Engineers behind Digimax

2013 年的 12 月,台北的天空依舊缺乏聖誕氣氛,不過這樣也好,這表示未來,”營造寒冬的聖誕節慶”還有開發的空間。 一方面訝異於今年消逝得過份的快,得趕緊來回顧一下年初的目標做到了幾成; 另一方面,民國 103 就要到來了,是馬年也,第三輪了! 趁著大家都還在的這幾天,拍張合照吧。 這是太極影音作品背後的團隊,技術團隊。 不管別人怎麼認定”技術”,也不需理會第三方認定的 credits 要怎麼安插這些技術人員的位置, 他們與我在 2013 年,撇開意外流局的,一起執行過或中或小的 TechMeet 的夥伴。 ...

對我來說,有效益的文章

有些文章,寫的時候,有考究,有放上原文出處,有引用前人睿智的論述, 有設計符合情境的示意圖,有章節順序,有主副論,有有效的實驗或佐證, 有發人省思的結尾,…。 這類的文章,就特別容易打進我的腦袋。最近才發覺,這和一篇好的學術論文還挺像的 :D — Shuen-Huei Guan (@drakeguan) November 10, 2013 Writing my monthly articles PS. 對了,我有說過,相較於直線簿這種方便書寫文章的筆記本,我更鍾情於格子本嗎? 因為它方方正正,提供了想像空間上的座標與規矩,不會暗示或強迫你要寫出公整的文字。 重點是,工作時,我想用格子本;參加國際會議時,我想用它;胡亂塗鴨時,我想用它。 拿個東西來類比的話。直線簿就像 MS PowerPoint,萬能得很,通透性很高; 格子本就像 Apple Keynote,給你的就是一個畫布,純脆而簡約。 我喜愛簡易而優雅~

自學,第二語言,免費,終身!

Up until this point in the Bible, the whole world had one language - one common speech for all people. The people of the earth became skilled in construction and decided to build a city with a tower that would reach to heaven. By building the tower they wanted to make a name for themselves and also prevent their city from being scattered. God came to see their city and the tower they were building. He perceived their intentions, and in His infinite wisdom, He knew this “stairway to heaven” would only lead the people away from God. He noted the powerful force within their unity of purpose. As a result, God confused their language, causing them to speak different languages so they would not understand each other. By doing this, God thwarted their plans. He also scattered the people of the city all over the face of the earth. ...

MPEG1 decoding is a myth

This is the final programming assignment for the course, Information Theory and Coding Technique , I took in this semester. Implement a MPEG video decoder (I-frame, IP-frames, IPB-frames ) with UI (display) [1]. Correctly read the MPEG clips (with I, P, B frames) [2] and skip frames (e.g., B-frames) which your decoder doesn’t support. With favors of codec experts from CMLab, I did finish finally it w/o any brain gotcha. What caught my eyes is the tool I used, GLYUVPlay , a Mac raw YUV player with some interesting function like: ...

PyConTW 2013 小分享

假如所有的人,在談論一件事時, 都會引用同樣的論點,使用相同的幾張圖, 或甚至是說著一樣恭維的話, 在這樣的前提下,你要怎麼提出你自己的觀點,讓人眼睛為之一亮? 我的作法是,先從換掉圖開始。於是我選了這張。 ...
