Mainly just questioning in which direction the poisoned chalice is being passed

I don't think the OP comment was about women, I read it discriminatory in terms of social class and "culture fit".
I think the comments and down votes are fairly self evident here, despite what I may or may not have meant. Discrimination is a fairly well defined term.
Another hot take - the healthiest communities are those that people self-identity into. Like HN ;)

Animated icons can be quite annoying.
Couldn't agree more. I'm using it for notifications, where icon colour changes depending on the type of notification (colours are also user editable) ... and the notifications can be disabled :)

Lanier Graham is my pick of the bunch. Finally a set that doesn't require a lathe or a chisel!

I use animated SVG favicons in a Firefox extension I've been building. They actually work a treat
As an aside we went to see the new David Attenborough film Ocean over the weekend. Equal parts stunning and heartbreaking - it sews a compelling narrative for the oceans, spread between climate and ocean ecology, the extent of our exploitation, and the renewed hope (if you could call it that) that it holds for humanity's survival ...
A hard watch but also a must see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIZAdCtKT_g

Two notes:
- is there a sly dig in there at Meta? Ice cream melting ... blue-suited hand
- the Ghibli style feels controversial
It's their movement that I find fascinating. It's like they just snap between positions [1]. They're incredibly fast.
Not to mention exceptionally beautiful (often irridescent [2]) and entirely curious.
I have thousands of happy snaps like those from around our old gaf of different pals that caught my eye or walked a web over one of us. So cool.

I can count on one hand the number of times I've needed something like this in the last decade. But I'd also need to count the same number of times I've implemented a less than ideal solution that's ended up in prod. Great work!
