There's already an outbreak in Texas.


It's not just measles; don't forget the tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas.

How's the bridge's structure?


I don't understand your comment.



Whenever I have a brain fart, my 12 year old daughter loudly and sarcastically thanks Thomas. Words can't express how much I appreciate her sense of humor.


ScienceClic on Youtube has amazing videos on this topic as does Veritasium. Einstein's happiest thought helps with understanding this. He thought that there would be no discernible difference between what a man felt while falling off a ladder (let's not factor in air resistance) and what a person in 0g space felt.

We are actually "accelerating" upwards at a constant rate that is equal to what we feel and many think of as gravity. This is because spacetime is curved by the mass of the earth.

Think of a grid being distorted or squeezed / pinched. The distortion pinching is "gravity". Everything in the grid still travels in a straight path relative tot he lines on the grid but since the [spacetime] grid is pinched, it looks as if it is not on a straight path.


Thank you


I dislike this new trend of trying to make your site's text look like LLM output. It's incredibly annoying to read at a fixed slow pace.


I think in this case it's because the book is about typewriters and it has nothing to do with LLMs.

I agree it's annoying but I think this particular site has some aesthetic reason to do this.


"LLM output"? you mean typing?


Especially since I have @prefers-reduce-motion set.


I'm curious if the average developer would consider text appearing with no actual motion (no scale, pan, translate, fade, no tween whatsoever) a candidate to disable for @prefers-reduce-motion


I suspect the average web developer doesn't know or care about @prefers-reduce-motion (even less than @prefers-color-scheme), but for the few that do, I would expect to err on the side of caution, eliminating any animation and any page change that is not made absolutely necessary by user interaction.


tbf it predated LLM output by a fair margin. But mostly agree, my firefox on a decently powerful laptop was jerky enough I turned it off.


Yes, I was recently playing some retro games from the 8-bit era and lots of them did it with clicking noises that I assume were meant to simulate a teletype.


If anyone likes bluegrass, check out billy strings. Those guys have figured out how to release chemicals in my brain. A joy to listen to.


Check out Greensky if you haven't already. A lot of Billy's recipes were adapted from their book.


Ha. All the purists will now yell at you because you enjoy progressive "newgrass".


Since there is no description in the link: "Simple and scalable PHP applications with serverless"
