Why Natively Integrated AI is Changing How I Code?

A few weeks ago, I was handed a massive legacy Python codebase to refactor. Normally, this means days of just tracing dependencies, reading stale documentation,

Developer's Cheat Sheet to AI Frameworks for App Development

Choosing the right AI framework is the difference between a prototype that stays on your laptop and a product that scales to millions. Whether you need the massive

H.264 in Broadcasting: From ATSC to DVB Standards

Ah, greetings from the quiet corners of digital technology. In our modern world, where television signals travel through the air like whispers on the wind, H.264

H.264 in Real-Time Communication: WebRTC and Video Conferencing

In our connected world, where distances seem to shrink with every video call, the technology behind smooth conversations matters more than ever. H.264, that reliable

Parsing H.264 Bitstreams: A Practical Guide with Sample Code

In our previous post, we demystified the structure of H.264 bitstreams, focusing on NAL units and slices as the foundational building blocks. We saw how NAL units

Understanding H.264's Slice and NAL Units: Bitstream Structure Demystified

In the world of video compression, H.264 (also known as AVC or MPEG-4 Part 10) stands out for its efficiency and widespread use. While we've previously explored

Hardware-Accelerated H.264 Decoding: DXVA, VAAPI, VideoToolbox, and More

H.264 (AVC) has been the workhorse of video compression for nearly two decades, powering everything from Blu-ray discs to streaming services. While software decoding

H.264 vs. H.265 (HEVC): Key Differences in Decoding

Video compression standards have evolved rapidly to keep up with the demand for higher quality and more efficient streaming. H.264, also known as AVC, has been a

Entropy Coding in H.264: CAVLC vs. CABAC Explained

In video compression, entropy coding is the final lossless stage that squeezes out the last bits of redundancy from the data before it hits the bitstream. H.264/AVC,

Deep Dive: Motion Compensation and Sub-Pixel Precision in H.264

In the world of video compression, H.264 (also known as AVC or MPEG-4 Part 10) stands out for its efficient handling of motion in video sequences. Motion compensation

An Introduction to H.264 Video Decoding

H.264, also known as MPEG-4 Advanced Video Coding (AVC), is one of the most widely used video compression standards in the world. Developed jointly by the ITU-T

No sé por dónde comenzar, la verdad. Desde siempre me ha fascinado aprender, desarrollar teorías y crear historias. Me atrae aventurarme en mundos desconocidos,

Let's Understand CPU vs Memory (+Node.js Examples)

Imagine your computer is like a super-smart person who can do all sorts of amazing things, like playing your favorite games and showing you funny videos. To do these

Everyone Wants The Senior, Nobody Wants To Nourish One

We live in an age in which a learning mentality is marketized as awesome and a must, but when the music starts nobody wants to be a teacher. In today's tech landscape,

DSA (Medium) - Graph - Keys and Rooms (Python, Typescript & Go)

There are n rooms labeled from 0 to n - 1 and all the rooms are locked except for room 0. Your goal is to visit all the rooms. However, you cannot enter a locked

Why Gleam Wins Over F#

In the heart of every software engineer, a wish to learn and master an open source tool that isn't centrally backed by anyone, but for the people and by the people,

sudo rogue - v1.0.4 - git commit -am "genesis"

The sterile weight of the NDA lingered long after Joshua had signed it. Days bled into a week, each sunrise finding the knot of unease tighter in his stomach. It

DSA (Medium) - Binary Search Tree - Delete Node in a BST (Python, Typescript & Go)

Given a root node reference of a BST and a key, delete the node with the given key in the BST. Return the root node reference (possibly updated) of the BST. Basically,

DSA (Easy) - Binary Search Tree - Search in a Binary Search Tree (Python, Typescript & Go)

You are given the root of a binary search tree (BST) and an integer val. Find the node in the BST that the node's value equals val and return the subtree rooted
