The documentation for this image processing library by @vruba is one of the most interesting things I've read in weeks:

https://github.com/celoyd/potato/blob/main/README.md
https://github.com/celoyd/potato/blob/main/docs/concepts.md

Philosophical discussion of the nature of seeing and what am image is vs a map, fascinating technical details about how satellite imaging works and why it looks as bad as it often does, a lot of really thoughtful conversation about engineering and aesthetic process, and even an amusing unit of measurement — grams per terrapixel.

@vruba @dymaxion Sick! I love finding amazing works of writing in unexpected places. In a similar vein, I once found the most perfect explanations of image resampling algorithms in a guide for anime fansubbing. https://guide.encode.moe/encoding/masking-limiting-etc.html
Masking, Limiting, and Related Functions

@suhacker @dymaxion This is a very flattering comparison – thank you, and I will be reading this with relish.
