Critic time. This site is more enterprise-vanilla. Like many others you have fallen to the trap of using any dom api feature, without stopping for a second and thinking, "Do I really need this? Does it actually make my life/code easier?" The answer is no. 26 lines of code to add a single avatar image with alt text? This should have been a 1 liner.

You don't have to use every feature out there. Getters that return 1 element that will never change. Splitting what should have been 1 style.css into 5 different files. Too many "best practices" for "complex" software.

Cool website and notion, but, I mean, it's a fucking stone. There are like a billion of them, just laying around, older than all humans. I wish my life was this carefree. I will start my own stone lifting club, everyone is welcome, lift till you drop.

The only real reason to use PWA so far was access to Web Push Notifications on iOS, which likely to stop working altogether. If you fork $99 to apple, you may be able to use "Safari Push Notifications". Maybe one of their 600 new apis will allow Chrome to show notifications?

You are either young or don't know any better. All major companies have bug bounties program and consistently, every few weeks, payout CRITICAL level bounties, as in attacker managed to get full server/access to any account etc. Security breaches are just a matter of time. Who is to blame is debatable, since being a criminal and breaking and stealing (into digital or physical business) is against the law.

Yeah right. lol. And that is a clear signal that Ukraine was behind it. But as always the warmongers will try 4d chess to convince you Russia did it, like it blew nord stream, attacked crimea bridge, and shot missiles into Poland.

The whole shtick (and beauty) of Javascript is that it is a dynamic language. In some point in time corporate Java people started using JS, and now we have this : "is well understood that static typing is a good thing". It's not. But as always you have a vocal minority, influencers and evangelists shouting their BS, about how TypeScript has terraformed theirs lives and they can't imagine life without it.

Use your head, if you don't like TS, don't use it.

Those who have something to lose would not have done it (aka the countries that need the gas, or the country that provides it). Poland is a very interesting idea, since even if they are caught, they are the ones providing the gas to Europe now, and refusing to deal with them is not an option.

At bare minimum I can think of the 3D space the character is in, and rotate and shift it to any location and position I can dream of, even if I have never seen it before. When we will have 3D aware AI, that would be interesting.

How much of it is it `painting` though? It looks like your typical startup, combine two ideas into one. (Image) Search engine + Photoshop. You enter some prompts, it searches it's database for matches, and meshes all found results into a single visually pleasing image. Can it draw something that is not a mesh or a variation of it's database? Can you?
