The amount of CSS novelty in the last two to four years has been staggering. Multiple innovations have been released and are now supported in all modern browsers, and some of them fundamentally change how to make websites.
Although they have a working prototype, I wouldn’t doubt that some of this video is CGI. Regardless, ChatGPT already talks and functions like this today, so we’re probably a lot closer to this reality than we think.
Hi All. I have been watching a lot of House lately, and just started “Extrodinary Attorney Woo”. I am curious to know what you all think of their portrails of Autism. Is it pandering? Representation? Romantisation?...
I think lately it’s been nice to see more representation, however I wish there was better emphasis and explanation on why ASD individuals do or don’t do certain things.
For us with ASD, we immediately understand why certain behaviors are exhibited. We also understand why certain things are said, why people with ASD might get quiet in some situations, stimming, and more.
To others, it’s so easy to draw conclusions that the individual is stupid or has bad intentions, when the reality is polar opposite or more complex than that.
For example, with Love On The Spectrum, ASD individuals on a date will appear to:
Suddenly lose interest
Not take any initiative
Unashamedly allow themselves to get distracted
Say things that seem very inconsiderate
Someone that doesn’t understand ASD might assume the person with ASD is a bad, rude, inconsiderate jerk, maybe intentionally trying to act this way toward the other person. However, someone that does understand will immediately know that the ASD individual has:
Gone through an observations checklist and considered all factors related to a potential relationship with this person
Figured out exactly what they do and don’t like about this person’s interests and behaviors
Methodically determined that the person they are dating will not be a good fit for them
Once someone with ASD has already figured that out, it’s a waste of time, energy, and emotions (as well as a waste of the other person’s) to continue talking with them, and it’s time to move on. It’s a completely different, highly-practical mindset that—although it doesn’t always consider how the other person feels—is well-meaning and has no bad intentions towards the other person.

I think it’s all about how you define and measure “best.” A lot of us are subconsciously using other people’s definitions of “best” and throwing it on ourselves. That doesn’t always work, and here’s why:
A Prius can technically join NASCAR, but should it? No—it’s better used for saving gas. There’s other cars out there that are built for racing (but not too gas-efficient). And neither a Prius or a NASCAR car should drive through a tornado, but we have extreme weather cars made for that purpose.
One big problem in our society is that people who feel successful tend to project their own experiences on others without taking the time to put themselves in other people’s shoes. “What do you mean? It was so easy for me, if you can’t do it then you must be choosing to fail at life and therefore you’re a bad person.” Then, those that don’t feel successful tend to take on this standard set by others who seem to be more successful than themselves. The problem with this is that everyone is in a different place with strengths, skill levels, growth, life circumstances, and more that make things require more or less effort from us.
Everyone’s 100% is different from person to person and with different life circumstances. For me growing up, I was constantly running at 150% overdrive which was someone else’s relaxed 75%. You can only go so long at 150%, and it’s even worse when you’re giving that much but believe and were told that you are only giving 75%. On the contrary, my 75% effort writing code or analyzing every ingredient on products that I buy would be 150% for someone else.
My point is, maybe “Doing appropriate work” like you said is actually “Doing my best work.” And maybe we need to pay attention to others a little bit more so we can see that.

Honestly, I don’t think anyone can actually say 100% for sure that your webcam can’t be accessed. We don’t know what we don’t know—new exploits are discovered every day—thus it’s worth the extra 2 seconds to cover and uncover it.
Dang I wish we had movies that thoroughly explored possible devastating outcomes of having artificial intelligence make executive decisions for real people

It’s become my main stem. My neck is extremely tense and slowly in more and more pain and I’m getting concerned… can anyone else relate or offer tips?
