OpenAI's Studio Ghibli meme factory is an insult to art itself Sam Altman is promoting his new image generator by appropriating the work of one of the greatest living animators—who is "disgusted" by AI.

OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait.

Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to them tech has won.

Thanks. I guess Web Components weren't the right choice for my project. I built a plugin for an Electron app, and updating my plugin results in an error because the components from the previous version are still defined. It works after restarting the app, but that's not exactly user-friendly.

Do you use @obsidian.md ? Do you enjoy reading and statistics? You might want to check out my plugin, now available in Obsidian's community plugins. It's still in early development, and there are more things to come, but I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions!

Is it possible to unregister or redefine a web component? The CustomElementRegistry doesn't support it, but does anyone know a workaround?

#webcomponent

Yeah, thanks PhpStorm, I know that... but... rosemary?!?

Latest addition to my library. Pretty sure I need a spotter to read this.

One thing that never ceases to amaze me about programming is how things always turn out differently than you expect. Even building a prototype only gets you so far because everything you glossed over ends up affecting the design in the end.

When you've reached the pinnacle of blues guitar and now get your kicks from conversations about web components and micro-frameworks in deeply buried Bluesky threads.

It's TS

Do you use a library/micro-framework to avoid boilerplate? Now that I know a bit more than I did when I made the video, I'm starting to get where lit saves time/unnecessary typing. However, I'm going to stick to my plan and build one iteration as raw as it gets, just for the experience.

so I probably won't change it unless there's a specific reason. That said, my colleagues prefer Vite, so whenever I set up a new project at work, I bootstrap it using one of the templates. This has worked fairly well, so I'd probably use it for Web Components too.

So far, I've read the book cover to cover, written a few web components in vanilla JS without any tooling and then returned to the Obsidian plugin. Obsidian's sample plugin uses esbuild, and I just kept it that way. I'm mostly a backend guy and a lot of the frontend tooling gives me severe headaches

This one came in the mail today. No TypeScript, but at first glance it's as raw as it gets 😅

Two yellowed pages from the book "Turbo Pascal 7.0" by Walter J. Savitch from 1993. You can tell just from the looks that this thing smells like an old book - musty and smokey

It smells the way it looks

I got tired of mocking frameworks in class-based languages, so I created the simplest, most compatible, and most powerful mocking library that I could imagine. It's great for PHP / Java and other class-based languages.

Yeah, I hadn't thought of that. I'll do that next time. Thanks for the suggestion!

For all the newcomers, I’ve created a starter pack of just a few of the awesome voices from the #PHP community to get you started here at Bluesky.

Don’t stop with these folks, though. There are so many other amazing PHP devs to follow! Check out who these folks follow for more.
