How I use Claude for 2D website animations 👇... 1. Ask Claude to create CSS keyframes for floating or bounce effects 2. Use Claude to write fade-up animations on scroll 3. Ask Claude for parallax code for backgrounds 4. Generate hover effects like glow, scale, rotate buttons 5. Use Claude to animate text word by word 6. Paste the code, adjust timing, launch Save this tutorial 🚀show more

While working on a new video with solutions to... the previous one, I found ChatGPT's new UI struggles even more with concurrent updates: entries lose state and stick around for too long (see video). If this was a LiveView app, we would be getting so much flak.😅 --- I believe part of the problem here is having separate mutate and fetch requests on every deletion. The first fetch is cancelled when the second one comes up, causing items to stick around for longer. Many said yesterday that you could do the mutation and fetch as a single request, but that leads to other problems, such zombie entries. For example, imagine you delete link1 and link2 within a brief period of time. There is no guarantee the deletion order in the database will match the order the client receives the response, so you may end up with this: 1. (client) request to delete link1 sent 2. (client) request to delete link2 sent 3. (server) deletes link1 and loads a new list (includes link2) 4. (server) deletes link2 and loads a new list (no link1 or link2) 5. (client) receives link2 response 6. (client) receives link1 response So if you choose to use the latest response (link1), you brought link2 back to life. If you say you will use the response from the last request, events 3-4 can be swapped, and now you bring link1 back to life. Another way to solve this is by basically not allowing concurrent requests at all but that can affect the user experience drastically in other ways. Next week I should publish a video explaining how LiveView tackles this. Stay tuned!show more

Batch Normalization by hand ✍️ ~ 7 steps walkthrough... below Batch normalization is common practice for improving training and achieving faster convergence. It sounds simple. But it is often misunderstood. 🤔 Does batch normalization involve trainable parameters, tunable hyper-parameters, or both? 🤔 Is batch normalization applied to inputs, features, weights, biases, or outputs? 🤔 How is batch normalization different from layer normalization? So I drew and calculated one entirely by hand. Goal: normalize a mini-batch of 4 examples to mean 0 and variance 1, then let the network scale it back. = 1. Given = A mini-batch of 4 training examples, each with 3 features. = 2. Linear layer = Let us multiply by the weights and add the biases. Batch norm sits after this, which answers the second question: what gets normalized is features, not inputs, weights or biases. = 3. ReLU = We apply the activation, and -2 becomes 0. Negative values are suppressed before any statistic is taken. = 4. Batch statistics = Let us compute the sum, mean, variance and standard deviation, one row at a time. A row is a feature and the four columns are the four examples, so every number here measures one feature against the rest of the batch. That is the "batch" in batch normalization, and it is exactly what layer normalization does not do. The statistics are rounded to whole numbers, which is what keeps the rest of the page doable in pen. = 5. Shift to mean 0 = We subtract the mean, in green. The four values in each feature now average to zero. = 6. Scale to variance 1 = Let us divide by the standard deviation, in orange. Each feature now has variance one, whatever scale it arrived at. = 7. Scale and shift = We multiply by a linear transformation and pass the result on. The diagonal and the last column are trainable, so having just forced every feature to mean 0 and variance 1, we hand the network the means to undo it. The outputs: Mean of each feature = [2, 1, 2] Std dev of each feature = [1, 1, 2] To the next layer = [2, -2, 2, 0], [-3, 3, 6, -3], [2, 0, 1, 2] The answers: 🤔 Both. The scale and shift are trainable, the statistics are not. Epsilon and the momentum on the running statistics are the hyper-parameters, and one mini-batch by hand needs neither. 🤔 Features, after the linear layer, not inputs, weights or biases. 🤔 Batch norm measures across the batch, one feature at a time. Layer norm measures across the features, one example at a time. 💾 Save this post!show more

So… how do we feel about the new Community... Patch for Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered? I think Aspyr wanted to save his 4ss somehow listening to what fans ask since 2024 after the disaster they made with that Challenge Mode patch. Apparently the only version with glitches is the mobile one, so TR1-3 on consoles and pc is safe for now. We should be loud about graphical updates since they downgraded by mistake a few levels on patch 3 (?) replacing 3D objects with 2D ones for no actual reasons, example: Opera House had 3D wall ladders and lamps, with patch 4 they downgraded everything with 2D objects.

Today is Fuuka's birthday! Someone who cooks for thousands... on her own, running errands for ingredients herself every single day. Always busy looking after someone else — the kind of person who'd probably forget her own birthday entirely. Ask her if it's hard, and she'd smile and say she's fine. But somewhere behind that smile, there's probably one quiet wish: just one ordinary, peaceful day. Today might be a good day for Sensei to reach out first and ask if she's eaten. Because today, someone should be looking after Fuuka. #BlueArchiveshow more

Every day, countless Indie puppies and dogs sleep hungry... on roads, hide in fear during storms, survive accidents, cruelty, heat, and loneliness all while waiting for someone to notice them, love them, and choose them. They do not ask for luxury. They do not ask for perfect homes. They only ask for safety, kindness, and a family to call their own. Indie dogs are some of the most loving, intelligent, loyal, and grateful souls you will ever meet. Once rescued, they love with their whole heart. They remember every act of kindness and repay it with endless loyalty. While many spend thousands buying breeds, our own Indies continue to suffer silently on the streets, abandoned simply because they were born there. Please open your heart. Visit a shelter, meet a rescued Indie puppy or dog, and give them the life they have always deserved. Adopting one dog may not change the whole world, but for that one dog, the world changes forever. Adopt an Indie. Save a life. Gain a best friend for life. #AdoptDontShopshow more

Make sure to vet your instructors and report anyone... like this so they can never pick up a firearm again. I know we joke around here but this kind of negligence is exactly how people die. How to vet a firearms instructor: •Certifications are a baseline. NRA, USCCA, or state credentials are common, but they don’t guarantee skill or good teaching. •Ask who trained them. Good instructors are lifelong students. If they haven’t taken a class recently, that’s a red flag. •Experience ≠ expertise. Military or law enforcement backgrounds are cool, but don’t assume they’re good at teaching civilians. •They should ask about you. Your goals, your experience, your comfort level. If it’s all about them, move on. •Safety should be front and center. They need a plan, a trauma kit, and should talk safety early and often. •Check their online presence. Do they have student reviews? Do they list prices and course content clearly? •They should be respectful. If you’re in the LGBTQ+ community, a person of color, or new to guns, you should feel welcomed—not judged or tested. •Beware ego trips. If it’s just war stories, tough guy energy, or gear obsession, they’re not focused on teaching you. •Trust your gut. If anything feels off, walk away. There are plenty of good instructors who actually care. A good instructor doesn’t just make you a better shooter. They make you safer, more confident, and more prepared. Demand that.show more

you're asking for app reviews WRONG Ernesto Lopez and... i got 2,700 reviews in the last two weeks on 16,000 downloads that's a 17% review rate higher than 99.9% of apps here's the playbook: don't ask for reviews at the end don't use a random social proof screen to ask for it that's what everyone else does ASK for the review right after the AHA moment the emotional peak the moment the user thinks "this app actually works" examples: - right after a shocking insight - right after the user gets their first win - right after they FEEL the value in our case we ask for the review right after: - their first prayer - their first streak - around 10 minutes of time investment by then, we've already hit them with shockers like "you'll spend 16 years of your life scrolling... but you can't give God 5 minutes?" then the app becomes the solution the relief the reset by the time the review prompt shows up people are convinced they need the appshow more

If Peter Obi truly said, “Nobody knows the qualifications... required to be Nigerian President,” then that statement deserves serious scrutiny. Because Nigeria’s Constitution is not silent on who is qualified to contest for President. There are clearly stated constitutional requirements covering citizenship, age, political-party sponsorship and educational qualification. So the real question is not whether “nobody knows.” The real question is: does a man seeking to lead Nigeria understand the constitutional framework governing the very office he wants to occupy? This is where leadership must go beyond popularity, emotional appeal and social-media enthusiasm. A presidential candidate should understand the Constitution. He should understand the powers of the office. He should understand the limits of the office. He should understand the qualifications for seeking that office. Nigeria is too complicated to be governed by vibes. The presidency is not an experiment. It is an institution governed by law. Peter Obi’s supporters may defend the statement as context, humour or rhetoric, and that context should be considered. But if the statement is being presented literally, then Nigerians are entitled to ask uncomfortable questions. Before anyone asks for the keys to Aso Rock, Nigerians should first ask: Does he understand the constitutional door he is trying to enter? 2027 should be about competence, preparation, constitutional literacy and capacity. Not just popularity.show more

🚨SHAMI & SIRAJ ARE NOT IN THE PRIORITY LIST... OF SELECTORS - ZAHEER KHAN🤯 Zaheer Khan said :🗣️ "If you ask me today, then i will say that Mohammed Shami & Mohammed Siraj are not in the priority list of the selectors. It doesn't means that the doors are closed, it doesn't means that tgey can't play further for India. They have to do their stuff regularly & eventually they can be rewarded with a chance soon. Indian management prefers a bowler who can bat, that's why Harshit Rana is right up there in the priority list. Shami & Siraj should have the hunger & they should believe that they can make a comeback".show more

Dear Ashwini Vaishnaw ji, We are so happy that... you are relaunching the IRCTC website in 30 days. Instead of working on CAPCHA, please ensure the following: 1. The Site should not crash during Tatkal bookings. Zero crashes especially during payments. 2. Ensure that Senior Citizens get Lower Berths (even now, many Senior citizens get Middle or Upper) even if they book a little later (Algorithm can be fixed) 3. Introduce More General Coaches to accommodate more Travelers 4. Strict Penalty for Unreserved Passengers occupying Reserved Seats. Work on AI cameras to detect this 5. RAC passengers should only pay half the fare for half the seat. So, once chart is prepared, please refund the 50% fare. This can easily be incorporated using simple technology. 6. If any train is delayed for more than 2 hours, refund should be issued automatically. 10% per hour delay. This can be done with some technology. 7. People's time should be valued. Tech can be used for the same. CAPCHA can wait. These things cannot !!! Request my audience to add more points so that the new website can have all these things in next 30 days 😍 #FIshow more
