I don't know what else to call the one-two punch of denoising and WebP compression except black magic ✨. I've yet to find an image where the denoised output wouldn't be strictly superior in quality to the original image — and smaller to boot!

Whoops, I think I messed up my vector math. I think my pixels may be overshooting a little and I ended up with... leaking colors?

#ImageProcessing

I'm working on some basic image processing (dilation) in Python. After implementing basic caching of pixel coordinates I'm getting 3–5x faster execution over a naive implementation of checking every pixel in every loop. However, purely as a side effect, the loops stop when there is no more data to process so manual progress tracking to break early is unnecessary. I love it when I accidentally make my code cleaner.

Next step: signed distance fields/jump flood algorithm?
