Great for charts, illustrations etc, can do much more with SVG than pretty pictures. Good spatial understanding in an SVG can be really nice for model to have

It's more expensive than Gemini flash which can actually write pretty decent code (not just apply a diff). Fast AI edit application is definitely great but that's pretty expensive

Morph v3 fast: Input: $1.20 / M tokens, Output $2.70 / M tokens

Gemini 2.5 Flash: $0.30 / M tokens, Output $2.50 / M tokens

In 2-3 years once this begins to matter for a new project you can probably just put the codebase into context and the "make it DRY" prompt will work. Already works with 2-3 files.

Any perf improvement is great but the way they promote it seems a bit much?

1.7% faster navigation times 2% faster startup times 5% to 7% improvement in web page responsiveness

I'd say in practice a 2% faster startup time is probably barely noticeable?

There is also unintentional randomness due to the parallelism in inference (e.g. parallel matmuls added together on the GPU). Since it's multiplying floats every operation has rounding drift that accumulates differently depending on the order of operations. So even at temperature 0 you're not getting deterministic outputs

I've done a few impulse purchases from FB / Instagram ads (a razor, two ebooks, signed up to a subscription service). I'm very happy with these purchases.

Are you saying advertising on FB/IG doesn't work in general?

For those only reading comments, the author plans to hire a developer to address touchpad issues. You can help:

- Take the Linux Touchpad Experience Poll: https://www.gitclear.com/polls/linux_touchpad_experience

- Become a sponsor on GitHub: https://github.com/gitclear/libinput (GitHub matches every donation up to $5k, so your $5 can become $10)

Wgpu-rs on the web 6 years ago

Even though I agree with the benefits of having control over updates seeing how popular SaaS has become I find it quite likely this will happen to (many kinds of) Apps as well.

And have not been used in the US for 6 years

(from the wikipedia article linked above)

In the United States, the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012 required that all full-body scanners operated in airports by the Transportation Security Administration use "Automated Target Recognition" software, which replaces the picture of a nude body with the cartoon-like representation.[3] As a result of this law, all backscatter X-ray machines formerly in use by the Transportation Security Administration were removed from airports by May 2013, since the agency said the vendor (Rapiscan) did not meet their contractual deadline to implement the software.[4]

AMP does not actually make loading any faster

Every AMP link i click on google loads crazy fast. I don't know why the implementation details or google's incentivizing it would make this not count for some reason.

I don't like what amp is doing to the web either but the user experience is really good, pages do load much quicker than your average page and I find myself preferring them a lot over the uncertainty and frustration when you click other links on a bad connection

I think they say this specifically, grey is better to distinguish shadows but if you want to conserve energy you can go with true black.

UIs that require efficient battery usage can use true black. In these cases, some devices (such as wearables with OLED screens) can turn off any pixels that display black to conserve battery power.

What do you mean by discouragement against emulating shadows? As I read it the shadows stay the same as on the light theme. Are you referring to what they call "glows"?

In a dark theme, components retain the same default elevation levels and shadows as components in lighter themes

It looks pretty good in the examples they give IMO. Considering that the default makes such heavy use of elevation it makes sense to keep that concept in the UI.

Default themes use shadows to express elevation, while a dark theme also expresses elevation by adjusting the surface

I recommend you try using HMR mode, a medium sized project takes about 5 seconds to build. The stuff then updates without even needing to refresh the page, you can even store state and scroll position in between the module swapping. It really changes the way I develop a lot.
