@samhenrigold This sounds like a terrible idea, and you should definitely look into it. If there's potential for cooperative multitasking between "apps" (tasks, I guess), you could eventually stack your way to MacOS 8.5 or something similar, built inside powerpoint.

@petrillic Good to see the models have a terrible time writing code in Whitespace; I might have to pick it back up.

@a2_4am @cwebber Appreciate the double entendre of the idea having legs even though metaZuck doesn't have legs.

It used to be that, if you wanted a link to come up in a fancy modal on your website, you'd capture the click event on that link and do your fetch for the fancy modal, so at least people could still _get to the linked page_ if their #JavaScript had fallen over.
Sometime in the last little while, it became fashionable to throw the link away altogether, and present a button that's styled to _look_ like a link, so now there's no way to get to the other page if your JS isn't available.
I still don't understand the motivation behind that.

@pheonix@hachyderm.io Appreciate how this full-planet view lets you see the angle of the day-night terminator; always found it cool how you can directly infer the time of year from that angle (straight up-and-down being an equinox).
And yeah, I have family in that red zone west of India; they're actively melting right now.

@Jourei @pomarede The scratches are intentional, as the heat of re-entry attacks the heatshield and parts of it get too hot to remain intact. From Maciej Cegłowski:
"The Avcoat material is not designed to come out in chunks. It is supposed to char and flake off smoothly, maintaining the overall contours of the heat shield."
There was an issue with the Artemis I test flight where the heatshield came away in chunks instead of flaking and scratching away, and Cegłowski argued this flight shouldn't go ahead.
This photo is the first thing I've seen which assuages that concern: looks like the material performed nominally.

So that's interesting: Mastodon's "Translate post" feature doesn't cache the translation result, so if you want to switch back and forth it makes fresh requests to DeepL each time.
Wonder how much of a pain it'd be to cache that clientside? Unless it's already cached serverside, and /translate only calls out to DeepL if it hasn't already done so for this status?

@rodolforg @cwebber It could; I've written a set of posts on how to publish over ActivityPub from PHP, and they take inspiration from a post about a single-file PHP implementation.
