This wasn’t already the case??

This is why we need the map! I’m curious which prediction would be accurate.

It would be neat to have an interactive version where you can select different factors to control for, including pop. density, wealth level, children per family, etc.

Right, but that’s exactly my point, it likely wouldn’t just be one flat color. If you scale it by population density you get a map displaying the average distance between kids and parents compared to the average distance between any two people which I would expect to be 1. non-uniform and 2. more meaningful than raw kid-parent distance. The current map is useful and accurate, but I think the more interesting contributing factors are being drowned out by raw population density. Deciding what factors to control for (ie. pop. density, wealth level, etc.) results in a different meaningful outcome and is very important to consider when making conclusions based on the map. The image’s scale is probably too granular to do this analysis but if the raw data is finer-grained I would love to see a density-controlled version.

Thank you! I love VS Code

Fun hiccup fact: the default human state is hiccups, and there’s a small part of the brain that normally suppresses them. There have been rare cases where it’a damaged and someone just… never stops hiccupping. A fate worse than death imo.

I spent like 3 hours yesterday deduplicating two functions that were hundreds of lines long and nearly identical. I should probably learn how to use that git command that can diff two files on disk. Luckily I actually enjoy cleaning up code sometimes.

It would be interesting to scale this by population density

Unfortunately there’s no URL to go with that feature, it must be JS-activated. Same goes for the Recently Uploaded and Watched tabs which are new in that same vein.

I’ve started just mentally replacing it with “rot”

This was never supposed to be a word. Why are we doing this

Not in such a convenient package!

The language wasn’t that complex

Oh really? Neat

Nuclear power plants don’t make nuclear bombs…

Why wait for a click? Each ribbon tab has submenus with their contents already visible (no necessary click --> hover/click --> hover in submenu without letting your mouse leave for even 1 pixel) and the state of each option represented in whatever way is most convenient (button, toggle, dropdown, etc.). A menu doesn’t show all options in one category at once, doesn’t fully show their state, and closes itself every time you mess up a mouse movement if it’s programmed badly. The lack of names can be bad, but the learning curve for identifying options (hovering and seeing the name) isn’t worse than it is for finding options in a menu (searching every menu until you find the right option).
