Early Mac 🍎 users had .sit (Stuff-It) as the standard archiving package. Nice that someone is working to keep the decompression software alive! #datacompression #macintosh #vintagemac #vintagecomputing #stuffit #stuffitdeluxe

This is a real game changer for vintage Macintosh enthusiasts. This takes a lot of guesswork out of all the compression formats and produces an easy to use file compatible with emulators and real hardware.

Many thanks to @eric.scsi.blue for putting this together!

It happens all the time - someone buys or builds a BlueSCSI then tries to get some files to their Mac. The file is an onion of archive forma

🚀 Introducing OpenZL, a new #opensource, format-aware compression framework!

It uses a unique “graph model” for compression, enabling modular, high-performance codecs and a universal decoder - perfect for structured data at scale

Reaching 5 milions monthly downloads in PyPI is something to celebrate! 🥳 🥳

Thanks to all our users! This makes us happy for continuing working tirelessly for providing high quality compression for storage, computation for arrays, and now, for tabular data too! 🙏

In part 2 of the SIMD blog series, Folkert shows what to do when the compiler can't use the SIMD capabilities of modern CPUs effectively. We end up with a basic, but very effective, example of a custom SIMD implementation beating the compiler.
