Okay, fine, @jonty cajoled me into it. Lighter is more traffic; warmer is more positive anomaly for the day.
Now, certain nerds and haters might squint at this and say “It looks like you did this in oklab color space and then tried to half-ass some gamut mapping when you remembered that a lot of the highest z scores are in places with very low traffic counts!” and I would rebut that in scrupulous detail with one simple argument: Good night.

Today was ... interesting. If you followed me for the past months over on the shitbird site, you might have seen a bunch of angry German words, lots of graphs, and the occassional news paper, radio, or TV snippet with yours truely. Let me explain.
In Austria, inflation is way above the EU average. There's no end in sight. This is especially true for basic needs like energy and food.
Our government stated in May that they'd build a food price database together with the big grocery chains. But..

I just had an epiphany. Hear me out:
The *real* reason some people don't like CSS is because it's the only programming language that makes your skill with it (or lack thereof) visible and obvious to anyone who sees your work.
People who don't like CSS actually don't like that it doesn't let them bullshit their way through it.

I didn’t know how deliberately unprofitable Unity was, I assumed they had modest profits before the VC nonsense [edit: actually they did pre 2016] Billions of debt. They did the thing of burning through money to wipe everyone else out & get into a position of dominance, before hitting the screw-tightening button on their captive customer base. You know, the standard late capitalism shitty monopolist manoeuvre. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/unitys-self-combustion-engine-this-week-in-business

Mastodon FeedThe #Rust Foundation keeps fucking up.
Now they’re taking pocket change for endorsing a DoD contractor that wants to automate murder (“AI to deliver faster and more accurate decision-making at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels”).
Is there nobody at this soulless corporate institution that could say “wait, are we the baddies?”

Quite an irony seeing people commenting on a Musk-bashing article about "ugh, this guys again". Yes, he will be "again and again" precisely because people like you can't hold themselves from leaving their useless "ugh" in the comments.
Same with Trump and all this "oh horrible mainstream media propping him up". Yes, it sells. Because you keep reading it and having tantrums about it.
(I'm not complaining btw, I'm resigned to human nature being what it is.)

Side note: Cruel Summer is off Lover, which came out in 2019, but was just released this year as a single.
Has any artist ever released a single off an album from four years and three albums ago? That's just wild to me.
