I don’t know if anyone else notices or cares, but when I see a presentation in which the speaker uses obviously generated-AI images to illustrate their slides, it makes me immediately less confident in whatever other content they’re presenting.

in this case it’s just vector addition so i think it’s fine. + is overloaded even in the most low-level languages; in C it can be integer addition, floating point addition, or integer addition with an unwritten multiplier.

a more practical example would be something like a vector class with this method:

def __add__(self, other):
return Vector(self.x + other.x, self.y + other.y)

so then you can just do vecA + vecB instead of vecA.add(vecB)

One of Kotlin’s wildest features: you can define control flow altering functions using lambda expressions with a special syntax. Thanks to aggressive inlining it’s basically free.

I had a friend play through an early unfinished version of Chapter 5!

Their testimonial was "I am still thinking about it a lot and want to play it more and it's kawaii when toby is worried about if it's good enough"

infographic for measuring your ideal refresh rate for continuous cursor movements. It's the gap you see between cursors during fast movements, in pixels, multiplied by your monitor's refresh rate. in my case this lands me at 36000 Hz

btw the human eye can absolutely perceive monitor refresh rates beyond 60 Hz. I'd cap out at around 36,000 Hz, for example

it's not about flicker fusion, it's about spatial continuity

It’s so weird that people latched onto a bunch of mostly bullshit justifications for disliking a technology that has immediate obvious negative societal externalities. It’s made it way harder to teach writing but people scream about imaginary lakes evaporating.

Tbh the tremendously miniscule "harm" presented as reason to restrict access to transition or even ban it entirely is really ridiculous in a society where you can simply decide to take up smoking, go to a store, and ruin your lungs without a single consultation with anyone.

an eternal floette gijinka dressed in wedding-like attire made out of plants. she has two decrative white and purple sleeves, a pink "top", white top-skirt with a purple under skirt that goes downward. she has matching leggings. the etrenal flower serves as a broom with pointer stems at the end. she has her white hair tied in pig tails with red ribbons. there is a halo comprised of flowers behind her head.

One of the wilder political things in recent history is that Project 2025 publicly released a 900 page document laying out their plans to roll back 100 years of human progress and then during the campaign Republicans just said "no we're not :)" and then they won and now they're doing it all.
