What do you think the premise of the article is? The article is pretty narrowly speaking of "app" UI and your comment is a "well actually" that some videos intentionally introduce noise or temporary discomfort for an emotional or artistic effect. On the same basis, comments like yours would defend screen shake if it was added to desktop and mobile apps on every user input.
The premise of the article is that every frame of an animation should look good if captured and analyzed statically, in isolation. There's no reason provided for this other than "it feels right." I'm saying that this ignores how the human visual system works and how we perceive displays in real-world lighting conditions. I used film as an analogy to illustrate the point.
The idea that I would defend screen shake is a complete straw man. How do you get from my comment to that conclusion?
This isn't true generally. I am personally far more comfortable with disabling smooth scroll. It has more to do with your mind's expectations. Which can vary between people. Some people expect smooth and others don't. Motion itself isn't necessary.
The only time I have to "rescan" is if I input a scroll and anticipate a scroll and it doesn't scroll. It has nothing to do with motion. In fact, in that case, I "rescan" even though the page hasn't changed, but because it doesn't match my expectation that it would change.
No they are not used everywhere. Some games with good UI use animations everywhere that an animation is appropriate. But plenty of good UI exist without animations. The point above is that no animation is better than an inappropriate animation.
The creation of the Strong Fund, the Tech Fund, and sector specific SWFs like the Food Security Fund which can all participate in the VC Action Plan, along with increased coordination between provincial funds and the federal government and increasingly serious conversations about providing a tax shelter for venture and early stage capital in Canada.
No. Pollution is a byproduct. Spam and slop is quite literally the product in many cases. GenAI generated blogs or websites or youtube videos are the point for those creating them, they are not incidental outputs along the way.
And GenAI to mass produce misinformation and propoganda is a whole other thing. You see this right now with the Alberta sepratists in Canada. Comparing this to pollution like a means to an end is dismissive.
Some ppl do dump trash on the street intentionally, out of laziness but also for some even their actual goal is to deteriorate a neighborhood. But you're pulling in a rare edge case to what by and large these GenAI blogs and Youtube videos are intended for. By and large ppl are trying make income. They are hoping their content will be well received and they will get repeat customers. They are trying to figure out how to use GenAI in a non-sloppy engaging way.
Thanks for catching this. I had implemented the cards as HTMX-clickable divs, which broke native link behavior. I just shipped a fix: search result cards are now real anchor links, so middle-click/cmd-click/ctrl-click work normally while plain clicks still use the in-page HTMX transition.
True! I love it when I buy a computer pre-installed with windows and it has a bunch of extra software bundled in like norton antivirus, dropbox, and opera. Plus the OEM makes money and I get a bunch of free apps. It's a win win. I hope the author of omarchy gets sponsor money for including nordvpn, spotify, and 1password. I love seeing linux become more conventionally attractive and steer in the direction of windows and macos because they're popular so linux will be more popular. Everything should be for everyone.
I know you're being facetious but everything you are saying is kind of the point about Omarchy. The "oma" comes from "omakase" or something like that. The point of it's creation was to give devs at 37Signals a streamlined onboarding process. That is why it includes apps thst the comapny uses internally. The OSS nature of it enables people to fork it and remove the bloat, which is exactly what people have already done.
Also if you don't need certbot anymore is your service managing its own ssl certs with letsencrypt? Isn't it generally easier to configure with a reverse proxy like nginx or caddy and terminate SSL at the edge? That's literally caddy's whole thing that it does SSL for you so that it doesn't concern your application.
A lot of features that git had by default had to be enabled as plugins in mercurial.
The plugins were usually shipped with mercurial so you didn't have to install them separately, but you needed to know that you had to enable them in a config. And I beleive this turned a lot of people off.
I think some of the extensions were very basic stuff like graph logging and colorized output -- and mq like you said. So it was kind of unfortunate that people got a bad impression of hg from that and bounced off.

It goes a little deeper than that. Prospective Mercurial users who wanted a specific feature were first greeted with claims that they were in the wrong for even entertaining the idea they needed such a thing. The rationale was that Mercurial already did everything they could possibly wanted to do, and so by definition wanting to do something differently was proof the user was in the wrong.
But to stop hearing about how feature X or Y was needed, they could roll out their own extension and leave the project alone and not bother them with these silly things.
Shipping extensions by default is an absurdity, once you think about it. It's effectively a way to disable features by default and stop hearing about how the project needs to support a feature. And that's how Mercurial dealt with it's potential user base.
