It was a revolutionary technology that came seemingly out of nowhere. It asked us to change our mental model. But we found it had much fewer applications than it claims, and it doesn't quite do the things we hoped it would, in the ways we anticipated. A solution looking for a problem. I'm talking, of course, about Shadow DOM. In this lecture--
I may have asked this before but I'm still not finding a good solution: Where can I host large(ish) media files, like audio samples, and link to them directly, in code? Looking for something cheap (preferably free), simple to set up (not Github's LFS nonsense) and not liable to incur added bandwidth charges where there's a lot of traffic.
The easiest way to detect an AI video is to determine if it's *worth* watching. The next time you're watching a Youtube short of a monkey escaping a zoo on a space hopper, stop asking questions like, "did his middle and index fingers switch places at 00:21?" Instead ask: "what the fuck am I doing with my life?"
Sometimes I'll start dunking on people and ripping into their shit technologies. And liberals will be like "that's harsh, what have they actually done to harm people?" and INVARIABLY they end up being fascists or adjacent. The thing is, I can tell FROM the tech. The way tech is architected betrays the ideological zealotry that begat it. Tailwind is essentially Brexit for fucking CSS. "CSS is made by standards beaurocrats, let's destroy it"
