A true Eef Freef.

As an outsider to the scientific community, I wanted to know more about whatever the heck Parafilm is. I’ve definitely been educated 😆

Heeell yes! I used to blast Italics all the time. It’s from that wonderful music era of my life from 2014-2016 where I exclusively found music on SoundCloud.

That’s why I’m rooting for Ladybird.

And now we’re doing it to the almonds smh

Keeping “muscles make the body move” was artistic brilliance 🤌

Skipping React hydration… so, only rendering on the server? BBC just re-invented server-side rendering, bravo 👏😆

I say this as an 8-year React developer. Damn, our industry really drank the kool-aid on on this one. Of course, plenty of people have been saying that React for static content like this has always been a misapplication of the tool, I’ve been reading opinions like that the entire time I’ve been working with it.

I’m glad BBC is doing this, though. Legitimate kudos to them for recognizing the issue and working towards fixing it. I actually think there are some great benefits that React has given us:

• A universal component interface for all JavaScript-targeting languages
• An enormous ecosystem of components
• Popularization of the “component model”, which has spread to basically every other language that is used to render user interfaces (the mental model is just that much better)
• A quickly-evolving (React is arguably on its third major paradigm shift) testbed for what works best for UI development

I would be happy if React was supplanted in the near future, but I also have some fondness for it. I know I’m way off topic on this post, just felt like talking about React.

Tracking scripts degrade gracefully, so you can disable JS, and the page should still work just fine.

I had a course in college that used this book, and I’d definitely recommend it.

This is why I come to Lemmy, for bean recipes nested 6 comment levels down.

I feel like most of the most of the people here didn’t read the article or watch the video. If you’re asking “why would anyone need this”, the article touches on it:

One of Lenovo’s big ideas is that the form factor could be useful for digital artists, helping them to see the world behind the laptop’s screen while sketching it on the lower half of the laptop where the keyboard is[…]

Also, it’s a prototype, yet people are responding as if this is a product that Lenovo is launching. Even if transparent screens do become a popular but useless fad, that wouldn’t nullify the value of this prototype. Trying shit is fun, especially if it’s something we’ve been imagining in sci-fi for years!

TwoMinutePapers is a well-established YouTube channel that does a great job of explaining new scientific techniques/advancements (usually in the areas of computer science and graphics). Do you actually have anything to say about the content of the video?

No better way to test the permissions system in your app than hosting a public demo.

A lot of good suggestions in this post, but the only real answer here in Minecraft Dungeons (only half joking).

People aren’t going to do it, the platforms that 95% of people use (Facebook, Tik Tok, YouTube, Instagram) will have to add the functionality to their video players/posts. That’s the only way anything like this could be implemented by the 2024 US election.

Are you familiar with the concept of “atomicity” in relation to database systems? It’s actually a very appropriate term, and the article touches on its use over “immutable”.

Would Homebrew work for this? I use it in WSL for all my CLI programs.

A year later, Microsoft revealed it’d built an Azure-hosted, OpenAI-co-designed supercomputer that at the time was among the most powerful machines in the world.

I don’t think you can co-create a supercomputer with a company and not be deeply involved with them. Combine that with the inherent power Microsoft has because of their money, and I think it’s pretty easy to see how they could exercise control indirectly.

I really like this answer. A show doesn’t have to explicitly focus on mental health to be a show that promotes mental wellness.
