Heeell yes! I used to blast Italics all the time. It’s from that wonderful music era of my life from 2014-2016 where I exclusively found music on SoundCloud.

I felt like such a rebel with my Casio in high school. It was so much faster, had a better screen, and had way more features.

MY PEOPLE! I’m so used to the CMD key that I made this shitty AutoHotkey script that makes things mostly work the same in Windows. It’s glitchy and imperfect, but it’s better than changing my muscle memory.

If anyone has any recommendations to improve the situation (besides recommending that I switch OSes), then I’m all ears.

I’ve heard the phenomenon you’re describing as the “lava layers”.

This is basically a scene out of Bee and PuppyCat.

Ah yes, the insidious corner.

That’s why I’m rooting for Ladybird.

I had a course in college that used this book, and I’d definitely recommend it.

I feel like most of the most of the people here didn’t read the article or watch the video. If you’re asking “why would anyone need this”, the article touches on it:

One of Lenovo’s big ideas is that the form factor could be useful for digital artists, helping them to see the world behind the laptop’s screen while sketching it on the lower half of the laptop where the keyboard is[…]

Also, it’s a prototype, yet people are responding as if this is a product that Lenovo is launching. Even if transparent screens do become a popular but useless fad, that wouldn’t nullify the value of this prototype. Trying shit is fun, especially if it’s something we’ve been imagining in sci-fi for years!

TwoMinutePapers is a well-established YouTube channel that does a great job of explaining new scientific techniques/advancements (usually in the areas of computer science and graphics). Do you actually have anything to say about the content of the video?

No better way to test the permissions system in your app than hosting a public demo.

A lot of good suggestions in this post, but the only real answer here in Minecraft Dungeons (only half joking).

So a bit of both.

A year later, Microsoft revealed it’d built an Azure-hosted, OpenAI-co-designed supercomputer that at the time was among the most powerful machines in the world.

I don’t think you can co-create a supercomputer with a company and not be deeply involved with them. Combine that with the inherent power Microsoft has because of their money, and I think it’s pretty easy to see how they could exercise control indirectly.

I was in New Delhi when the AQI was ~700, that is MUCH worse than visual pollution. My lungs started hurting within 20 minutes of being outside, and a huge amount of people on the domestic flight I was on (mostly local residents) had coughs.

Same. I only got through day 3 last year since I didn’t have time to do both the learning and the solving. I think I need a longer term project to give me more focus when learning a new language. This year I’m just sticking with my usual language Elixir, which I always enjoy.

As a JetBrains Mono user for the past couple of years, I used Monaspace all day this past Friday to try it out, and it was not for me. The oval shape of JetBrains Mono glyphs is so aesthetically pleasing to me, and I don’t think I’d be able to switch to another font that doesn’t have similar styling.

I just read through all the top-level replies to this post, and you’re the only one that actually understands this change. They didn’t just change the icon, they added new functionality.

Your description isn’t quite complete, though. Pressing it once adds to the playlist you most recently added to. Basically, it remembers which playlist you last added a song to, so if you’re listening to a radio station that matches one of your playlists vibes, it makes it really easy to add the songs as they play.

This new functionality perfectly matches my “flow” of music collection, since I add to separate playlists instead of to Liked. This feature changes nothing if you only ever add to Liked.

So basically, everyone in this post is complaining about a feature Spotify added that genuinely enhances my experience and is only a minor visual change for everyone else.

Wow, thank you for linking that article, I hadn’t read it yet. That’s absolutely horrible, and it doesn’t surprise me that Elon has orchestrated something so cruel in the name of progress.
