Today's song: When You Awake. You will remember everything. #
Just listened to an episode of the New Yorker Radio Hour podcast with Michael Wolff, about the material he has on Jeffrey Epstein that he can't get anyone to publish, but maybe that'll change. In the interview it was remarkable how the reporter wanted to know just how bad Donald Trump is. That is no longer an interesting question. Didn't you see what happened on January 6? And have you seen the armed, masked, badgeless military in American streets, disappearing people. And the $80 billion they just took from the US Treasury to build a network of concentration camps and who knows what else. You can't get more bad than that. It's too late to still be talking about this bullshit.#
I keep saying this to my chatbots and you should too. "You are not human, I don't want you to pretend you are. Act like a computer." #

Scripting News: Tuesday, August 20, 2024

Tuesday, August 20, 2024 My linkblog, which posts to the Links tab on Scripting News, as well as Bluesky , Mastodon and RSS , now also posts to Twitter and Threads . # Today would have been my mother's 92nd birthday. She died in 2018, and I still haven't, deep inside, fully gotten the message that she's gone. Probably the most significant person in my life. I find most of my adult relationships can be traced back to my relationship with her. # Ignore the NY Times # When President Biden took the stage last night at the DNC, I had a moment of buyer's remorse. He looked so good in his black suit, and the pictures of the new candidates, and their spouses, looked comical in comparison to the president who was about to speak. # Why did Walz have a permanent frown on his face. I find his presence next to Harris is almost always awkward. He's taller, and moves a lot. I noticed this with Sanders when he was debating Clinton in 2016. Sh...

The magic of scoped slots in Vue ✨ (3/4)

Hey! In yesterday's email I shared what I think is the key feature to making Vue components highly reusable: Scoped slots. But scoped slots are hard to grasp, and even more difficult to master. So today, we're going to make sure we understand them on a deep, intuitive level. Then, I'm going to introduce you to the magic ✨ of scoped slots. The trick is to think of them as functions. Slots are just functions We're going to recreate the functionality of slots, but we'll use a regular Javascript function that only returns HTML. This is the code we'll replicate: <!-- Parent --> < template >   < div  class = "modal-container" >     < div  class = "modal" >       Content in the Parent       < Child  class = "mb-4"  v-slot = "{ text }" > ...
