CityApp

fitzlab.shinyapps.io/cityapp

Kazan, Ufa, Moscow and Saint-Petersburg will be like Russian south in 60 years. Which is not that bad, actually. But some parts of the world will be heated so much, that there's nowhere that can be compared to it.

At long last! I haven't bought it and going to atm, but I'm already sure it's the best dithering software. It's powered by the library makew0rld had made before. Nice.

The Dual Nature of Events in Event-Driven Architecture

www.reactivesystems.eu/2024/10/31/the-dual-nature-of-events-in-eda.html

Given that events play such a central role in event-driven architecture, there’s an astonishing lack of agreement on what should be contained in an event. This may be rooted in the fact that, depending on your perspective, events fulfill different purposes.

Rotation with three shears

cohost.org/tomforsyth/post/891823-rotation-with-three

There's a graphics trick that used to be widely known that has now probably almost vanished from the graphics consciousness - you can do rotations by applying three shears in a row. This should surprise you! It surprised me. And it re-surprises me every time I remember it.

The most damaging exercise myth

bigthink.com/health/most-damaging-exercise-myth

It is widely believed that it is normal to become less physically active as you get older. But this is a pernicious myth about exercise.

Working out is beneficial when you're old. Well, I'm young, and I'm already crumbling. I should work out, I really should, but I don't like doing it...

КИТАЙСКИЕ СТИХИ, ДЗЭН И ЧАЙНАЯ КОМНАТА

t.me/HaikuDaily/1491

Как же японцы читают китайские стихи? По-китайски? Самое интересное, что нет.

Японцы читают, конечно же, по-японски - переставляя слова согласно японской грамматике и добавляя японские окончания, которые пишут азбукой. Если китайский текст длинный, то сбоку приписывают специальные символы, которые подсказывают, в каком порядке нужно читать иероглифы по-японски.

Keyboard Matrix Help

www.dribin.org/dave/keyboard/one_html

It took me a bit to figure this out, partly due to the fact of no really good explanation of it. So, I'm going to have a crack at it. Basically, I wanted to understand how keyboard matrices work. Specifically, I wanted to know why keyboard "ghosting" and "masking" happen, and how to prevent them.

All you need to know. That's a relic of the past century!
