Could someone please write Taylor Otwell a bot that replies with "💩" to every Pull Request he closes, so that he doesn't have to endure the pitiful and tremendously time-consuming task of having to select one of his reply templates that he can't even be bothered to check if it is even fitting (honestly, it's more likely, he doesn't give a flying fuck given the amount of times this happens)? 🤡

This piece on reading the Baby-Sitters Club books as a middle-aged man is pretty decent.
theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
I’m a similar age to the author, so as I read it I absolutely recognised that feeling of repulsion I’d have as a kid at the very notion of accessing any ‘girl’ content. Wonder-Woman, She-Ra, Supergirl, ‘girly’ pop music, books about girl things; I’d actively have nothing to do with them.
I don’t think I’m unusual in that. Perhaps these days, but not then.
As a middle-aged man, I would’ve saved loads on therapy if I’d read Baby-Sitters Club books as a kid
Boys weren’t exposed to emotionally intelligent characters in the books marketed to us. I won’t let my son be a victim of the same social tabooRussell Marks (The Guardian)

ahh, interesting, so you want to make your own platform for which accesskit builds an adaptor? I wonder, would that help the current situation with chromium and similar? whoe, you have that much support for esoteric devices like those? linux doesn't have them even now, not as advanced as your thing, awesome! Also, I know the name sounded familiar from somewhere, now I found it, this popped up in my articles list when I was researching something about wayland. Reading some of your building clients with arcan articles, especially the part where you apparently have to clone arcan and build your apps into its source tree somewhere to make them found by the thing, I came to the conclusion that you're using wayland in some very, very weird ways, dk if that's awesome or not. Anyway, this is the article I read back then, but as I had no context, I dismissed it because it sounded weird

📏 LA PARADOJA DE LA MEDIDA PRECISA 📏
🪵 Encima de una mesa tenemos dos palos de diferente longitud. Los vamos a medir con un instrumento que cada vez que lo usamos comete un error de medida aleatorio, de una cierta magnitud que llamaremos Sigma. El instrumento se equivocará más o se equivocará menos aleatoriamente cada vez que lo usemos (con un error diferente en cada caso), pero el error en la medición siempre será en torno a Sigma unidades. Eso sí, el instrumento está INSESGADO, es decir, el error es aleatorio pero centrado en el valor real; no tiene una desviación sistemática que ocurra siempre.
❗ Podría parecer que la mejor estrategia es medir cada palo individualmente… pero no. Gracias a una investigación desarrollada por Harold Hotelling en 1944 sabemos que hay una manera más eficiente de medir los dos palos sin tener que darle más vueltas de la cuenta y consiguiendo mayor nivel de precisión.
💡 El error de medida aparece en muchos instrumentos de todo tipo que utilizamos en nuestro día a día.

I hope i'm misunderstanding the idea. Obviously if you have some eyesight, or used to, or have an interest in the medium, you'll be more interested by default.
It souns to me like an interesting idea for a research proposal but an utterly impractical waste of time and energy, especially given people's levels of Braille literacy and reading speed contrasted with the speed of film.
If you got to pick a computer model and OS for middle school students what would you pick?
I understand some of the reasons SO many schools choose chromebooks. Low cost, durability..
Drop a macbook it might break. The chromebook works just as well before and after being dropped. Which is to say they work like they have been dropped right out of the box.
Touch pads are unresponsive, touch screen is annoying. I kind of loathe them.
But, designing computers for children isn't glamourous.
Designing computers for children ought to be glamorous, celebrated, You will shape a generation. It's not fun, or easy at all.
Frankly, even more than the software the poor quality of the touch pad, and the jitteriness and hypersensitivity of the touch screens on most models made for school markets are making a whole generation hate laptops.
And when young people hate laptops they become phone only computer users. It's a dead end.
I'm so glad this idea was rejected at our school. They need to type! And those keyboard cases are NOT the same.
But worse, understanding the file system on an iPad is challenging for *me* it's designed to make you not think about it. I know I sound like an old lady but the youths need to know where their files are!

Long time no post! Been building a graphical #WASM interpreter!
Very useful when your program is doing funky stuff and you don’t know why… Here’s a sneak peek 👀
would this be able to be run in the browser?
Then it could join the ranks of awesome web based debug tools like the godbolt compiler explorer and rust playground.
@treefit Actually the “default” version is in-browser yeah!
Since it’s written in rust ive built the gui using egui, so it can support web+native where native def has better performance but shipping a website is just so much easier so thats the default

There is a lot to like in this upcoming version.
We've been running the new version for about three weeks, all day every day.
Last year, the big feature was the modified version of the Insert Tracks dialog resulting in faster retrieval of items.
This year, there are many new improvements. I've been very proactive this year in ensuring that the developers have included functionality which is directly exposed to JAWS I can latch onto.
I'm glad to see there is a new feature I requested to support an American FM station I've been doing work for.
For users of voice-tracking, there is a huge, huge feature. I think it's huge anyway, but then, I am very particular about the way my VT's sound.
But there's a tonne of stuff in there. They will probably release in November based upon past form.

one of my real pain points with the iPhone is composing emails using the built-in mail app with #voiceover. It’s got slightly better with iOS 18, but the Misspelt Words option in the rotor still does not work. This might not be an issue for some, but for me I cannot send emails on the phone with confidence that it is written accurately and looks professional. I know there's the option of writing it in the Notes app, reviewing it and then pasting it into Mail, but come on! That's such a clunky workaround.
Is Mail any better on the iPad at all? I would quite like something that is an in between device to a laptop and a phone that I could use to quickly write emails, make additions to documents, write quick notes etc, and in that sense the iPad could be a nice fit, but if iPadOS has the same issues as the iOS versions then meh, it might not add much for me. Any thoughts?

Van egy 600 URL-ből álló listám (blog postok). Ezen URL-ek tartalmát le kellene mentenem kereshető formában. Hajlok a PDF felé, mert ha később kell a tartalom, elegánsabb abban az oldal designjával kiküldeni.
Van erre valakinek egy jó megoldása, vagy jobban össze kell barátkoznom a Puppeteerrel?
