When you switch the list to show just HTML/CSS colors, it's all the colors in the corner.

It's always struck me as odd how there are so many off-white colors in HTML/CSS compared to the rest of the space.

It's superfluous because the arrow already points in a direction; the line animation doesn't tell you anything the arrowhead doesn't.

The enemy cap all but forces the arena style gameplay. Doom 2016 tried to hide it more, but it still felt very stifling.

Yeah, that seems bad. The whole point of the diagram was to explain something better than prose could, and now it is lost. I'm thinking the case were someone can make out the shapes/arrows/colors well, but not the text.

Would this tell the screen reader to just ignore it? Then you'd lose all accessibility for its content.

Accessibility question: how do screen readers handle ascii art-style diagrams like this? It seems like they would be overwhelmed by the lines.

> Llm to text to diagram is the killer workflow these days. It's useful, but I think only marginally. When using a diagrams-as-code tool, having an LLM write it for you gets you up and running faster, but long term you have more con

Well, yeah, obviously. Where you get the millions of dollars to buy those short names isn't so obvious, though.

Mixing this with a metaphor from earlier: giving a child a credit card is also a floor raiser.

Thanks for this feedback. I just tried with a trackpad, and was surprised to see pinch gestures were triggering "wheel" (i.e. mouse wheel) events. This wasn't intended behavior, and should now be fixed. I'll have a think

There are quite a few tools that offer this model-based approach; you define your resources in a model, then use them in multiple perspectives to show different aspects like you describe. Some, like Ilograph[0] (my project), offer interacti

Nobody was stopping anyone from making compilers that introduced random different behavior every time you ran them. I think it's telling this didn't catch on.

Cell phone lines only $30/line when you buy six. What, you don't have a family of six? Weird.

When it's in silhouette you don't know what direction it is facing, technically. I think what's happening is when you see a shot of something flying in front of something prominent (in this case, the moon), your brain natural
