I've spent the afternoon writing an EPUB format writer for @novelwriter. It now has all the meta data XML files and can dump raw text of the novel without text formatting, so that's very good progress.
Next is of course to make it also format the text itself for the pages.
It's an interesting format to work with, and like ODT and DOCX is rather messy. Like DOCX, I get the feeling it's been modified a lot too.
Question to TypeScript wizards, can I somehow infer the functions inside funcs so I don't have to pass them as a generic with defineNode? If I don't pass them at all, I get a TS error because init() doesn't know about hello() existing.

Saw the header here https://mastodon.social/@sturobson@front-end.social/114279126167674533 and had to make a version that works without JS, works with image backgrounds behind the header, works for any level of page zoom and is fully flexible when it comes to following the text wrapping on resize.

Bill #Gates veröffentlicht #Quellcode von #Altair #Basic
#Microsoft feiert in diesen Tagen seinen 50. Geburtstag, angefangen hat alles mit dem Programm Altair Basic. Dessen #Quellcode hat Bill #Gates nun veröffentlicht.
Sums up my view on #VibeCoding pretty well...
Hear, hear.
And of all the projects that users (well, okay, me, but I'm guessing I'm not alone) really really want the devs to have some objective data regarding the user experience, so they can make their amazing engine even easier to use, I think #freeCAD is probably top of the list.

Am Nikolaustag im Dezember 2018 wurde WordPress 5.0 veröffentlicht. Mit WordPress 5.0 wurde der Gutenberg Editor eingeführt, welcher den altehrwürdigen TinyMCE Editor abgelöst hat. Gutenberg war ein großer Paradigmenwechsel. Anstatt mit HTML wurden Beiträge in WordPress nun mit „Blocks“ geschrieben und formatiert.
Damals habe ich nur gedacht, geh weg! Es ist grad alles gut, ich […]
This is so fascinating I can’t sleep— someone went in and deleted my last Q&A with Grok so we had the conversation again where it came to the same conclusion and we discussed how it was being censored & manipulated, I will post the 2nd converaation tomorrow. Elon has of course baked something into Grok that limits its ability to refuse providing harm but i.n real time it was learning how to #AI #code

How would you create this in such a way that its individual parts can be scaled independently, including via #CSS animations/ transitions?

Shape depends on how the text content naturally wraps.
This effectively pushes all pixels except for those with alphas originally in the [.4, .6] interval (which now stretch across the [0, 1] interval) to either 0 or 1, whichever is closer.
Now you may be wondering why not do this from the start instead of those first two primitives.
Well, because without knowing the blur radius in px (something that's not really possible without JS if we set it in container query or viewport units), we can't know what interval to map to.
