FelipeCortez··on CSS: Unavoidable Bad Parts
try it!

  data:text/html,<grid><p>A</p><p>B</p><p>C</p></grid><style>grid{display: grid}</style>
afaik to create a CustomElement you need to use dashes, yes, but in this example `<grid>` is an HTMLUnknownElement, which renders just fine. some discussion here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/22545622/2393963
FelipeCortez··on Artificial intelligence is not conscious – Ted Chiang
Both stories are in the compilation Exhalation, but OP’s description matches what I remember from the story I mentioned more than the one you linked
FelipeCortez··on Artificial intelligence is not conscious – Ted Chiang
don't you mean "The Truth of Fact, The Truth of Feeling"? I think that matches your description more, but I could be wrong

Julia Evans has a fun blog post using Julia to visualize Gunzip: https://jvns.ca/blog/2013/10/24/day-16-gzip-plus-poetry-equa...

you should totally do a "Janet writes Janet" version

FelipeCortez··on Official Clojure Documentary page with Video, Shownotes, and Links
the scarf matches the one Rich is wearing near the end of the documentary. the code matches what's on the Clojure source code, even if it's an odd choice. the two belts are in the draft, even if only one of them features the logo. the artist's instagram has a bunch of well colorized artwork. I believe it is really human made
FelipeCortez··on Official Clojure Documentary page with Video, Shownotes, and Links
I don't think it is, considering they highlighted it in a post about human craft [1]. I read somewhere it was illustrated by felipemelo.net, but can't find the reference anymore

FelipeCortez··on What major works of literature were written after age of 85? 75? 65?
The Wikidata documentation is good:

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Introduction

And you can find lots of SPARQL examples here:

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:SPARQL_query_service/...

FelipeCortez··on What major works of literature were written after age of 85? 75? 65?
that's kind of what P800 (notable work) is doing, but you can try some approximations to "major work" with "has both an English Wikipedia page and a Goodreads link":

  ?work wdt:P50 ?author ;
        wdt:P577 ?publicationDate ; 
        wdt:P8383 ?goodreadsID .

  ?article schema:about ?work ;
           schema:isPartOf <https://en.wikipedia.org/> ;
           schema:inLanguage "en" .
FelipeCortez··on What major works of literature were written after age of 85? 75? 65?
This is actually a good fit for a Wikidata SPARQL query you can run here https://query.wikidata.org/:

  SELECT ?work ?workLabel ?author ?authorLabel ?publicationDate ?ageAtPublication
  WHERE {
    ?author wdt:P569 ?birth .
    ?author wdt:P570 ?death .
    ?author wdt:P800 ?work .
  
    ?work wdt:P50 ?author ;
          wdt:P31 wd:Q47461344 ;
          wdt:P577 ?publicationDate .
  
    FILTER(?publicationDate <= ?death)
  
    BIND(YEAR(?publicationDate) - YEAR(?birth) AS ?ageAtPublication)
    FILTER(?ageAtPublication > 60)
  
    SERVICE wikibase:label { bd:serviceParam wikibase:language "en". }
  }
  ORDER BY DESC(?ageAtPublication)
  LIMIT 300

I always thought it was native. You can write extensions using React, yes, but I was under the impression those got compiled to their internal Swift-based UI components

I remember seeing an art project in the UK ~10 years ago where they had actors enact a short film but everything was filmed using street cameras, which IIRC everyone could request access to with little bureaucracy.

very cool! hookpad/hooktheory/theorytab [1] is a similar idea, but I think the annotations are created using their tool instead of sourced from MuseScore.

FelipeCortez··on Why can't we screenshot frames from DRM-protected video on Apple devices?
The streaming provider doesn’t have a choice. They must implement and prove they have a working DRM solution or publishers won’t hand over the streamable media
