Bingo. The great lesson that React learnt from Flex is that your Components should just be code. In Flex your fancy MXML components are 1 to 1 mappable to plain Actionscript. Not templates, not an opaque resource bundle, not some whole othe

Two way data bindings works in the absolutely most trivial case. As soon as you go any amount of complexity higher in your program two way databinding is pure poison. Two-way databinding is the absolute very worst feature people took from F

Yes the "no lockdown ever" crowd like to pretend NZ/Aus were prison camps where everyone was confined to their house 24 hours a day, whereas the reality was packed stadiums for international rugby. The UKs shitty confused res

Dalle is bad at being instructed to have an exact count of items in the picture. Ask for 6 kittens and you get 7 & each kitten will be much more "wrong" than a piture of a single kitten. Dalle is is bad at positional prompts.

Scotland isn't seeing the same excess death surge (there's a rise but no where near England and Wales levels).

Was working fulltime. Asked my manager to go down to 4 days. They said yes. Now down to a 3 day week (spread over 5 days) as it fits my situation better.

The two main causes of excess excess death that Britian is seeing seeing are vascular issues and diabetes. Guess what two of the main long term effects we have seen with Covid are?

You should be able to adjust the pad velocities with the Editor. The keyboard might be able to be edited with the same trick as the mk iii. Hold down Full Level for 5 seconds and you can then edit the curves usong the knobs.

That Akai MPK mini keyboard, out of the box, is absolute garbage. Unusable. Almost returned it. Amazingly the editor software does not expose the keyboard velocity curve for the keys (unlike the pads which are fully customisable). However

It's because the genuinely small 9inch netbooks were good. The 10inch netbooks were not.

Seems to do fine. I printed out a manual for a thing recently and the pages came out flat I think. It _is_ weirdly muddy with images though bit noone is buying a monochrome printer for images.

I have a cheap, domestic HP1020. Absolutely fantastic piece of kit for printing text. It is from the before times, apparently it was so good it started eating into their low end commercial unit sales so they discontinued it.

Dalle(and others) are great, almost magical, at specific types of images and abysmal at others.

MXML Flex was built on top of Flash and gave a very nice, wildly ahead of it's time, environment for building Rich web Business Applications.

The Flash Spec was open. There are loads of Flash Player implementations.

The killer line is of course the last. Killing Flash did not kill punch the monkey ads and it didn't suddenly make web pages note efficient. It just changed the delivery mechanism.

Because if you spend more than 5 minutes with it you can determine numerous things about the "astonishing" images you have seen 1) the amount of human curation is huge. For every 1 good image shared there are dozen of utter crap n

Combination of MS and Intel. MS offered a massive discount on windows XP for netbooks as they saw the Linus writing on the wall. Intel choked of supply for people who wanted to build more fully feature netbooks - thus the constrained specs

This is what happens when you manage to metrics. "Engagement" is the metric and the incredibly obviously stupid problem with it as your optimisation goal that is apparently ungraspable by the leadership of every single social net

The early major variants Alpha and Delta were both more infectious and at least as deadly if not more so. We fluked it with Omicron.

Because the computation of Result is _expensive_ and _async_. So if you get two requests for the computation that computes Result in close succession the Map doesn't have the result in place for the second call and as a result you get
