Hot-reloading in Python can be slow since the entire server process must be restarted from scratch. The Tach package speeds this up by building a dependency map. Evan Doyle explained how it works with an interesting example.

To fix this, we give the assembly a tiny blur.

We don't want blurry edges👇 either, so we push some of the semitransparent edge pixels to either 0 or 1, whichever is closer. To do so, we use another `feComponentTransfer` and map the [0, 1] alpha interval to [-2, 3]. Basically we're stretching the alpha interval to be 5 times bigger, keeping same midpoint (.5), then it's clamped to [0, 1].

How the assembly alpha is computed is something I've detailed in 👉 css-tricks.com/adventures-in-c

Keep in mind that where we have overlap, two corresponding pixels from the two layers may both have an alpha below .5, but their overlap can still give the assembly an alpha above .5!

For example:

.4 + .3 - .4*.3 = .7 - .12 = .58

Both .4 and .3 are smaller than .5, but the overlap alpha .58 is bigger than .5!

As you can see in the recording 👆 blurring makes the pixels around the edges semitransparent. The bigger the blur radius, the more pixels become transparent.

When the particles get closer, their semitransparent areas overlap. This increases the assembly alpha there.

What's going on here?

We have particles moving around inside a `.goo` assembly. How we do that (layout, animation) doesn't matter.

We blur these particles with a #CSS #filter (same blur radius or not). CSS allows us to use whatever unit we need for the blur radius. rem, cqi, lh.

At @agaric team meeting today we talked a little about the future of #Drupal and #WebDevelopment more generally and talked about trying to help get us into the best of both worlds where a design-on-the-fly "page builder" can easily have elements that tie back into true structured content. Heartened to pick up Greg Dunlap's new book Designing Content Authoring Experiences and see this (underline added, heh):

Photograph of the last paragraph of a chapter in a book with the central sentence underlined: "The balance between content structure and presentational flexibility is one of the defining forces that drives the authoring experience."
