Childhood mortality -- death before age 15 or so -- used to run at about 50%.
Every second child born, died before becoming an adult, all over the world, for as far back as we've been able to track.
We didn't turn the corner until about 1900, when science got us the germ theory. That sparked sanitation and vaccination.
A cabinet nominee (RFK Jr) who questions vaccines is frightening. A nominee who brags about not washing his hands (Hegseth) is terrifying.

This is an embeded video on a random page.
Yeah, I use #firefox containers, and everything google related is opening in one specific container to limit their spying on me. I opened the page in different container, thus I am not signed in.
Well ok, give me the link to the youtube video and I will watch it there? In the right container?

@ebassi I feel stupid. Is this a reference to that book by Neil Strauss?

Logic Pro surprise: authentic recreation of 1982 Quantec Room Simulator - CDM Create Digital Music
Every so often, you get something that's clearly a labor of love. Apple has acquired the innovative digital reverb legacy of Quantec and its late founder Wolfgang "Wolf" Buchleitner and built it into Logic Pro for iPad and Mac.Peter Kirn (CDM Create Digital Music)
This is indeed a pleasant and an indeed unexpected surprise.
On a sidenote, if you don't use Logic, Savant Audio Labs recreated these at savantaudiolabs.com/product-ca…
To potom nemôžeš byť like a... "ty k***, choď do p***, ťa tu roz****", nebudeš môcť nikoho biť, budeš sa musieť kontrolovať a robiť robotu dobre. Tu je to asi trochu opačne.
Asi sa mýlim, len taký pocit.

in reply to Thib • • •@thibaultamartin somewhat, yeah. I've got some experience with both, but I'm wondering if there's anything cooler.
One thing I'm looking for is something easily styleable, and a decent ecosystem of pre-built components. Also Typescript support is a must

in reply to Chris 🌱 • • •if you’re primarily hosting dynamic content, I would use a SSG.
- vanilla html/css if you don’t have many pages
- @astro if you want a really snappy website. It also has an interesting content layer to fetch content at build time. That’s what I use for ergaster.org
- zola if you’re looking for stability (you don’t need to update deps every other day). That’s what we use for matrix.org
Happy to expand if you want me to :)
