nafest··on Berlin's indoor pools
Some seem to go. Was in Berlin this week and visited the Schwimmhalle in the Velodrom and it was pretty crowded. Don’t think all swimmers were tourists.

nafest··on YouTube and Facebook Are Losing Creators to Blockchain-Powered Rivals
STEEM is full of bots and content with purchased upvotes. (most articles have more upvotes than views, funny, hey?) There are only about 60.000 active users and this number is stagnating for months. No way, that Facebook or Youtube are loosing users towards this platform.

nafest··on Show HN: Grid-based window tiling for X11 with powerful keyboard controls
I wrote a little tool that uses the Ctrl plus the numeric Keyboard to subdivide the desktop into 3x3 quadrants: https://github.com/nafest/winpad_layout

Its basically a ripoff of the macOS tool https://github.com/janten/keypad-layout

nafest··on Inline assembly in Linux
I'd recommend to use intrinsics for SIMD vectorization, which is portable to platforms that don't support the GCC syntax (e.g. Windows with MSVC). You can use Intel's Intrinsics Guide (https://software.intel.com/sites/landingpage/IntrinsicsGuide...) to find the intrinsics that corresponds to the instructions you are using.
