Totally agree! The major feature missing compared to Flash would be library and component support - i.e. the ability to create reusable animated graphics that you can drag onto the canvas (with infinite nesting).

i.e. you can animate a bird with flapping wings, then drag 3 copies onto your sky.

Rive can do that!

Are you holding and dragging? Or do you release and try to tap?

The menu works as intended for me on iOS but I don’t use Android.

I tap and hold, then drag without releasing.

No luck on Android here either

Encode the image and and you could do this with CSS as a userstyle.

Most of the work is done for you though, the "old" logo is still all over the site. Click "X Corp. > About the company" and you're greeted with a giant bird, and Twitter is what’s happening...". It's clear there wasn't a plan to roll out the rebrand.

Can add the JS to an Arc Boost as well, I think.

Nice, but I wonder why. It's like putting lipstick on a pig. It wants to be ugly. Let it be ugly.

Eh, Twitter is much worse now for sure, but depending on the folks you follow, there's still some solid up-to-date news/takes/insights there. In general, it's not great though.

It's an interesting idea but is it scary? Any such "consciousness" existing in a digital realm is a copy and so the real organic you would never experience these things

Eh, I have a much less narrow definition of "you" than you do.

I was half expecting a cdrom tray that come out.

Those who know, know.

Lol, gotta love that old free cupholder.
brycedriesenga commented on The Andy Warhol Copyright Case That Could Transform Generative AI   wired.com/story/andy-warh... · Posted by u/marban

It goes further than that. Kris Kashtanova made a comic book named "Zarya of the Dawn" using midjourney for all the art. When registering for copyright she claimed copyright over the art for herself, under the theory that she was prompting the AI, and it was just a tool. When the copyright office learned about this they revoked her copyright registration[1]. The view of the copyright office is that this is no different than the photographs taken by the monkey - the monkey can't claim copyright because they are not human, and the owner of the camera can't claim copyright because they didn't have sufficient creative input, so the work is ineligible for copyright at all.

She is eligible for copyright on the text she wrote, the composition and editing performed on the images, but not the raw output of the AI.

This is so weird. Can artists who splash paint randomly at a canvas not copyright those artworks? Or ones who attach a paint bucket to a rope and swing it over the canvas, giving it just one push?

One thing I'm wishing for in Trello is the ability to add an icon to my Android home screen pointing directly to a specific checklist.
brycedriesenga · 3 years ago
Hmm -- can you link directly to Trello lists/cards? Wondering if you could leverage a Chrome link on the home screen if that would then throw you over to Trello automatically? Not sure.

Sorry, yes, that was a dog.

Let me try again and this time I will definitely not hit anything.

Sorry, that was another dog.

brycedriesenga · 3 years ago
"Was that another dog?"

BingDrive: I'm sorry, but I prefer not to continue this conversation.

Just like any discussion between advanced web devs would make any humble woodworker feel?

And just like any discussion between advanced woodworkers would make a humble web dev feel?

"It's really simple, they're just using a No. 7 jointer plane with a high-angle frog and a PM-V11 blade to flatten those curly birch boards, then a No. 4 smoother plane with a Norris-type adjuster and a toothed blade for the final pass."

Whut?

"You could use Webpack to bundle your HTML, CSS and Babel-transpiled TypeScript 5 down to shim-included Ecmascript 4", "They're just using OAuth2 authentication with Passport.js and JWT tokens, which easily gets you CSRF protection", "Our e-learning platform uses LMS.js and xAPI.js, plus SCORM for course packaging and Moodle as the LMS backend.", ...

There was a time you didn't know what any of that meant.

Just because you don't know what the words mean shouldn't make it sound difficult. Not saying AI is easy, just that the jargon is not a good indication of difficulty and we should know better than to be so easily mystified.

Hey, guys. Hey. Ready to talk plate processing and residue transport plate funneling? Why don't we start with joust jambs? Hey, why not? Plates and jousts. Can we couple them? Hell, yeah, we can. Want to know how? Get this. Proprietary to McMillan. Only us. Ready? We fit Donnely nut spacing grip grids and splay-flexed brace columns against beam-fastened derrick husk nuts and girdle plate Jerries, while plate flex tandems press task apparati of ten vertipin-plated pan traps at every maiden clamp plate packet. Knuckle couplers plate alternating sprams from the t-nut to the SKN to the chim line. Yeah. That is the McMillan way. And it's just another day at the office.
