Pod čarou: Když nevidíme pod povrch technologií, ztrácíme nad nimi moc - Seznam Zprávy

Abychom se s technologiemi naučili pracovat, musíme nejdřív vědět, jak fungují. Je to však stále těžší úkol a dnešní Pod čarou proto zkoumá, proč nás digitální giganti zatvrzele odmítají pustit do útrob svých kouzelných udělátek.

Don’t say ‘privilege’: can the left find better words for talking with people on the right?

Polarizing words may be throwing progressives off course – but research might hold lessons for the left on how to have more meaningful conversations

Pod čarou: Historie se neopakuje. Seriály i učebnice na to někdy zapomínají - Seznam Zprávy

Při sledování historických filmů občas zažíváme pocit, že naši předkové byli stejní jako my. Mnohem důležitější je ale zdůrazňovat, jak bývaly různé historické etapy až nepříjemně odcizené našemu myšlení a hodnotám.

testing your animation refresh rate with css crimes??

(Seems to behave weirdly on multi-monitor mixed-refresh-rate setups. Also, if you use Reduced Motion, make sure to turn it off for the animation to work) To read it, look for the lowest number which isn’t turning and which appears in dark text (ie isn’t flickering on alternate frames). Original version, supports 30/48/50/60/90/120/144hz: Warning: flickering imagery, open at your discretion. A zoetrope-like disc covered with numbers carefully arranged in patterns. As it spins, the viewer's refresh rate remains visually stable amidst a flurry of other dancing numbers.

A zoetrope-like disc covered with numbers carefully arranged in patterns. As it spins, the viewer's refresh rate remains visually stable amidst a flurry of other dancing numbers.
