JPEG XL and the Pareto Front
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/format_overvi... is a pretty detailed but good overview. The highlights are variable size DCT (up to 128x128), ANS entropy prediction, and chroma from luminance prediction. https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/doc/encode_effort... also gives a good breakdown of features by effort level.

Compressing Text into Images
For JPEG XL, refer to its format overview [1]. In short its lossless mode uses a combination of multiple techniques: the rANS coding with an alias table, LZ77, reversible color transforms, a general vector quantization that subsumes palettes, a modified Haar transform and a learnable meta-adaptive decision tree for context modelling.
One good thing about JPEG XL is that its lossy mode also largely uses the same tool, with a major addition of specialized quantization and context modelling for low- and high-frequenty components.

Stripping Metadata
The cjxl source is here. If you spot any reason why -x strip=exif may not work, tell me.

Www Which WASM Works
The problem is that the instructions for actually running the WASM file are not that clear... the docs the author mentions shows how to compile to WASM, which is easy enough, but then here's the instructions to make that actually work in the browser:
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl/blob/main/tools/wasm_demo/R...
Yeah, you need some mysterious Python script, a JS service worker at runtime, choose whether you want the WASM or WASM_SIMD target, use a browser that supports Threads and SIMD if you chose that, make sure to serve everything with the appropriate custom HTTP headers... just reading that, I can see that to get this stuff working on non-browser WASM targets would likely require expertise in WASM, which is the point of the OP. WASM's UX is just not there yet.

First automatic JPEG-XL cloud service
https://github.com/libjxl/libjxl#usage
> Specifically for JPEG files, the default cjxl behavior is to apply lossless recompression and the default djxl behavior is to reconstruct the original JPEG file (when the extension of the output file is .jpg).
-
Why "sudo make install"?
I mean compiling a bleeding edge kicad, inkscape or jpeg-xl is easy. But will probably trash your system if you already have an older version installed.

XYB JPEG: Perceptual Color Encoding Tested
But you look at your image viewer that could have the lossless indicator? (and there is an issue open to add this indicator to the jxl files)

Heyo Everyone! - is there a win or mac software to batch convert imgs to avif?
You might want to use libjxl directly, e.g. for visually lossless images: cjxl --effort 9 --brotli_effort 11 --distance 1.0 --num_threads (nproc) --lossless_jpeg 0 input.png output.jxl on linux (if you're on windows/mac, just replace the (nproc) with the number of cpu threads you have, e.g. --num_threads 16).

Ask HN: How did you earn your first $100 and first $1k online?
First $100: Thirty copies sold of Video Hub App
First $1,000: Three hundred copies sold of my Video Hub App
https://videohubapp.com/
Though I do donate $3.50 of every sale to a cost-effective charity so in theory I made no money for a while until I bumped the price to $5 / copy.

Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System
semi-on-topic: I created Video Hub App that is like YouTube for local files: shows you a gallery with scrub-able (preview on hover) thumbnails. But does not work streaming videos to TV / tablet - only for local consumption. Hope someone finds it useful.

Generating Income from Open Source
I created Video Hub App which is MIT License
https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I also sell it for $5 and have sold just over 5,000 copies last month (5 years old app). Importantly, $3.50 of every purchase goes to a cost-effective charity, GiveWell recommended Against Malaria Foundation (see website for details).

Python GUIs
"The problem" might be that people in this thread and others get frustrated because others have different goals than them.
Of course Electron is overkill for a single-button application. But Visual Basic is absolutely going to be a headache if you want a custom GUI.
Pick the tool that's right for the job!
I build this with Electron: https://videohubapp.com/

Ask HN: Most interesting tech you built for just yourself?
Simplest File Renamer - https://www.yboris.dev/renamer & https://github.com/whyboris/Simplest-File-Renamer
I wanted to be able to quickly rename files with my text editor (using keyboard commands), so this lets me do it. Plus I share the app online for free.
Video Hub App - https://videohubapp.com/ & https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I started it just for myself, but it ended up so good I spent several more years improving it as people kept buying it (up to almost 5,000 purchases since I started).
Also wrote a couple of dev tools for myself (sharing via NPM too) - https://www.yboris.dev/

I've been data hoarding for 25 years. I have a bajillion hobbies. It's hard to stay organized.
I created Video Hub App: https://videohubapp.com/ - it shows screenshots from videos as you scrub/hover across the thumbnail.

FFmpeg 6.0
I've been so frustrated that FFprobe functionality is not part of FFmpeg.
My app extracts screenshots from videos to create a beautiful gallery of videos. But even though I include FFmpeg already, I need a 50mb FFprobe executable to be bundled with my app just so that I can determine the width, height, duration, and fps of a video file! What is it that FFprobe does that FFmpeg couldn't do with a few extra pieces of exposed API?

Those making $500/month on side projects in 2023 – Show and tell
Created Video Hub App (that will be 5 years old next month). I sell it for $5 and $3.50 of each purchase goes to the cost-effective charity Against Malaria Foundation (See GiveWell.org for details).
It was averaging around 100 purchases per month, though it's lower over the last year as I've not had time to release new updates (moving to another state is challenging).
https://videohubapp.com/ - Think of it like YouTube for videos on your computer. Browse, search, and organize your videos

Ask HN: What is the most impactful thing you've ever built?
Built Video Hub App that almost 5,000 people have purchased. I was a math teacher, became a web dev 6 years ago, built this 5 years ago. Most proceeds go to charity. Very minor by comparison to others, but I'm just starting out ;)
https://videohubapp.com/ && https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
What I did that is most impactful is that I've been giving at least 10% of my income to cost-effective charities for over 10 years now (see Giving What We Can - thousands of others do the same). This amounts to almost $100,000 given to charity which translates to thousands of people protected from malaria for many years of their lives.

Ask HN: What's a good business model for selling standalone software
My personal model for my commercial software: charityware - require a payment but made most proceeds go to my favorite (cost-effective) charity.
I'm getting about 100 purchases ($500/month, donating $350 of that) with my Video Hub App - https://videohubapp.com/ - which is also open source - https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App
I wrote about charityware a few years ago: https://medium.com/@whyboris/charityware-doing-good-with-pro...
