#Virtual DOM and Performance

purecode ai company reviews | Virtual DOM and Performance

What sets React apart from other libraries and frameworks is its implementation of the Virtual DOM. Instead of updating the entire DOM every time a user interacts with an application, React creates an in-memory cache of the DOM, the virtual DOM, and only updates the parts of the actual DOM that changed.

Day fourteen - Connor group part 2/2

@corrienteallita, @eljeebee, @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants, @hashimasims, @jonquilyst, @riverofjazzsims

Isla: Woohoo! I'm so happy I won; I can't wait for our solo date, Deanna!

Kaye: Yes! *fist pumps* Wait Isla did you just curse?

Isla: Wait did I? No I meant like happy woohoo not woohoo woohoo

Kaye: *snickers*

Isla: *gasps then sighs* Okay I walked in to that one

Solo dates were two hours long. Deanna arranged for a beach trip and made some ice cream as a snack. She then did one friendly and one romantic interaction. The rest of the date was whatever happened autonomously.

Kaye is ambivalent about the beach but is excited for sun and ice cream. She turns the stereo to world radio, a station Deanna enjoys as well.

Deanna: When you were a kid did you enjoy school?

Kaye: I enjoyed school very much and joined EVERY after school activity I could! I had a lot of friends and just enjoyed being a kid

Deanna: Did you have a dream job as a kid?

Kaye: I wanted to be a magician when I was little. The whole abracadabra pull a rabbit out of a hat and make Elephants disappear. Dom was always happy to help and be my assistant in all my living room performances *laughs*

Deanna: That sounds so awesome! I wanted to be a pirate

Kaye: A pirate! Well me hearty if you're the Captain, can I be your first mate? *Winks*

Deanna: *giggles*

Kaye: Oh my I can't believe I just did that! Ignore me please. That's really cool though, did you get the chance to sail the seven seas?

Reminiscing on being kids, Deanna asks if there's any memory Kaye can remember really well.

Kaye: My favorite memory might be when my grandfather planned a family camping trip to Granite Falls. My uncle made it all about himself of course but it was great to just be part of nature, fishing and hiking and such. We had to do most of it at night but it was still really cool!

Gluttonous Kaye just couldn't leave the date without more ice cream!

Isla is happy to be at the beach. While it's not Sulani it's a scene similar to home that can help her feel at ease. Before getting ice cream Deanna asks her what music she might like. Isla isn't really sure so Deanna puts on Island radio.

Deanna: When you were a kid did you enjoy school?

Isla: Meh, I was neutral about it. It's like work; it's something that I just had to do. But I was never bad in school. I made pretty good grades. I guess the thing about school is that you're inside most of the day sitting down doing nothing, and that was pretty boring and lame to me as a Sulani girl

Deanna: You'd rather be outdoors in the sand? I can definitely relate to wanting classes outside

Deanna: Did you have a dream job as a kid?

Isla: Oh I can't tell you that

Deanna: I'll tell you what I wanted to be

Isla: Fine. I... I wanted to be a professional shell collector

Deanna: That's adorable!

Isla: *smiles* thanks. My dad collects shells and I wanted to be just like him when I grew up

Deanna: I may have wanted to be a pirate

Isla: *giggles* a pirate? That's hilarious. I'd have hired you to track me down the rarest shells, the magic ones

The talking and laughter continues as the pair grow closer.

Isla: One of my earliest memories is finding my first shell on the beach. My older brothers went jet-skiing, but I was too little to go with them, so I stayed on the shore with my parents and my younger brother. While me and my dad were making a sand sculpture, I found a small scallop shell! My dad was so happy for me and ended up placing my shell with his own shell collection. It's definitely a core memory for me

Deanna: That's so sweet! I love him already

When everyone was back at the villa contestants had three hours of skill gaining time. Room doors were locked and autonomy turned off to give everyone a fair go.

Berenice practiced gaming while a calmer Dee was determined to beat some virtual high scores. Isabella also played some sims forever to improve her video gaming. Isla and Nyami both chose to tackle some logic while a happy Kaye decided to work on comedy.

Devin: How are you feeling about your date with Kaye?

Deanna: Pretty good. She's funny and I think we get on well

Devin: And how about Isla

Deanna: *smiles* Yeah I'll admit I'm a bit smitten with her. She knows so much about Sulani

Devin (voiceover): So how are you feeling about Deanna at the moment?

Isla (voiceover): *blushes* Definitely smitten

When skill time was over room doors were unlocked, autonomy was put back to full, and contestants were instructed to eat dinner. Needs decay had been on the whole day. Deanna was not instructed to talk to anyone so interactions happened autonomously, she was also locked out of rooms so she would be available for contestants to interact with.

It appeared that the time gaming had calmed down Dee, who was once again able to see people without wanting to punch them. Deanna made vegetable tempura since Kaye is vegetarian- she's not accidentally eating meat on our watch! Isabella was in a flirty mood but didn't perform any romantic interactions, choosing to be friendly instead.

Then we had a surprise! Deanna was talking to Nyami when she decided to stand up and hold her hands! This is the second physical flirtation Deanna has done autonomously. Could Nyami be a hidden gem despite her early lower ranking? The pair hugged and chatted with Kaye and Isla while everyone else went to bed.

Milgram Kinks & Headcanons (males)

mod's note: my interpretation / headcanons for the milgram boys; what they're like in bed and what I think they're kinks are

content: various kinks + smut. gn for the most part, but I sorta slipped up at john's part (feminine pet name there). mdni

Haruka Sakurai

I know many people hc Haruka as a true bottom, but he just screams switch to me

Of course the poor boy is extremely shy at first, definitely an inexperienced virgin that's completely clueless when you're sexually active for the first time. But once he had some time to explore his & your body, I honestly think he'd make a great boyfriend/sexual partner

Definitely a soft dom with some service tendencies. He's very gentle and deathly afraid of hurting you. But once you give him the okay to go faster & rougher, he cuts all restraints. With some encouragement/experience, he noticeably improves. And if you don't say anything, he can even get carried away with hearing you moan/beg for him

Still very eager to please you when you're topping (which is most of the time, let's be real here). He loves it when you take the lead and there's virtually nothing he won't do to please you. However, he also trusts that he's safe in your hands, so please, don't go as far as to make him feel like you never loved him/is embarrassed to have him as your bf. He might cry, and not out of pleasure

Fuuta Kajiyama

The type of guy to act like a dom, but is really a bottom

Fuuta is relatively shy when it comes to making love for the first time. Out of pride, he insists on being on top, but you can tell the dude is nervous & inexperienced as hell. He's a 5'4 chronically online gamer sitting at his gaming PC 24/7. It's honestly relatively easy to overpower him. If you get frustrated at his awkwardness, you can always just flip him over

He's never really honest with affectionate stuff that comes out of his mouth, but at least his body is honest. Very sensitive and reaction to your touch, he's like putty in your hands. The type to futility muffle his moans of pleasure in the pillows as you give him a hand/blow job.

Oh, but don't you think it's just you being quick to realize what turns Fuuta on. Once Fuuta gets more comfortable with making love, he smirks seeing you melt in his hands. He becomes a bit of a tease, but I also see him as a very protective lover. He would never go as far as to make you cry or not enjoy the sex, but you can tell he definitely enjoys himself hearing you beg a little bit for him

Shidou Kirisaki

Shidou is the type of guy that everyone lust for, and for good reason

The type of man who simultaneously intimidates and attracts the nurses in training & doctors performing their rotations. His calm and collected demeanor comes off as almost stoic and chilling to a complete stranger, but they can't help but be drawn in at his attractive features. And when he reveals a gentle smile and mature personality, it just raises the question of how many surprises does this man have up his sleeve

Behind his kind smile, he's into it all. Rough sex, bdsm, bondage, marking, etc. He adores edging you and hearing you whimper for more as he pulls away from your throbbing core for the nth time, only to pepper your stomach with soft kisses. Of course, whatever his angel is comfortable with

He can definitely let you take the lead, but he usually prefers being the dominant one. And if you give him permission, he can get borderline sadistic with how far he can take it. He would never hurt you in a way you wouldn't want, but he'd be lying if he didn't think you look adorable tied up and struggling to take his whole length

He knows how to make you cum several times a night and memorized your orgasm face even. Perfect for when he wants to edge you, especially if you've been bratty. You can't walk straight afterwards, but at least Shidou is the king of aftercare

Kazui Mukuhara

He wants to be loved and caressed like a cat

He doesn't mind being on bottom or top. He does have a slight preference towards being the submissive one, but can gladly top if his partner wants him to. And, with the right partner, Kazui can definitely have a great sex life between him and his lover

If you don't ask, he's not one to top much. Instead letting you take the lead and be okay with, literally, anything you want. He may even discover some kinks himself. Toys, edging, bondage, gags, maybe even a bit of degradation. Dare I say Kazui Mukhara is a bit on the masochistic side? He fucking loves watching you ride him as he's biting on the gorgeous ball gag you popped in his mouth

On the off chance he's topping (usually because you insisted), you're in for the real treat. Kazui is the strongest out of all the prisoners, courtesy of the arm-wrestling rankings. Foreplay usually lasts a long time with him, it's almost painful. He's not doing it out of sadism though, just that he doesn't want to hurt you. It's not until you're whining for him to penetrate you that he finally enters you. And my god--you can definitely feel him all right, and he is H A R D

Mikoto Kayano

Average sex for an average guy? Nahhhhhhh. Mikoto is a bit of a wild card, tbh. He may not be into hardcore bdsm like the rest of the smoking trio, but his people pleasing tendencies are still apparent. He's open to try anything you suggest & are into. You never really know what kind of mood he's in

Pretty vanilla, tbh. But will gladly let you ride him until both of you are overstimulated. The dude needs a serious stress reliever when he gets home from work, and he's so happy that you're there to help him out. While he enjoys slow and sensual sex more, he's certainly a fan of rough quickies. When he really needs to blow off some steam from work, you can tell from his fast pace that he's taking it out on you

He's a giver through and through. He loves giving you head, but won't ever deny receiving it. Something about you sucking him off, watching your head bob back and forth as he covers his mouth and watches you with intense, slightly nervous eyes is so hot to him. Gets nervous when you swallow him whole, but a small part of him finds it so sexy

He's pretty vocal during sex, but it's mostly his moans and groans, he's quite sensitive. But will try to praise you as much as possible. You're doing so good, you just have to know it

John Kayano

Definitely a sadistic dom, nothing new

Especially if you wanna test him and be bratty, ohhhhhh boy! You're in for a real treat. John is not necessarily a brat tamer at heart, but he can certainly put you in your place if you're pushing his buttons. His favorite thing to do is to collar you and make you cockwarm him

He doesn't really have a limit, it's up to you to tell him about your boundaries and kinks. And once you gave him permission, the dude is certainly going to show you a good time. Degradation, bondage, toys, orgasm denial. When he gets more experience, he discovers he loves being in control

Swears a lot when ploughing into you. His dirty talk is def a mix of degradation and praise, and his moans are more guttural groans than anything. He just can't believe how good you make him feel. If you squint, you can tell that John worships every part of your body. How tight you feel when you squeeze around him, how your fingers claw at his chest, your moans escaping from your lips. Dear god, he can't wait to get his hands on you and treat you like the slutty princess you are

[elvhensinner]

I don't know if you answered something like this before, but what type of porn would each Twice member do?

Good question! So allow me to expound my answers heheheh

Nayeon - loves knowing men jerk off to her so she does all the top viewed kinks. Stepcest, schoolgirl, BBC, group, etc. She the type to roleplay at the start but instantly drops it after a few minutes cause she's too horny to keep up the act 🤣

Jeongie - Solo queen. Has the most number of toys compared to everyone in twice. Her content is geared towards wholesome plots 🥺. Her best performing video is a pov slow titjob virtual sex type with tons of eye contact, licking, and words of affirmation titled "Relieving my big man after his long day at work"

Momo - JAV STAR. Always on the top featured page, front n center. Always a housewife, and always targeted by the typical ntr archetype (father in law, uncle, neighbor, boss, delivery man, etc). Watching her vids always leaves you with these thoughts: tits, moans, and whines.

Sana - Passionate about porn. SHES EVERYWHERE AND DOESNT STICK TO CONCEPTS. Jav, western, meet n fucks, international, fuck a fan, dom, sub, ntr, passionate. The type to have a sfw socmed account cause of how outgoing she is.

Jihyo - Established couple's page. Always the same man. Tons of passionate porn. Cuddlefucks, waking up with sex, slow penetrations with matching giggles filled with love. Her bf handles the account 🤣 You'd kill to be in his position.

Mina - HIGH PRODUCTION. She's no girl, she's no woman, she's a lady. Imagine the productions of those blacked/bleached openings, with the high budget camera angles, beautiful lingerie, and voiceovers. All the works. Consistent quality in every video, from start to finish. Softdom until her partner teases her asshole.

Dahyun - She puts the actress in "porn actress" cause she's the type to really get into the thick of roleplay. Shes like jeongie who loves making solo virtual sex vids. She wants to satisfy a different kink every vid. Appreciates her fans so she tries to reply to comments as much as she can. (Ahck. I cant 🤧)

Chaeyoung - Her page has the most hard/uncommon kinks compared to everyone else. Examples: gloryhole, mouth/Drool, footjob, armpitfuck, extreme leather, musk, watersport, smoking, etc. The video Always ends up in hardcore porn when it's not solo.

Tzuyu - high rate onlyfans with ppv. Captions her vids to satisfy different kinks (stepsister, cheating, babysitter, etc.) as clickbait, but never follows the plot 🙄 It's all just sex with her bf. But she has a high following cause everyone likes her body type.

Bionicle Headcanon Ramblings: Homosexuality, Sex Work, and Skrall and Bone Hunter Reproductive Habits

This is going to be quite NSFW, so I'm putting it under the break. Also TW for heavier topics on the subject.

When the Great Beings organiced the MUians, they also swapped some sexes to even the sexes out for reproduction. Generally, this was only done by converting some males to female- there was no reason to convert any females to males. Because most MUians don't have much concept of sex dimorphism, this caused virtually no mental distress or gender dysphoria. As Chirox put it: "I was essence in armour before. Now I have organs, and one of them is a uterus. What meant 'male' for Makuta then, I was. What means 'female' for Organics, I am."

Matoran:

Homosexuality

Matoran have basically no concept of homophobia. They have no reason to. They also have gay marriage, likewise because they see no reason not to, so it was default when they discovered marriage. In most elements, about 30-40% are at least Bisexual, with that up to around 50-60% for Le-Matoran and around 20% for female elements like Ga, Ce, and Vo.

Sex Work

Matoran also have very little concept of slut-shaming or the like, with the only real exception being shaming of irresponsible mating habits (although the Matoran fertility rate is incredibly low, so this is hard to catch, and they don't have many STDs yet), since their children are communally raised, so having too many is considered putting too much work on your village. They are not all that much of a social sex species, so they are way less horny than humans.

Prostitution is virtually their only form of sex work, since they don't have enough concept of shame around sex to have a reason to make occupations built on teasing it/skirting the line, such as stripping or pornography. (They do have pornography, but it's seen as a standard form of artwork, and isn't more or less likely than other forms). They also have different versions of prostitutes, such as escorts, doms, brothel workers, etc.

Extreme temperatures negatively affect a Matoran's ability to feel aroused, even if that Matoran is resistant to that type of temperature. Because of this, Ko and Ta villages have very few sex workers.

Le villages also have very few sex workers, because they just have way more free sex. There is no reason to make an occupation out of something you can much more easily get from asking your friend for a favour.

Because no female Matoran were converted male and the second generation just reached adulthood, nearly every older adult male Matoran living in a Ga village is likely a sex worker. Other males may pass through to perform tasks or visit friends, but if he settles down, it's almost guaranteed he is doing so to perform sex work.

There is one element of Matoran known for their intense passion in their work. If something isn't their work, they are practically blind to it, but if it is related to their work, they pride themselves in knowing everything about it. Because of this, Onu-Matoran sex workers take their jobs very seriously and with intense dedication. Matoran have no internet, but an Onu-Matoran sex worker knows more about creative ways to do the deed than the average E621 user. Currently, the only named character in my headcanon who is a confirmed sex worker is Zemya. She is a mistress to both Onua and Nuparu, and neither has any clue the other visits her. She is so dedicated to her clients, that she has also mothered Onua's daughter and Nuparu's unborn child, and again, neither Toa has any clue their children are half-siblings, and no other Matoran knows the fatherhood of her kids.

Toa

Homosexuality

Toa's concept of homosexuality is the same as Matoran's. They find intra-group pairings to be completely acceptable, and since a Toa child is automatically considered a member of his mother's Toa group, they prefer intra-group pairings or grouped-Toa and ungrouped-Toa pairings over inter-group pairings for convenience of not having to separate the child from his father.

Sex Work

"Toa" itself is an occupation, so any side occupation is considered strange for a Toa. They can have hobbies, but are expected not to have other jobs. Because of this, you will not find a Toa sex-worker. Toa do frequent Matoran sex-workers, and prefer them over casual sex with Matoran, since they recognize their power dynamic over Matoran. Nuparu and Onua prefer Zemya specifically because as an Onu-Matoran, she takes her job seriously and has mastered separating her personal feelings for the Toa from her job.

Skakdi (Urban)

Homosexuality

Urban Skakdi will take any excuse to mob another Skakdi and beat him to death, and any "difference" in behaviour is enough excuse. Avak met his second boyfriend while watching the lynching of his first boyfriend.

Sex Work

Urban Skakdi are Patriarchal and believe in male ownership over females. They used numbers to beat the females into submission and kill any female who shows dominance or resistance to a male, so they have very little sex work, since a male can just buy or kidnap a wife, and there are no laws saying he must take care of her.

There are Skakdi sex workers, and they are considered poorly. Thok's mother is one. A Skakdi without a father is also basically considered garbage, so this negatively affected Thok's life.

Skakdi (Rural)

Homosexuality

Rural Skakdi care absolutely nothing about homophobia, since they generally don't care about the behaviour of other Skakdi at all, granted the other Skakdi isn't affecting the one. If Rurals spend a lot of time around Urbans, like Reidak did, then they may pick up on the homophobia.

Sex Work

Rural Skakdi don't have occupations. Older males are solitary, and Skakdi packs consist of a female and her children. They have no currency and generally don't trade resources. They share resources only with family members.

Makuta

Homosexuality

Makuta don't generally pair bond unless they are raising kids, so they have no concept of homosexual relationships. Homosexual behaviour is considered just a method of release, so they think nothing of it, and no Makuta would notice if a particular Makuta was exclusively homosexual.

Sex Work

Makuta don't really have occupations in that sense. They don't have currency or trade, and are generally just assigned tasks by their leader solely to keep them stimulated. There is no requirement for them to do the work, but they do it anyway because they require high levels of stimulation. So for them, a Sex Worker would just be a Makuta who prefers bottoming and happens to be frequently available for other Makuta who need release. Currently, Chirox fills this role, and Antroz is considering assigning Spiriah to do it as well, since he can't find anything else for Spiriah to do, and Chirox is busy with her lab work and her baby. Spiriah has not yet received this assignment, so he has not yet considered it.

Vortixx

Homosexuality

Vortixx rates of homosexuality and bisexuality are around 20-30%, but around 60% of female Vortixx are in lesbian marriages. Lesbian behaviour is highly praised, and lesbian art is highly respectable. Lesbian relationships are presented as the default in media. The only thing Vortixx consider more beautiful than a lesbian relationship is one where a husband is perfectly dedicated and submissive to his wife.

Gay male Vortixx are heavily ostracized, as they are considered "Trying to have a life with no women in it". It is common for gay male Vortixx to marry female friends of theirs. When this occurs, anything he does with his boyfriend is immediately brushed off as "That male must just be practicing to better please his wife", and is immediately accepted. If the boyfriend is not an Educator (see the next section), he is generally presumed to be the wife's boyfriend.

Sex Work

Not only are sex workers prominent in Vortixx culture, but so are a sort of "Geisha"- both the prostitute variety and non-prostitute variety. Since the leave from the disgusting Xia in the Mata Nui to the new Xia of Spherus Magna ("Xia" is their word for "home", so the biggest homeland of Vortixx is always called "Xia"), Vortixx have regained their love for beauty and art.

Female Geisha and prostitutes are generally treated with more respect than male Geisha and prostitutes, and are much more likely to have chosen either occupation than to be forced. Female Geisha are much less likely to be expected to give sex than male Geisha. High-Class Vortixx will also keep (mostly male) concubines

Gay males who can't find a female friend to marry often pose as "Educators", which is a male Sex Worker a woman hires to teach her husband how to be a better lover. If the husband doesn't consent to the idea, neither he or the Educator is allowed to back out unless they make a strong enough excuse to convince the wife. If the Educator backs out too often, the Vortixx will grow suspicious that he doesn't take the job seriously and is actually a *gasp* gay male. Unmarried male Vortixx are given the worst, most dangerous jobs, but because male homosexuality is so frowned upon, female Vortixx generally presume that Educators are just heterosexual males willing to horribly demean themselves out of dedication to making sure wives are getting more satisfaction from their husbands, so the Educator job is considered a reasonable excuse to get him out of that work and is treated with respect. Of note, virtually no Educators are heterosexual, and it's mostly just a con the gay men use to stay out of trouble.

Glatorian

Homosexuality

Homosexuality is quite common among Glatorian, since heterosexual sex is banned. Agori want to control Glatorian reproduction, so they strictly control their reproduction, and even make sure female Glatorian in heat are never alone with male Glatorian, or often bar her from leaving her village. Female Glatorian's health and heat cycles are closely monitored by their villages, and for a female Glatorian to obscure the fact that she is in heat is a punishable offense. Glatorian generally see homosexuality or sex with Agori as a common way of release, regardless of that individual Glatorian's sexuality.

Sex Work

There are no Glatorian Sex workers, since their sex lives are so strictly controlled. A Glatorian who wants release can hire an Agori or just ask a favour of a same-sex Glatorian friend.

Agori

Homosexuality

Agori are mildly homophobic: homosexuality is considered something only bestial things do, so being gay is considered bizarre. It doesn't help that Skrall, Zesk, and Vorox are all incredibly gay (with Vorox doing it out of dominance and Zesk being the Bonobos of Spherus Magna). Agori also have no concept of gay marriage, and found it very bizarre that when they explained marriage to Matoran, the Matoran immediately invented gay marriage.

Agori populations are low, so tribe leaders discourage homosexuality to encourage more childbirths. Gay Agori aren't exiled from villages or harmed or anything of the sort, nor are they prevented from dating same-sex Agori, but their relationships aren't taken seriously.

Sex Work

Agori have lower sex-drives than humans, and they have a mild sense of shame around sex for two reasons: The extreme weather of the desert and their natural lack of body armour means they must be clothed in public for safety, and children are generally raised by the parents. Both of these mean sex or nudity outside of marriage is frowned upon. Agori do have sex workers of many types, including pornographers, strippers, prostitutes, etc, and despite being shamed, none are illegal. The only version of Agori sex work that isn't considered demeaning are prostitutes who specialise in tending to the Glatorian, as this is considered an effective method to keep Glatorian from breeding without permission (Agori and Glatorian cannot interbreed). These Agori are treated with respect. This is so normalized, and female Glatorian heat cycles are monitored so closely, that when a female is in heat, her village elder may hire a male Agori prostitute- or even a regular male to temporarily serve as a prostitute- to just hang out naked in her house and refuse to leave, to encourage her to release her urges.

Skrall

Homosexuality

Every Skrall has homosexual behaviours, although most are not explicitly homosexual. The exception are Leader-Class whose use female concubines/slaves, and are the only Skrall permitted to use slaves at all in that fashion. It is a punishable offense for any lower class male to have sex with a prisoner or slave, although some males may do so when attacking the prisoner, before bringing the prisoner back to the base. However, if the Leader finds out, that male's entire hunting party may be punished- the specific male for the action, the party for not stopping him. Because of this, a male who does this may kill the female rather than bring her back as a prisoner, although bringing back a caravan with no or few living prisoners will arouse the Leader's suspicions, so Skrall are much less likely to target Agori caravans that have no or few males. The Agori have not yet realised this pattern.

Skrall's general perspective of sex with other Skrall is "If he's weaker than you, he's the bottom, and he doesn't get a say in the matter. If he can fight you off, you don't get to use him." They have no sense of homophobia except to see heterosexuality as something one has to earn (since it is only available to Leader class with female slaves, or during the Day of Mating.)

Sisters of the Scrall also primarily stick to homosexual relationships, and although very few are actually homosexual, almost all Sisters are monogamously paired.

During the Day of Mating, the Sisters meet with the males, and this is the only time they show any cordiality to the males. The females arrive in a caravan, deposit all recently-weaned boy children they have, and then are permitted to wander the Skrall base. The Skrall do not directly approach or initiate interaction with the Sisters, instead turning to beat each other senseless. The Sisters wordlessly walk though the base and observe the combat, judging the males. The Sisters judge based on fighting skill, honour, intelligence, and stamina, and judge against brutality. This means they don't always pick the winner, which the male Skrall find confusing. After all this time, the male Skrall still don't quite understand what the Sisters are judging, and think that if a Sister chooses someone who lost in combat, she was doing so to spite or insult the winner. In this situation, the winner may maul the loser after the mating (the Sister will protect her mate with her psychic powers until the mating is finished). The Sisters find this jealousy ridiculous, but then they generally find everything about the Skrall ridiculous. Sisters may also select males who are not participating in combat. This male may also be mauled if he is caught mating but was not seen fighting. Basically, the dominant males decide what they think the female is judging (Power and Dominance), and any male who did not show this before mating will be considered assisting the Sister in spiting the proper males, and will be mauled, even though really the Sister is either judging based on her preferences, or just selecting randomly and only pretending to care about the selection. Because of this, male losers or non-combative males will often flee from the Sister who selected him and refuse to mate, which spares him the mauling.

A Sister will mate with dozens of males on the Day of Mating, and males will mate with as many females as they are permitted. Leader Class males are treated as equals to other Skrall by the Sisters, which seriously pisses the Leader Class males off, but there isn't much they can do about it. Other Skrall will rebel against and group-maul any male, including a Leader Class, who attempts to harm or force himself on a Sister (as they believe the Sisters will curse and destroy their tribe if disrespected).

Skrall and Sisters barely make eye contact or speak to each other during the Day of Mating. Neither party knows or cares the identity of their partner, and Skrall have no clue which kids are theirs. Sisters don't bother growing attached to their male children, since they will be surrendered to the males immediately upon weaning, but they lovingly dote on their girls.

Sex Work

There is no occupation of sex work among Skrall, since bigger males just take sex from smaller males, and Sisters freely give to other Sisters if requested.

Bone Hunters

Homosexuality

Of all of the Bara Magnan natives, Bone Hunters are the most accepting of pretty much anything. They respect their women, they respect gays, and even have gay marriage. As long as you pull your weight, they could not care less how you spend your free time or with whom you share your bed. They are also rather family-oriented, and it is not uncommon for gay Bone Hunters to assist in caring for, or even adopting their nieces and nephews if the child's parent cannot.

Sex Work

Sex Workers are not common among Bone Hunters, but are neither illegal, nor shamed. Most Bone Hunters don't have "occupations", but may trade skills, and likewise a Bone Hunter may trade a resource to another for sex, but the performer is not considered a "Sex worker" for this. Bone Hunters also do not force Agori or Glatorian prisoners to perform sex work, as prisoners are often fed to the Rock Steeds to the point that Rock Steeds have grown a taste for Agori, and getting the prisoner's bodily fluids on your genitals may result in something akin to a Velociraptor attempting to perform a circumcision.

You haven’t seen such behaviour from the audience for a long time: Some new kids on stage, and in front of it, restore our faith in a better tomorrow

When was the last time you were at a concert where the audience was screaming out of joy and ecstasy so loudly, you could barely hear the band?

These last few days we were at Dom Omladine, and we saw a different, positive and young audience at a concert of the band Joker Out.

The Slovenian band has been growing and becoming popular for years already, both in our country and the whole region, as well as Europe. Their song ‘Carpe Diem’ has more than 15 million streams on Spotify and found itself on the Top 10 Spotify Global Viral Chart.

Due to their success, the band has had an amazing European tour, sold out concerts, a collaboration with Elvis Costello, as well as a Golden Record in Finland, with over 2 million streams for ‘Carpe Diem’.

Their virtual success, the large numbers, all of that is nice, but what’s more important is the relationship the band has with their audience and the image you witness at their gigs. Even though it’s a club gig, with a limited number of people in the audience, the line in front of Dom Omladine formed as early as 2 hours before the gig.

The kids, i.e. girls wanted to be as close as possible to the front and near their favourite band. Both of the concerts, on the 2nd and 3rd of November, were sold out long before the actual event. And when the gig starts, you’re amazed by the decibel level that the audience screams out.

The opening song of the concert, ‘Sunny Side of London’, could barely be heard in the last rows because of the amount of screaming in the first few rows. I bet it was the same in Liverpool in the 60s when the Beatles performed.

The band introduced themselves as ‘five Slovenians who came to sing’ and then led us through their whole repertoire. During the whole time, the intensity of burning, singing and jumping hadn’t stopped, on the contrary, it grew to a boiling point during their biggest hits such as the already mentioned ‘Carpe Diem’ or ‘Demoni’, a song which the band performs in Serbian.

Even though it might seem all of the attention is turned to the singer Bojan, eventually you realise that each of the members has their own group of fans, and that they all get gifts from the audience, flowers, teddy bears, letters and sometimes bras too, from the somewhat older passionate female fans.

The guys managed to turn the boy band hysteria to the indie rock sound, which your younger family members, neighbours or your friend’s kids listen to. If you’re not in contact with younger people or kids, the phenomenon of Joker Out could easily pass over you, because you simply don’t follow or enjoy the channels where they’re growing more popular each day.

However, if and when you get to them, your jaw will drop to the floor, both from the amount of passionate fans and their honest, good pop rock music that we haven’t heard for a long, long time, which these talented guys deliver at their gigs.

Little post I wrote in my XKit Rewritten notes. I don't expect this to be that interesting to anyone, but I take some pride in trying to explain the details of things like this.

An unfortunate small performance regression:

Some of the experimental virtual scroller code makes use of requestAnimationFrame. This is cool! Unfortunately for us, what this means is that Redpop is doing DOM mutations inside an rAF callback.

Recall that our pageModifications engine, as per #407 (and its predecessor #275):

will compile an array of every mutation between frames, and queue onBeforeRepaint() for before the next frame using Window.requestAnimationFrame()

There is a subtle condition here: requestAnimationFrame will queue its callback to run right before the next frame is rendered... unless you're already in the rAF callback "right before" said frame, at which point it will queue its callback for right before the one after that. This, of course, makes sense: a user repeatedly calling rAF is trying to step through each frame in order to, you know, run an animation.

This means, though, that in the case where the DOM mutations we're trying to react to are called using rAF, and are thus in an rAF callback, we have no way* of scheduling pageModifications after all Redpop mutations but before the DOM gets painted, rendered, etc like we used to. If we use rAF, our modifications will occur one frame later, so the user will see one frame of unmodified content before the modified view (causing a double reflow, etc, as we used to always have before 454b268 and #416 and stuff). If we don't use rAF, we basically have to just handle the mutations "now,"* which would mean running all of the pageModifications callbacks multiple times.

Having a choice between a few milliseconds of wasteful javascript and a frame of UI flicker isn't the worst thing in the world—it's really only noticeable in certain circumstances, like when using Scroll to Bottom—but it is too bad to lose the "best of both worlds" option for such a subtle reason.

*I have a trick involving repeatedly queueing a new microtask; it doesn't really help here.

React JS

Component-Based Architecture:

React applications are built using components, which are reusable, self-contained pieces of the UI. Components can be nested, managed, and handled independently, leading to better maintainability and scalability.

JSX (JavaScript XML):

React uses JSX, a syntax extension that allows HTML to be written within JavaScript. This makes the code more readable and easier to write.

Virtual DOM:

React maintains a virtual DOM, an in-memory representation of the actual DOM. When the state of an object changes, React updates the virtual DOM and efficiently determines the minimal set of changes needed to update the real DOM, leading to performance improvements.

One-Way Data Binding:

Data flows in one direction, from parent to child components, which makes the data flow and logic easier to understand and debug.

State Management:

React components can maintain internal state, making it easy to build dynamic and interactive UIs. For more complex state management, libraries like Redux or Context API can be used.

Advantages of Using React

Performance:

Due to the virtual DOM, React minimizes direct manipulation of the DOM, resulting in better performance for dynamic applications.

Reusable Components:

Components can be reused across different parts of an application, reducing the amount of code and enhancing consistency.

Strong Community and Ecosystem:

A large community and a rich ecosystem of tools and libraries support React, making it easier to find solutions, get support, and integrate with other technologies.

SEO Friendly:

React can be rendered on the server using Node.js, making web pages more SEO-friendly compared to traditional client-side rendering.

Getting Started with React

To start building applications with React, you need to have Node.js and npm (Node Package Manager) installed. Here’s a basic setup to create a new React application:

Install Node.js and npm:

Download and install from Node.js website.

Create a New React Application:

You can use Create React App, an officially supported way to create single-page React applications with no configuration required:

npx create-react-app my-app cd my-app npm start

import React from 'react';

function Welcome(props) { return

Hello, {props.name}

; }

export default Welcome;

Introduction to React JS 

React is like the carpenter’s toolbox for building web interfaces. Created by the folks at Facebook, it’s a set of tools that makes crafting interactive and dynamic websites a whole lot easier. Imagine it as a set of magic building blocks that help developers create sleek, responsive, and engaging front-end applications. Since its debut in 2013, React has become a favorite among web developers, kind of like the go-to tool when you want to make your website not just look good but also feel lively and interactive. It’s a bit like the secret sauce behind many of the awesome websites you use every day.

Features of React JS

Declarative Syntax: React uses a declarative syntax, allowing developers to describe the desired outcome, and React takes care of the underlying logic to achieve that outcome. This makes the code more predictable and easier to understand.

2. Component-Based Architecture: React follows a component-based architecture where the UI is broken down into reusable components. Each component manages its own state and can be composed to build complex user interfaces.

3. Virtual DOM: React uses a virtual DOM to improve performance. Instead of directly manipulating the actual DOM, React creates a virtual representation of it in memory and updates only the parts of the actual DOM that have changed. This minimizes the number of DOM manipulations, resulting in faster updates.

4. JSX (JavaScript XML): React uses JSX, a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows you to write HTML elements and components in a syntax similar to XML or HTML. JSX makes the code more readable and helps with the integration of UI components.

Components in React

In React, think of components as building blocks for your user interface — they’re like Lego pieces that you can assemble to create your application. These components are self-contained and can be reused, making it easier to manage and organize your user interface. It’s as if you’re constructing your application with Lego bricks, where each brick represents a specific part of your user interface.

This modular approach simplifies the development process and encourages a more flexible and maintainable code structure.

Dumb components: Think of these components as the friendly faces you see in a store’s display window. They’re there to catch your eye and make everything look inviting. These components are all about the visual appeal, like the welcoming decor of a shop, without getting into the technical details or behind-the-scenes work.

2. Smart components:Think of these components as the wise decision-makers. They not only handle the important business details but also decide when and how things should appear on the screen. It’s like having an event planner for your app — they manage the behind-the-scenes work and ensure everything shows up at just the right time and in the best way possible.

NOTE 🤓:These components can come to life either as classes or functions. They’re adaptable, like a versatile tool that can be crafted in different ways based on your needs.

State of a component

In the world of React, think of the state as a component’s personal notebook — it’s where the component keeps track of information that can change over time. This information might shift based on how users interact with the component or how the outside world reacts to it. Whether the component is a classic novel (a class) or a snappy note (a function), it handles its state in its own unique way. What’s really neat is that when this internal state undergoes a change, it’s like the component automatically freshens up, updating its look without any fuss — kind of like a quick, seamless makeover happening in the background.

Properties of a component

In React, components communicate with each other through a feature called “Props.” It’s like sharing notes or gifts between them, but here’s the catch: the communication is a one-way street, flowing strictly from a parent component to its child. Imagine it as a parent passing a sealed letter to their child. What’s interesting is that these messages, or props, are unchangeable once delivered. It’s akin to sending a secure package — the information remains intact, ensuring a clear and organized flow of data between React components.

Life cycle of a component

Components in React have a lifecycle, and it’s like understanding the natural flow of a component’s journey. This lifecycle serves as our guide, allowing us to make smart decisions at different points in the component’s existence. It’s a bit like knowing when to take specific actions, such as making an HTTP request or tidying up the user interface.

componentDidMount: Think of this as the behind-the-scenes moment when the component takes its place on the UI stage for the first time.

componentDidUpdate:Picture this as the component’s way of adapting and evolving — a sort of behind-the-scenes dance that happens when the component experiences a change in its mood or receives something new to work with.

componentWillUnmount: Function executed when the component is unmounted from the UI.

React Hooks are a set of functions that were introduced in React 16.8 to enable the use of state and other React features in functional components. Before the introduction of hooks, state and lifecycle methods were primarily associated with class components. Hooks allow functional components to have state, lifecycle features, and more, making them a powerful and concise alternative to class components.

The most commonly used React Hooks include:

use State: Enables functional components to manage state.

2. use Effect: Provides a way to perform side effects in functional components, similar to component DidMount and component DidUpdate in class components.

3. use Context: Allows functional components to subscribe to React context without introducing a nested component.

4. use Reducer: An alternative to use State for managing more complex state logic in functional components.

5. use Callback and use Memo: Optimize performance by memoizing functions and values to prevent unnecessary re-renders.

Master React: A Complete React Tutorial for Beginners

In the ever-evolving landscape of web development, React has emerged as one of the most powerful and popular JavaScript libraries for building user interfaces. Developed and maintained by Facebook, React allows developers to create dynamic, high-performance web applications with ease. If you’re a beginner looking to dive into the world of React, this comprehensive tutorial, "Master React: A Complete React Tutorial for Beginners," will guide you through the essential concepts, tools, and techniques needed to become proficient in React development.

What is React?

React is a declarative, component-based library that enables developers to build reusable UI components. Its primary goal is to make the process of creating interactive user interfaces more efficient and manageable. Unlike traditional web development approaches that manipulate the Document Object Model (DOM) directly, React uses a virtual DOM to optimize rendering performance. This means that React only updates the parts of the UI that have changed, resulting in faster and more responsive applications.

Why Learn React?

Learning React is a valuable investment for any aspiring web developer. Here are a few reasons why you should consider mastering React:

Popularity and Demand: React is widely used by companies of all sizes, from startups to tech giants like Facebook, Instagram, and Airbnb. Proficiency in React can significantly enhance your job prospects and career opportunities. Component-Based Architecture: React’s component-based structure promotes reusability and modularity, making it easier to manage and scale applications. This approach allows developers to break down complex UIs into smaller, manageable pieces. Rich Ecosystem: React has a vast ecosystem of libraries and tools that complement its functionality. From state management solutions like Redux to routing libraries like React Router, the React ecosystem provides everything you need to build robust applications. Strong Community Support: With a large and active community, finding resources, tutorials, and support for React development is easier than ever. Whether you’re facing a coding challenge or looking for best practices, the community is there to help.

Setting Up Your React Environment

Before diving into coding, you need to set up your development environment. The easiest way to get started with React is by using the Create React App (CRA) tool, which sets up a new React project with a single command. To create a new React application, follow these steps:

Install Node.js: Ensure you have Node.js installed on your machine. You can download it from the official website.

Create a New React App: Open your terminal and run the following command:

npx create-react-app my-first-react-app cd my-first-react-app npm start

This command creates a new directory called my-first-react-app and starts a development server that you can access at http://localhost:3000.

Understanding React Components

At the heart of React are components. A component is a self-contained piece of UI that can be reused throughout your application. There are two main types of components in React:

Functional Components: These are JavaScript functions that return JSX (JavaScript XML), which looks similar to HTML. Functional components are simpler and easier to read, making them the preferred choice for most developers. Example of a functional component:

function Welcome(props) { return <h1>Hello, {props.name}!</h1>; }

Class Components: These are ES6 classes that extend the React.Component class. Class components can hold state and lifecycle methods, but with the introduction of hooks, functional components are now more commonly used. Example of a class component:

class Welcome extends React.Component { render() { return <h1>Hello, {this.props.name}!</h1>; } }

JSX: The Syntax of React

JSX is a syntax extension for JavaScript that allows you to write HTML-like code within your JavaScript files. It makes it easier to visualize the structure of your UI. JSX expressions can include JavaScript expressions wrapped in curly braces {}.

Example of JSX:const element = <h1>Hello, world!</h1>;

State and Props: Managing Data in React

In React, data flows in one direction, from parent components to child components. This is achieved through props (short for properties) and state.

Props: Props are read-only attributes passed from a parent component to a child component. They allow you to customize components and make them reusable. Example of using props:

function Greeting(props) { return <h1>Welcome, {props.name}!</h1>; }

State: State is a built-in object that allows components to manage their own data. Unlike props, state is mutable and can be updated using the setState method in class components or the useState hook in functional components. Example of using state with hooks:

import React, { useState } from 'react'; function Counter() { const [count, setCount] = useState(0); return ( <div> <p>You clicked {count} times</p> <button onClick={() => setCount(count + 1)}>Click me</button> </div> ); }

Lifecycle Methods and Hooks

In class components, React provides lifecycle methods that allow you to run code at specific points in a component's life, such as when it mounts or unmounts. Common lifecycle methods include componentDidMount, componentDidUpdate, and componentWillUnmount.

With the introduction of hooks in React 16.8, functional components can now manage side effects and lifecycle events using the useEffect hook. This allows for cleaner and more concise code.

Example of using useEffect:import React, { useState, useEffect } from 'react'; function DataFetcher() { const [data, setData] = useState(null); useEffect(() => { fetch('https://api.example.com/data') .then(response => response.json()) .then(data => setData(data)); }, []); // Empty array means this runs once on mount return <div>{data ? JSON.stringify(data) : 'Loading...'}</div>; }

Routing with React Router

For building single-page applications (SPAs), React Router is an essential library that enables navigation between different components without refreshing the page. It allows you to define routes and render components based on the current URL.

Example of setting up React Router:import { BrowserRouter as Router, Route, Switch } from 'react-router-dom'; function App() { return ( <Router> <Switch> <Route path="/about" component={About} /> <Route path="/" component={Home} /> </Switch> </Router> ); }

State Management with Context and Redux

As your application grows, managing state across multiple components can become challenging. React Context provides a way to share data globally without prop drilling, while Redux is a popular state management library that offers a centralized store and predictable state updates.

Best Practices for React Development

To ensure your React applications are maintainable and efficient, consider the following best practices:

Keep Components Small and Focused: Each component should have a single responsibility, making it easier to understand and test.

Use Functional Components and Hooks: Prefer functional components and hooks over class components for cleaner and more concise code.

Leverage PropTypes or TypeScript: Use PropTypes for type checking or consider using TypeScript for static type checking to catch errors early.

Optimize Performance: Use React. Memo to prevent unnecessary re-renders and implement lazy loading for components to improve performance. Maintain a Modular Folder Structure: Organize your project files in a way that promotes modularity and ease of navigation.

Building Real-World Projects

The best way to solidify your React skills is by building real-world projects. Start with simple applications like a to-do list or a weather app, and gradually move on to more complex projects like an e-commerce site or a social media platform. This hands-on experience will help you apply what you’ve learned and prepare you for real-world development challenges.
