't available yet? 🤔

@atriiy2 each of the videos has its own frame buffer containing the decoded previous, current, and next segments. whenever i need a specific frame i just binary search thru the buffer to find it. so all i have to do for frame-by-frame seeking is change the timestamp :D

@hikipilling Amazing!🤩 How did you implement the frame changes? Manipulate the pipeline on the fly?

@startupmillyair i feel like the new pfp is exactly how you look in real life

the American flag background is a cheatcode. I can change my pfp to whatever and as long as the flag is there, people will remember who i am.

@atriiy2 i remember struggling through the official docs when i was first getting started, having all this in one place will be really helpful to beginners. great article!

My new article on GStreamer with Rust! 😋 Introducing the basic concepts and examples of this great framework in Rust. atriiy.dev/blog/awakening…

@realzvqle many such cases!

fill up the 3 gallon bucket pour it into the 5 gallon bucket fill up the 3 gallon bucket pour it into the 5 gallon bucket (you have 1 gallon left over) empty the 5 gallon bucket pour the remaining gallon into the 5 gallon bucket fill up the 3 gallon bucket pour it into the 5 gallon bucket, now you have 4 in total did i get it?

Can you solve today's classic "Microsoft 90s Interview Question? ". Hints in the comments. You are asked to *precisely* measure 4 gallons of water using a 3-gallon and 5-gallon buckets only. How do you do it? Share once you figure it out!
