Does anyone know what this is?

a joke

what you are doing is called “Individualization of Responsibility” and it is a successfull tactic used by fossil-fuel-lobbies to shift blame away from themselves.

edit: don’t get me wrong. I don’t think you are doing this intentionally. But I do think, that by accident you are being useful to fossil-fuel companies

yeah, but
C_1 = pi * d = 3,14 * 18 = 56,52
C_2 = pi * d * 2 = 3,14 * 12 * 2 = 75,36

so the smaller ones have 50% more crust and are therefor more delicious.

rotoscoping

example?

(I didn’t notice any, but that may be, because I only notice rotoscoping, when it’s done badly)

tbh they both have way too many options.

meh, I prefer RFC 3339

it’s the nickname for Frieren

could you elaborate?

I thought 葬送 just means “going to a funeral”. How can this translate to “the undertaker”?

why would they put CGI trains in a promo visual??

Great adoption of the manga. I am hyped for the next episode.

The way demons are depicted reminds me a lot of LLMs (and AI in general).

• Less powerful demons have no understanding of human thought and are really bad at fooling people (see the girl-demon in the flashback).

• Medium powerful demons still have no understanding of human thought, but are somewhat good at imitating people (see the present-day demons from todays EP).

• More powerwull demons…

  Spoiler

  start to develop more complex strategies for fooling humans.

• While the most powerfull demons

  Spoiler

  are implementing strategies that trancent both human strategies and the original demon strategies.

this article by scott alexander does a good job of explaining how AI’s are inhuman intelligences, that are trying to fool humans into thinking they have morals. https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/perhaps-it-is-a-bad-thing-that-the

Will this fight be included in this season? I am hyped already.

the user interface is confusing (at least on desktop).

• the title is not readable when the image has light colors in it, e.g:
• it seems to save what shows I have started, but i don’t see where it is stored (e.g. do I have an account? is it in local storage? can I sync my progress between devices?) edit: after looking at the github, it seems to be a PWA, so storage is probably local storage, I guess?
• the target audience is not obvious to me. I gues it is for anonymous watching of single episodes without an account and without any social features or watch lists? Is it aimed at casual watchers or power users?
• it would be nice to see what exactly the release is of the show I am watching (official subs? fan subs? BD release?)

my recommendations:

• clean up the start page:
  • the header with the random show confuses me a lot. I would just get rid of it
  • the news on the side-bar seems to be out-of-scope. It adds to the confusion, but doesn’t seem to add to the main function of the app. I would also just get rid of it
  • “continue watching” should be the first group. And I should be able to remove stuff from that list easily. Alternatively: a dedicated page for “continue watching” that I could safe as a bookmark.
• the start-page should tell the user
  • what to expect from this website,
  • whom it is targeted at and
  • how it is intended to use (e.g. with a link to a help page)
• regarding the player :
  • It would be nice to be able to select different streaming sources.
  • since it’s a PWA, it would be nice to auto-download episodes and watch them in offline mode later (kinda like mangas on tachiyomi). I am not sure how difficult that may be though. But I guess this would be killer-feature for this app for watching anime on train rides.

in general I recommend to have a clear vision, and a simple UI that makes it painfully obvious for use how to use the app. User feedback is very important, but it is more stick with a clear vision. It’s ok to update the vision based on user feedback, but when you do, don’t do it accidentally (which would result in massive feature creep), and instead do it intentionally (which ususually comes with a removal of features, that clash with the new vision). I also strongely recommend to have a simple and clean architecture, and be wary of new features that don’t fit into your envisioned architecture.
