did you know? the Paper Mario (Nintendo 64) engine has no less than 9 different domain specific scripting languages! Games frequently use DSLs to allow non-programmers to work on the game.
Paper Mario's DSLs vary widely in complexity and how often they are used - lets take a look 🧵

finally someone said it. the real crisis is the global electron shortage
I laughed at loud. These people are so pathetic; our enemies are numbskulls. They will kill us all and still not know hs physics.
COWEN: The stupidest question possible: Why don’t we just make more GPUs?
ALTMAN: Because we need to make more electrons.

With all the excitement of (Same-Document) View Transitions (and more VT features) becoming Baseline Newly available (yay! 🎉), one might overlook the inclusion of the moveBefore() method.
This method is a pretty big deal as it allows you to move elements around the DOM while preserving their state.

to be clear, i think the policy direction is OK but the way the government are selling it (to stop illegal working, somehow) is completely wrong

I really think we can still do digital id for convenience as long as it's done well. There is economic benefit in speeding up people IDing for 18+ spaces and shopping, for example. Plus it's more convenient than carrying around your drivers license everywhere!

im still trying to work out the difference between Your Party and the Green Party - YP says its going to be internally democratic but the greens already are, etc. I'm a member of both but I have a feeling they are gonna end up targeting different seats with essentially identical policies lol

whenever i watch someone else search, i cringe at how their eyes reflexively dodge the ad result, breeze past the unhelpful ai response, ignore a site they hate, and get past the popular-but-not-what-they-wanted result... just to arrive at the first result they would've received from @kagi.com
