This is interesting from the standpoint of how new JVM features can be used to improve performance (what I presume the article's main purpose to have been), but the image processing improvement itself isn't head-turning. Also, we've found that libjpeg-turbo (https://libjpeg-turbo.org/) is ~5x (IIRC, can re-run my JMH benchmark if anyone wants me to) as fast for decoding JPEGs as ImageIO, so we wouldn't even...

For all but the simplest formats (basically BMP), the difficulty of implementing encoding/decoding from scratch is significant - well beyond a beginner's ability, and challenging/time-consuming even for senior developers. So, libraries are used in practice - e.g. Libpng and libjpeg-turbo. Source: over 2 years ago

Thankfully, I found Starship, a super fast, super configurable prompt written in Rust. It works with most shells, on most operating systems. - Source: dev.to / 24 days ago

Agreed, I use this in conjunction with Starship [1], both initialized specifically for Fish in the config. I love this shell so much. [1] - https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

Starship is the new spaceship, yo https://starship.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Recently, I moved off from oh-my-zsh after many users, to vanilla zsh with https://starship.rs, mainly due to the loading speed (used https://github.com/romkatv/zsh-bench to measure the speed). Still wanting to try out fish and hopefully soon! - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
