You need some JS to change an attribute as much as you need JS to change a property. What am I missing? I hope the command attribute ( https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Reference/... )

Of course I have no sway, politically or otherwise, but I would have happily given credit to Trump where it was due if it panned out. But Israel does not seem to have abided by the ceasefire, and the larger peace plan now feels like it&#x27

Has there actually been a ceasefire in practice? People are still dying, guns are still being fired afaik. And the broader plan does not instill confidence with Tony Blair proposed as a technocratic leader of the area

Ha yes, see one of my other comments to another reply. I never got to use it when I last worked with OpenAPI but it seemed like the antidote to the verbosity. Glad to hear someone had positive experience with it. I'll definitely try it

by WickyNilliams 10mo ago
Not necessarily, no. But at a certain point, I believe it does. Difficult to read, is difficult to edit, is difficult to work with. A sibling comment to your reply expressed the same sentiment as me, and also mentioned typespec as a possibl

I imagine you are very much in the minority. A simple hello world is like a screen full of yaml. The equivalent in graphql (or typespec which I always wanted to try as an authoring format for openapi https://typespec.io/ ) w

Yes, Apollo not leading people down the correct path has given people a warped perception of what the benefits actually are. Colocation is such a massive improvement that's not really replicated anywhere else - just add your data requi

There is json-schema which is a sort of dialect/extension of OpenAPI which offers support for fetching relations (and relations of relations etc) and selecting a subset of fields in a single request https://json-schema.org&#

by WickyNilliams 10mo ago
This is very much possible, and I have done it, and it works great once it's all wired up. But OpenAPI is verbose to the point of absurdity. You can't feasibly write it by hand. So you can't do schema first development. You n

I don't often watch live/terrestrial TV. On the odd occasion I do, I'm taken aback. I forget how frequent, jarring, and obtrusive they are. And in recent years, it seems that gambling ads are more and more common. It's r

"someone with 100k dollars" is not exactly "the masses". It is a larger set, but it's just more rich/powerful people. Which I would not describe as the "masses". I know what you mean, but that descrip

Fair. Though Thiel has outsized influence in that sphere, so it is significant even if not universal

Thanks that sounds fascinating. Will take a look

Are you familiar with Curtis Yarvin, and his influence with Thiel, JD Vance etc? He absolutely advocates for monarchy and dismantling democracy. He's also, if we are to judge his extensive writing, very much a racist https:/&#x2F

I think it's lost on people outside of the UK - perhaps even to many inside the UK - just how strongly there is a class divide and a ruling elite. The old money is very old indeed

Writing is a tool for thought I feel, and when you're outsourcing your thought, it detracts from whatever you intended to say. I guess if it was that heavily-edited such a telltale sign wouldn't have remained. I use AI for code, b

Nothing there implies I was forced. I read the whole thing. It was not disclosed that it was written (in part?) by AI. And That sentence I quoted was pretty far along.

It's often the case that screen readers do not support the more exotic aspects of html (hell even some basics, unfortunately). The browser may add a reference from one to the other in the accessibility tree, but whether a screenreader

Not a screen reader user but I have used them a lot in testing. I'd be surprised if it's meaningfully exposed to assistive tech. Not at the computer right now so I can't test. That said, I imagine it's more useful to do

When he's discussing "native Brits" he is clearly, if indirectly, referring to white British people. He links to a Wikipedia page as citation for his statistic, and that statistic on Wikipedia is _explicitly_ about white peop
