commonly remember 4 things, rather than 7. losing focus or attention is easy.

from just nine people recorded for ten hours!

The Infinitely Large Napkin is a light but mostly self-contained introduction to a large amount of higher math.

Standard for AI service discovery. Basically a jdon file listing AI-related files with "type": "application/ai-catalog+json".

A highlight is the rants in giant red text

very clear and helpful explanation

simple cms to edit static sites. Project seems relatively mature, admin UI is very basic but does the job.

The default config is part of the documentation, it contains all trivial configuration keys with comments. Please read the default config!

Very useful guide. Before this I had been looking at the commands page which was comprehensive but confusing.

I found their interactive onboarding very good. Shows you around the UI with a few intro scenes and you set/change different values.

Dating audio/video recordings using electrical network frequency analysis - things plugged into or near mains also record fluctuations in power frequency.

Originally heard about in this article from 2010, and doesn’t seem to be used much outside the UK.

First time I heard of Tyler. He seemed super weird! Diversity monoculture quote jumped out at me.

That in some ways, we’re investing in literally a monoculture of diversity. And that’s a little dangerous.
Like every city has restaurants. I saw a Guam restaurant on Mission [Street] when I was walking today. I ate at a Cambodian restaurant. Two days before, I was at Mandalay, a Burmese restaurant. And many cities have these. And we call it “diversity,” but we have to be careful also not to just be fooling ourselves.

git stash save has been deprecated. Instead you use git stash push, which is nothing at all like git push. kind of makes sense but come on, git.

Also good examples from stack overflow:

• git stash list
• git stash pop stash@{n} - apply stash by number, then drop it
• git stash apply stash^{/named-stash} - apply means keep the stash

Challenges of developing modern products, as components get more complicated and potential for lower reliability in SoCs.

You’d think that the tools got better but… honestly? Not really. The complexity of the chips has grown dramatically faster than the ability of the tools to simplify development.

Bad radio reception and balance issues seem like dealbreakers

Good pitch

The rare good newish stackoverflow answer. Cool getting a status update from the guy working on navigator.bluetooth.getDevices.

Evenyone talking about pierre lander

https://www.raphaelsalaja.com/ had a cool animation on twitter
that uses https://paper.design/

Lot of people like https://rive.app/
Meanwhile I never even try Lottie or AfterEffects

Still not sure how to send program change to change canvases with MIDI

if you are reading this, you are procrastinating.

The modern equivalent of a StackOverflow question with upvotes but no answer. At least then you could hope. This reply for “go somewhere else, where the answer won’t be visible”, and an invite link that is broken now.

Why can’t I automatically activate a uv venv after creating it? Surely just run .venv/bin/activate?! Apparently not.

Some of these stats seem impossible. 28% increase in bankruptices??!

On the lifespan of different storage types. Was reminded a bit of Diaspora. Or just had my data hoarding validated a little. Whatever the case, great read. Also love the decay animation on images - adds a canvas overlay then randomly positioned squares on scroll.

Successful century-scale storage will require a massive investment in digital preservation, a societal commitment. Politicians, governments, companies, and investors will have to be convinced, incentivized, or even bullied.

oh no…

Only the demo is available and I would love to be able to play the full version.

The demo on cricketweb.net is 694MB; that is surely the full game but limited - it was 1999!

And some reviews from 99.

Peter Gabriel was right. The book of love is 848 pages, and full of charts and facts, and figures

Important piece of history.

Peas will continue to be relevant in the future – it is not subject to a trend pattern.
There are no other emoji that the peas could be compared to
or are compatible with.

this looks quite cool

Cool idea! Adds a keyboard shortcut to set document.designMode = 'on' to allow inline visual editing.

Also his inline code demo plugin looks great

Very good looking image and video tools (and currently free).

I wasn’t able to test out Google AI studio for mic input due to stupid windows issues.

Linked from the email in Lea Verou’s footer. Is this still worth doing?

Also more sad linkrot that the page she links is stored in the internet archive only as error pages.

a most beautiful tool
