peterdhintz Per Zoom bin ich auf drei Tagungen gleichzeitig, ich muss alles mithören, obwohl sich die Stimmen vermischen, ich unmute mich auf zwei Tagungen gleichzeitig und stelle überall dieselbe Frage, niemand merkt es, es ist eher ein Kommentar als eine Frage

ftrain 2000 me: How does HTML work now?

2020 me: Pretty easy, you define app logic as unidirectional dataflow, then fake up pseudo-HTML components that mirror state, and a controller mounts fake-page deltas onto the browser surface.

'00: How do you change the <title>?

'20: You can't.

vagina_museum there is a five page pdf for charities telling us what we are and are not supposed to do with the logo, and nowhere at all does it tell us we're not allowed to rotate it. it's like they *want* us to have a vertical smile. like we're *meant* to do this.

random_walker Hardy’s examples weren’t merely unfortunate in retrospect. I think they undercut the core of his argument, which is a call to retreat to the realm of the mind, concerned only with the beauty of knowledge, freed from having to think about the real-world implications of one’s work.

random_walker Number theory later turned out to be a key ingredient of modern cryptography, and relativity is necessary for GPS to work properly. Cryptography and GPS both have commercial applications and not just military ones, which I suspect Hardy would have found even more detestable.

random_walker One of the most ironic predictions made about research is from mathematician G.H. Hardy’s famous "Apology", written in 1940. He defends pure mathematics (which he called real mathematics) on the grounds that even if it can't be used for good, at least it can't be used for harm. pic.twitter.com/Iu07Cu1OV1

brianklaas What is with these headlines that say "Trump says he will leave office if he loses the Electoral College"? It doesn't matter what he says. It's irresponsible to frame it as some choice he's made that we should all pay attention to. It's not up to him. It's the law.

liekegelderloos NL has an ever growing number of political parties. Every so often a far-right party pops up. Thankfully, we have a rich tradition of them self-destructing in spectacular ways.
