Pretend you’re writing a page in your diary 10 years from now
20 September 2031
Dear Diary,
Hi. It’s been a long time since I’ve done this so bear with me. It’s not every day I decide that writing memories and feelings down in a notebook that anyone can read would be worth it.
But anyway. I’m still here, aren’t I?
Wow. I’m still talking like Teen Me. Somethings never change, do they?
Nah. But going back to the ‘recording my feelings and emotions and days in a notebook’ part of the evening…
Huh. Maybe I should write an intro. You know. Since the person reading this (and is precariously close to their impending death) should get to know me first and then get to be my therapist. In that order.
Hi. My name’s [M/N], but I go by Kitai now, the name I chose for myself back when I was fourteen. I’m a graphic designer working at a corporate and so far, life’s going pretty great. I have a beautiful girlfriend, have a spacious office of my own, moved out to live by myself, and work into the early hours of the morning (which Lili hates; she always says I wear myself out too much and if I didn’t watch it, I might be gravely ill, but she’s one to talk, that perfectionist hard worker *affectionately*). I also have many projects lined up, like working on the graphics of my upcoming web series that everyone’s telling me they’re looking forward to, new commissions for some digital art, and lots to write. Not to mention the shitty client I met today just… rejected my work. Literally threw my tablet at me.
What the heck?
The haughty look on her face as she told me my design was nowhere close to what she wanted at all and was in itself very bad, had me seeing red. I literally had to ball my fists and sit on them to try to quash the feeling of murdering her with bare hands right there. Ugh. To think I spent 6 whole hours getting it perfect, just for her to throw it in my face. Pun intended.
Not my fault she gave me such vague details about what she wanted. Told her exactly that and she looked like she was going to throttle me.
Then proceeded to tell me about how I was just slacking off and not putting any real work into it, and that it showed in my work.
Really?
By the end of that speech, I was practically vibrating in my seat. But when I put on a blank and bored expression, I think it pissed her off even more, thinking that maybe I didn’t care. But as she started again, I interrupted her, putting into polite words a piece of my mind and turned on my charming mode so that by the end of it, my tone said, “Hey. It’s alright. Please understand this and we can move on,” which I usually used while sweet-talking my boss. It worked! She looked a little less angry-frazzled and a little calmer and ready to explain what she wanted. Then it went smoothly for the most part. Phew!
I guess Lili was right. My charm and seeming sense of compassion did work wonders on people. Hah. I then asked her jokingly if that was what won her over. She swatted me away, smiling.
My girlfriend’s just amazing, isn’t she?
But that was already pretty obvious. Moving on (otherwise, we’d be stuck in a never-ending episode of ‘How Amazing Lili Is And How I Like To Boast Of It 24/7’ and I think that would defeat the point. So! Moving on…
I released the trailer for ‘Love Me Never’ at midnight last night!
...Technically it’s today morning but you get it.
You won’t believe how crazy everyone’s going in the comments! *squeals* I didn’t check until 5 minutes ago, and now I’m dying of happiness because everyone’s so excited about it and I love it because it’s my work they’re excited for, but also really nervous because I didn’t want to let them down.
I hope I don’t. I’ve worked too hard on it.
It’s also one of my dreams yet unfulfilled. But the moment Tuesday drops around… Darn. I can’t wait! *squeals again and does a tap dance around the room*
[Lili’s voice: Okay Sunny Bunny! Calm down! The glass is gonna break if you keep screeching like that!]
[*Cue me throwing a slipper at her*]
[Lili: *Dodges it and laughs* But in all seriousness, I really am happy for you love. You’ve worked so hard on it. You deserve all the praise, so stop making that nervous face. It’s going to be alright, you hear me? They’re going to love it.]
[*Cue certain noises that ought to be edited out XD*]
[*Insert Squidward’s voice* “A few moments later.”]
Oops, I need to go work! Boss is calling! Bye-bye~ Hopefully I’ll start writing more. Ja ne!
Loved writing this with a deadline btw. Hope it was to your liking!

“The Poppy War”: 5/5
“The Dragon Republic”: 4/5
“The Burning God”: 3/5
Spoiler thoughts for the entire trilogy:
I must admit I am a bit disappointed. I loved the first book so much! Then the second one had some boring moments, but it also had 2 of my favorite scenes and the ending made me feel as angry as I don’t ever remember feeling because of a book. The third one just made me feel bored for the most part...
I feel like there were wasted opportunities about many things, but especially with the trifecta. The characters weren’t used to their full potential and that is a shame because I was initially so invested in them and by the end my reaction to most of their ends was “that’s it?”
I couldn’t even be as emotionally invested in the ending scene with Rin and Kitay because I think the entire thing was so stupid. So, there really was no other way? They couldn’t rebuilt without help? Why didn’t they think this through before starting another war then? There were a lot of things that I couldn’t excuse anymore because of madness or stupidity. It does give a dark ending, but I didn’t feel like it was well earned. One other example of these characters have no brain is that they wanted to free Riga knowing fully well what they were getting into. That plot point turned out well for them because of luck but why was this needed? It went nowhere and I am very upset about it.
To stab me a little more on the back, the only character left alive, besides Chaghan, was the one I wanted to see dead! I feel like the entire time the author was trying to make me sympathize with Nezha, but guess what? I didn’t. If anything him being left alive by the end of it all even with all the pain and burden just pisses me off more!!! There is always Chaghan. Think of Chaghan. I am also sad that he didn’t have a bigger role and I still don’t know why he didn’t feel Altan die when he felt the Trifecta. Probably he was just in denial, but I find it hilarious to think that Altan is alive after all and just chilling by himself ahah
Overall, I wish there were more investment put on the characters. I think it was done better in the first book, but that might be because I was still getting to know Rin and saw her change. She was also the sole focus in the first book and then the narrative tried to give more attention to other characters too and I feel like there is when it started to fail in the characterization aspect. That is yet another complain for book 3. Rin didn’t develop at all. She remained pretty much the same until near the end. Then she changed a bit, but that was because after she gave total control to the Phoenix she started to get angrier and more paranoid.
Anyways, if you read the entire trilogy, I would like to know your thoughts.

The Poppy War: thoughts
Context: I saw this book heavily recommended on tumblr and even though I didn't research it (to avoid spoilers), it looked like something for me. I also realized recently that I haven't read a modern high fantasy in a while, so when my friend told me "hey, I've read this book and need someone to rant about it with", I was like "sure can I borrow it?". It is worth noting that my friend's tone was rather disapproving and we mostly share our taste in books, but still, I approached The Poppy War with a very favourable mindset.
Which didn't last very long.
Fortunately, after some time the book got better, so: disapproval first, praise later.
- the first part, aka Rin's time in academia, was so predictable and cliche I went through it purely out of malice (to be able to roast it). It was fitting every cliche you can find in a books set at school and bore me to death.
- Jiang: aaaa. This is coming from my personal experiences, but I've had a hard time with my "cool but weird" teacher lately and I just can't get past this trope without being angry at writers who do not acknowledge how toxic it usually is. (tho in Jiang's case it was more or less ok) Also the reveal of his backstory was very predictable.
- Rin: i couldn't bear how "edgy" she was. I started to like her when the actual war begun and she turned from "i'm not like others lol" to "i'm so scared, i want to be safe. also what is sleep". (also because she has been a chaotic mess the whole time and the war actually made it more believable). I had issues with her character though - for example she comes to the academia when she's like 15/16 and even though a lot happens to her over the course of the action, i had a feeling she hasn't actually matured. Did she develop? In terms of abilities, knowledge, rage etc - yes. But I didn't think she was more mature at the end and it really bothered me (as i was still picturing as a 15-year-old and had to constantly remind myself that she's an adult now).
- self-harm: uuh handled in a weird way? It's obvious that Rin's self-harming to cope with stress in academia is not healthy and the context shows that the heroine is under immense pressure which has a bad effect on her, but the narrative seems to present self-harm as a necessity to manage life and never really condemns it - not only explicitly, but any negative consequences of it are also absent.
- this book (and Grishaverse) would be more enjoyable if I hadn't taken that basic Russian course. I cringed every time I read Kitay's name (and it appears quite often...). Literally why name your character China? It's such a bad idea...
- I don't know if the original edition has trigger warnings, but oh boy, i kinda wish Polish one had them too. Not that they would actually stop me from reading this, but I started this book with intent to get some nice escapism with a tad of intellectual challenge and I wasn't quite prepared for what I got. I saw a post that talked about how in fantasy or sci-fi wars are a thing that just happens and serve more as a plot device, but are not treated as like an actual tragedy and how this isn't the case for The Poppy War. I think this is a very good point and I very much agree with this but I wish this book was marketed in a more accurate way (with mention of the genocides) than "cool protagonist goes from poor orphan to badass" (almost literal description from the back cover).
- on genocides: the Golyn Niis part was so hard to read. It totally gave me flashbacks to the time when we talked about Shoah in Polish lessons in high school and I had to read like 4 short stories by Tadeusz Borowski about Auschwitz, one novella by Zofia Nałkowska about investigating Nazi crimes and one book about the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising by Hanna Krall & Marek Edelman* (and it was all in the span of like 1-1,5 month) - all of which were written by survivors of said events, so it was an extremely difficult and emotionally exhausting read. Parts of The Poppy War had the same effect on me, so it shows the author really did her research and is to be appreciated, although while I would like to know what happens plot-wise in the next parts of the trilogy, I think it would be too emotionally draining for me to read.
- Having said all this, I found the Speer genocide theme really interesting. The legends and propaganda surrounding it, its impact on both country politics and Altan's (and Rin's) personal stories... Also I really liked how Rin's perception and understanding of it changed. Plus it served really well as a backstory - its effect on the whole plot was huge and manifesting in unexpected places but without the feeling of being hammered into reader's head.
- Altan: that guy. He was an interesting character, but a very unlikeable one. He was such an asshole... (And yeah obvs still trauma and all that but he really was one). Also I found it confusing that at the end of the book Rin was like "omg his power is so strong because he's fueled by revenge!"... duuh? It was obvious since her convo with Jiang about lore students?
- But generally Rin's relation to Altan was for me one of the strong points of this book. I'd say that Rin's emotions regarding him were very realistically written - admiration, longing for approval, the feeling of similarity, anger, frustration about his expectations, the need to rise to the challenge he posed, to be his equal... And then the shock as he fell from the pedestal she constructed; the understanding, the pity and the sadness. I loved how complicated that was and that we as readers got to see that Rin's Altan and the actual Altan were two different persons, even though the narrative is close to Rin's POV.
- Chaghan: he was my fave character. This is, again, personal, but works of fiction work 200% better for me if the characters are well-written - which The Poppy War rather lacked: few characters were interesting and even less were likeable. Chaghan was both - maybe he didn't have a big arc and was rather a secondary character, but he was intriguing, had that close bond with Altan (I ship them) and also was the most competent person in the cike (Quara was the second one). He was very straightforward and had that no-bullshit attitude, but unlike Rin, Altan etc., what he said and his actions actually made sense. So every time he had to went away from the main character I was devastated...
- What I really enjoyed about this book was the parts about shamanism. I'm not an expert about what goes on in modern fantasy, but I have a feeling that a character of a shaman often appears in a very exoticised way (wonder why is that /s), whereas in this book it was treated seriously and was a basis for a great magic system. 9/10 very original take, highly recommend.
* books mentioned: "Medaliony" by Zofia Nałkowska, "Zdążyć przed panem Bogiem" (eng: Shielding the flame) by Hanna Krall & Marek Edelman, Pożegnanie z Marią by Tadeusz Borowski

The Poppy War - R. F. Kuang
!!!! This was very very good!!!!!
Rin, a dark-skinned orphan shop-girl, wasn’t supposed to pass the test to get into Sinegrad Academy, the best school in the Nikan Empire. She especially wasn’t supposed to continue rising in the ranks and find out about her secret, dangerous aptitude for shamanism. But war is brewing and Nikan is going to be invaded, so she’ll need all the power she can get.
This book is very loosely based on Japan’s invasions of China. This means it has an equivalent of the rape of Nanking, and it doesn’t pull punches. 
In fact, this whole book is about not pulling punches - brutal, bloody, with a little maniac of a main character capable of anything she sets the sheer force of her stubbornness and rage to and a world built on death. I loved it.
It’s a book with a lot of plot and weight to it, and I thought it was all handled wonderfully - there’s so much information packed into a relatively small page count but none of it feels rushed or dense. 
I already mentioned I loved Rin, but, like. I love Rin. She’s absolutely dedicated to reaching her goals and accomplishing the impossible - this girl burned herself regularly so that she’d study harder for her exams - and it’s so entertaining to watch her attack the world and win. 
And Altan, who is SUCH an interesting and screwed-up character. He’s a tragedy given flesh and even thinking about him makes me sad right now.
Plot: very good. Pacing was excellent. I love a book with a little bit of weight to it, that covers a significant amount of time, and this did it. We start with her exams and proceed from there - I don’t want to mention much about what we proceed to because I walked into this more or less blind and really enjoyed it that way.
Characters: Rin and Altan shine. Side characters, such as Kitay, Nezha, and Jiang, are funny or fun to hate, but don’t have as much heft to them. In any other book I’d be impressed by them - I still am in this book, too - but they’re nothing compared to Rin and Altan. Seriously, I love Rin.
Setting: history meeting fantasy in so many interesting ways. It isn’t just Medieval Chinese history with some magic added in, which would be interesting but familiar. Kuang has taken events from the 20th century, hand-picked some of her favourite concepts from earlier times, and mashed them together to form something new and interesting. I especially appreciated the dedication to creating a pantheon and folklore and history, which really gives a world some weight. 
Prose: subtle and understated. It’s got a few knock-out moments, though: “Children ceased to be children when you put a sword in their hands. When you taught them to fight a war, then you armed them and put them on the front lines, they were not children anymore. They were soldiers.”
Diversity report: the cast is fantasy East/Southeast Asian. High-quality female characters.

Dear Yuletide (2020) Writer
This is a filler post, please do not reblog!
General DNWs: explicit or graphic sexual content (implied or euphemistically written is fine), non-canon-compliant major character death.
General tropes I like: Found Family, First Times, Epistolary Fic, Slice of Life, Mutual Pining, Canon Exploration, Canon Divergence, Friends to Lovers, Enemies to Lovers, Mild Angst, Character Introspection
Request 1: NezhaRin, The Poppy War by R F Kuang
I think I mostly would like AU content for them, because canon-compliant would simply be a variation of H/C and I’m not into reading that (for these ship). I’d prefer AUs like Fairytale AU, ATLA AU, or Boarding School AU (the last one can be canon-compliant/divergent if the fic isn’t shippy! I disliked canon Nezha’s treatment of Rin in the Academy so idt I wanna necessarily read them being romantic in that context. Unless it’s a canon-divergent Nezha redemption :eyesemoji:) Tropes I’d like: First Kiss (or just physical touch in general?) and Rin and Nezha Use Their Words (in a way that doesn’t end in anger or betrayal or both CRIES AT RFK)
Including Kitay and Venka would make me VERY very happy, especially if they have scenes with all four of them. I am caught up with TDR (but not The Burning God) so I would be grateful if the fic is not spoilery.
A specific prompt for a specific fic I’d like for these two (but you don’t have to fill it, it is just in case): A fairytale AU where Nezha is a prince of the Dragon Kingdom, cursed by a fabled dragon (the curse can match canon’s) and Rin is a secret shaman and peasant who saves him. This is an Enemies to Friends or Enemies to Lovers fic prompt!
Request 2: Harryanthe, The Locked Tomb Trilogy by Tamsyn Muir
The Harryanthe (Harrowhark/Ianthe) tag is so empty, I would be grateful for anything tbh. And I say Harryanthe, but I would also GREATLY love Griddleharryanthe (Gideon/Harrow/Ianthe) like A LOT.
I don’t have any specific ideas for what I want to read but things I would definitely like to see: BANTER please snipy snarky bitch banter, Harrow and Ianthe having a genius-nerd-off, Gideon being lewd and flirty towards both Harrow and Ianthe, Gideon being tender with Harrow and a dick to Ianthe, Ianthe being a Huge Bitch but also simping for Harrow (and Gideon?)
Palamedes Sextus is my favourite character so please work him into the fic somehow, if you are able!! Even a snippet of him and Cam being there would be fine.
If you would like a specific prompt: I’d like GtN canon-divergent scene packs with either harryanthe or griddleharryanthe. OR the canon-compliant Ball AU in HtN with the three of them :0
Request 3: ManChung, Hotel Del Luna
I love ManChan couple but Lee Do Hyun as Chung Myung gave me second lead syndrome and I would love more exploration of ManChung. Canon-compliant is preferable, but it can be canon-divergent also. No H/C please! I would like to see happy ManChung, with a HEFTY helping of Mutual Pining and BANTER. Yeonwoo cameos would be greatly appreciated.
Request 4: Character Study, Extraordinary You
I would like to see character study fics for any or all of the following characters: Haru, Yeo Joo Da, and Eun Dan Oh. In order of priority!
For Haru and Yeo Joo Da, I’d specifically like to see a character study of right after or during when they gain their egos. For Haru, the first time he gains his ego as Number 13.
For Eun Dan Oh, I’d like to see a character study of her after Haru disappears for the second time (in the finale) and that one year in the Secret universe. It can start off sad but I’d like to see what the character would be feeling beyond just grief! (Because Dan Oh had kind of mellowed out and accepted her fate in the epilogue, right before she finds Haru’s journal. I wanna see how she got there)
If these are too specific, I’m also okay with a shippy or gen fic with the ships Joo Da/Do Hwa and DanHaru.
Request 5: Gen, It’s Okay to Not be Okay
How did publisher Lee Sang In meet and hire author Go Moon Young? Why did Moon Young agree to work with him? In the show, Sang In says he’s been working with her for a decade, so they would have met around when Moon Young is 18 or 19. And admittedly, Sang In is the closest person to Moon Young before the Moon brothers enter the picture. You can tell she trusts him, even if she treats him badly; he knows about her father, he takes care of her affairs. And Sang In is fond of Moon Young. How did they get to that point?
I’d like the fic to explore both the characters and their relationship. It doesn’t have to be super detailed, or cover both their POVs, but I’d like it if it showed how the two feel towards each other. Cameos from either of the Moon brothers would also be nice!
If this is too specific, a cute gen fic about Sang In reacting to Moon Young and Gang Tae getting married would be nice too.

[Lyrics] Boku wa Sonzai Shiteinakatta
Lyrics: 秋元康 (Aki-P) Composition: 目黒良子
Translated by tensaichanv. Do not reupload.
English
I don’t believe in myself I didn’t want my existence to be known
On windy days, I don’t even think of leaving my room Until the wind outside stops blowing
The curtains are drawn closed over the window to my heart I breathe quietly in my little corner of the world
We dream to give ourselves hope But if it means I’ll get hurt, I’d rather not dream at all
I’m just a dull colourless flower Even if our paths ever cross again There’s no way you’d remember me So it’s pointless to say I like you
How far do these clear blue skies go Under your tender gaze, I now know what it means to be free
You knocked on my lonely window, over and over And taught me about the vastness of the world
It’s necessary to know what it means to live Even if I’m struck by the wind and rain, I can always start over again
I’m a flower who has colour too I’ve finally noticed after all this while You shined a light for me to see Maybe it’s okay if I say I like you
Even if it all seems like it should be someone else’s problem You’re the only one who, without abandoning love— I hear your voice coming from somewhere, calling for me
Comparing myself to other flowers I’d always despaired, alone But just like how every flower has a colour I have my own colour, too
I’ve started believing in myself Now I might even be able to tell you I like you

Kanji
僕は自分を信じていない 自分の存在 知られたくなかった
風が吹く日は その風が止むまで 部屋から出るなんて考えたこともない
心の窓にはカーテンを引いて 世界の隅でそっと息をしてた
夢見るってことは 何かを期待すること 傷つくくらいなら 夢なんか見たくない
僕は色を持たない花 君とまたすれ違っても きっと僕を思い出せないだろう 好きと言ってはダメなんだ
青い空よりどこまでも澄んだ 自由の意味を知るやさしい眼差しで
孤独な窓を何度も叩いて 世界の広さ君は教えてくれた
必要とされるのは生きてる意味を感じる 雨風に打たれても生まれ変われる
僕も色を持ってた花 やっと今さら気づいたよ 君が僕に光をくれたんだ 好きと言ってもいいのかな
すべては他人事のようでも 君だけは愛を見捨てずに どこからか 僕を呼ぶ声が聴こえる
他の花と比べていた ずっと一人絶望して どんな花も色があるように 僕には僕の色がある
僕は自分を信じ始めた 今なら好きだと言えるかもしれない

Great Content from JSConf Budapest 2019
Tumblr media
JSConf Budapest is a JSConf family member 2-day non-profit community conference about JavaScript in the beautiful Budapest, Hungary. RisingStack participated in the conf for several years as well as we did this September.
In 2019 we delivered a workshop called "High-Performance Microservices with GraphQL and Apollo" as our contribution to the event.
Tumblr media
Now I'm happy to share the news with you that all conference talks are available online!
Top Picks by the Community:
Essential JavaScript debugging tools for the modern detective by Rebecca Hill
Debugging JavaScript can drive developers crazy. It’s not surprising when so many us stick to the trusty console.log - but there are better ways. From tracking down a critical issue in production, to simply struggling to add a new feature and not realising you’ve misread some documentation - debugging skills are used every day but it's difficult to take the time to improve those skills when the pressure is on.
Tumblr media
This talk will show you some really handy techniques that will level up your skills of deductive reasoning.
Take on me, web browsers! by Eva Ferreira
In 1985 pop music was mesmerized by the a-ha “Take on me” music video. It’s been almost 35 years since then, the world needs new catchy tunes with impressive video animations… on the web.
Tumblr media
In this talk we will explore the bewitching ways we can modify web videos and create immersive experiences worthy of the ‘80s using JavaScript and CSS. Let us swim in the why-not possibility of Chroma key, Rotoscoping and more video animation techniques on the web platform!
API Modernization: Building Bridges As You Cross Them by Shelley Vohr
In an ecosystem undergoing constant flux, what does it mean for an API to be modern?In this talk, I'll discuss the work that's taken place over the last year to deliver modern JavaScript APIs to developers in the Electron project, and the obstacles we encountered along the way.
Tumblr media
You'll come away with a deeper understanding of how open source projects can more effectively balance innovation with maintenance, as well as perspectives on how to appropriately consider end-users and their needs when modernization affects the code they use.
Check all JSConf videos below:
Accessibility vs latest Web APIs. Can’t we just get along? by Mauricio Palma
Unfortunately, we still treat accessibility in the same way we deal with front-end development for older browsers, something to be done at the end. What if I tell you that we can use the latest Web APIs and still offer an inclusive and accessible experience.
In this talk, you'll learn how to combine Web APIs such as Speech Recognition and Geolocation, with performant Javascript techniques to create empathic user interfaces.
Testing in production: Ideas, experiences, limits, roadblocks by Jorge Marin
Are you afraid of testing in production? Do you test in production? Do you use real data?
By definition testing in production is hard. This talk puts together my experience testing in production a large scale system that affects millions of users. Experience, ideas, limits, roadblocks, tips and more.
Weaving the web - Programming textile-based interactions by Charlie Gerard
What if you could interact with interfaces and devices using your clothes? When we think about wearable garments, we usually think of the technology as an output. We might think of LED dresses or designer-made outfits that react to the environment but what if instead, we used this technology as an input, as a way to interact with other things.
This talk walks you through the process of making interactive clothing using conductive textile. Also Charlie shows what it can do and talks about the possibilities and limits of such technology.
Composing music with composed functions by Adam Giese
Functional programming can be difficult to learn. Although there are many practical lessons, they are often hidden through academic lingo and dry examples. What if these basics could be livened up and taught through the lens of music?
Together, we will go over some of the basics of functional programming including functional array manipulation, closure, immutability, and composing functions. Adam also shows how they can be applied to the creation of music and musical instruments using the web audio API.
How not to read the room: Creating socially awkward wearables by Stephanie Nemeth
I’m introvert. This can be bit unfortunate, when you are a person that enjoys spending a lot of their free time creating things bedazzled with LEDs… only to rarely wear them out in public. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In an effort to actually share my weird and wonderful creations with others, I decided create a wearable project that would force me to be sociable in order for it to reveal its magic.
In this talk, Stephanie shares how she used machine learning with javascript and tiny computers to make “fashion” that is responsive to the people around you and the attention you are (or aren’t) receiving.
Taming Git-osaurus Using Mystical Trees by Damini Satya Kammakomati
Raise your hands if you all start to panic when you mess up your local git workflow, trying frantically to save your work and eventually giving in to the complications thereby deleting your repository. Well, Git isn’t the terrible dinosaur you think it is, on the contrary, the messier it becomes, the more interesting it gets.
This session aims to make friends with Git and to express the hidden gems in the mysterious git land which will definitely help you to become more productive and look cool in front of your peers struggling with a git-gone-wild.
Web Norms of the World: An exploration of the internet beyond the West by Kat Kitay
Flat, muted minimalism, vast fields of whitespace, millennial pink landing pages: the internet today, amirite? In this talk, we'll take stock of these biases and take a culturally relativistic look at the internet outside of our comfort zone. We'll explore questions like: Why are Japanese websites so information-dense? How does a script like Arabic, read right to left, affect web design? What languages do (or can) programmers across the world use?
The viewers of this talk will walk away with a fresh perspective and ideas for improving our web and making technology that's more inclusive of a global audience.
Legendary Lambdas by Tejas Kumar
The Serverless paradigm is one that is slowly taking over the internet. This talk dives deep into Serverless, particularly Serverless Lambda Functions, and their benefits and drawbacks to web applications. We will also discuss how they can benefit business, being extremely cheap to implement and maintain.
As a practical, technical case study, we will examine serverless performance across a number of popular front-end UI frameworks and measure various metrics relevant to a serverless application.
Mastering UIs with Finite State Machines by Rubén Sospedra
Did you ever feel like monkey patching your UI component? Adding too many if/else, handling a lot of complexity or hacking several non-desired side effects. Did you ever have a problem with double-clicking an async button? Fetching multiple times the same resource in a row? Did you have problems translating UX interfaces and mock-ups into your applications scenes?
All this kind of problems can be properly fixed by applying a different point of view. An architecture based upon Mealy state machines. Also known as finite state machines or automatas. These machines are deterministic, pure and idempotents. Opening a new set of possibilities from predictable components to autogenerated tests.
Deciphering Brainwaves with the Web Audio API by Braden Moore
Early last year, my colleagues and I did something amazing — using only JavaScript, the browser, and the Web Audio API, we were able to decipher brainwaves. It sounds sensational, but it’s (mostly) true. This is a story about how we converted brainwaves into audio signals — and then back again — to solve the problem of epilepsy diagnosis on the web.
In this talk, you’ll get to see a new browser API being used in a novel and unprecedented way, combined with world-leading innovations in the field of epilepsy diagnosis. You’ll learn about the challenges of real-time brainwave filtering and how we solved them. As you’ll see, the technologies we use each day can sometimes be applied in unexpected ways.
A privacy first period tracker? Is it even possible? by Benedicte Raae
Do I want to track my cycles? Yes. Do I want the tracker to push my data to a third party? Hell NO! Do I want the data lying around unencrypted in a database somewhere? Not really. Do I want backup and access from multiple devices? Kinda.. What would I need to learn and is it even possible?
Learn how Benedicte created a secure and private web-based period tracker.
StrangerDanger: Finding Security Vulnerabilities Before They Find You! by Liran Tal
Open source modules on the NPM ecosystem are undoubtedly awesome. However, they also represent an undeniable and massive risk. You’re introducing someone else’s code into your system, often with little or no scrutiny. The wrong package can introduce severe vulnerabilities into your application, exposing your application and your user's data.
This talk will use a sample application, Goof, which uses various vulnerable dependencies, which we will exploit as an attacker would. For each issue, we'll explain why it happened, show its impact, and – most importantly – see how to avoid or fix it.
Testing presentation components visually by Balázs Korossy-Khayll
You have written all the unit tests, integration and e2e tests imaginable to your project, your code coverage is in the skies, you are sure that everything is in working order, your application is ready to ship. Or is it? Frontend developers often face the challenge that even a plethora of tests don’t cover visual differences, and while the functionality might be working and protected by tests, we don’t know much about the layout’s and visual styles’ correctness.
Writing unit tests or manual testing for visual styles is tiresome and error-prone, so at BlackRock we came up with a better solution. Using Storybook we have developed a way of comparing visual differences of the rendered images of our presentational components.

I wrote so much about #KachoFuugetsu ...
Evening Its Ishida Ayumi
Hello! Project 2021 Spring "Kacho Fuugetsu"
Today, was also the last performance for Kacho! Everyone, really, good work~!
Thank you for your support until the end
It was really supposed to be a performance in Osaka today for Fuugetsu
Everyone --- :(
It ended up being cancelled, Since it was was long-awaited day, Please let me write about Kacho Fuugetsu today too!
(I said I would yesterday though! lol)
My 2shots with the members, I successfully challenged taking them with everyone, so there are a lot
they're all together on Instagram
Having concerts, with the members, there are lots of scenes where our eyes met <3
Everyone was grinning,
It had a warm feeling
But,
Towards those scenes of us meeting eyes, our basic posture was facing towards everyone so!
What makes you feel the members the most,
this time its the voices!!
Everyones singing voices, it come in with a thud!
Since I had a lot of moments like, I like that voice now,
I think I'll look back on it..... <3
(Since I'm writing a ton about scenes in songs, those that saw it, and those that haven't, please follow along till the end!!! lol)
For Kaedy, there are a lottttt of wonderful parts <3
Interview 1 Interview 2
I also wrote about her here!
Therefore I was thinking about what it should be in particular~ but,
But in SEXY BOY ~Soyokaze ni Yorisotte~, ♪Nestled by the breeze (Sooyokaze ni yoorisotte--)
Yeah! There!
This is our first song as the team...... Its a Morning song....... it was particularly impressive including that element
Kaedy always, we always go into the intro while looking at each other like, we're fired up! But day by day we started hiding from each other and making strange faces, I really liked that
In a similar situation, our eyes meet a ton during the intro for Akai Earphone, I'll do it when I do it lol
Mei-chan was, man! She shot through everyone!
SHAKA SHAKA TO LOVE ♪ Its ok to like yourself! (Jibun wo suki ni natte iinda yo!)
that line.....
<3
The audience was often stuffing down their cheers, but being able to applaud, (thank you for cooperating with infection control)
With that,
She really shot through with explosive power with that line
Conversely with that, I also saw a cool Mei-chan
in Oh my wish! ♪Running away~ means losing (Nigeru~ wa make da yo)
Here! Her rhythm was good and it was cool!
I met eyes with Mei-chan so much, within those moments she was also grinning,
Panda-san Power <3
For Rikako,
Ai no Sono's, ♪ You can be~g for it a bit *Oneda~rishi, te, kurete ii yo)
That!!!
Be~g
That! I really love that! ......I pinpointed it <3 lol
She has a really good voice although its husky, its wonderful when the high notes get a bit heartrending
In the 1st A Melo of Hatsukoi Sunrise, Rikako is diagonally in front of me and to the left, I watch her back like, how cool~, after that I move towards the back of the stage, I intentionally moved 1 tempo later because I wanted to make eye contact, I really like that time
Kamu-chan, thank you for really doing your best in both the Wind and Moon performances!!
Kamu-chan's voice!! I like it so much!! (its the best in the last chorus of Oyogenai Mermaid)
Its also the best in the last chorus of Dakishimete Dakishimete, and also her lines in Hatsukoi Sunrise are the best,
my favorite in particular personally is, Oh my wish!'s ♪this is what you have to do to shine..... (Susumu beki michi ya kirakira to) Listening to Kamu-chan there she has a great and kinda voice
Even as we've been performing it in Morning, I like that it wasn't like something I had heard before
During the face to face dance in Dondengaeshi, even though its a cool song, she wasn't at all! She was grinning ←
Rin-chan!!! Rin-san!!!
Um, yesterday, I was like, one night I saw a pretty big lizard stuck to the window of my house and I was like Uwaaaaaa! Since Rin-chan likes reptiles, even though it was late at night, I took the trouble of sending her a photo of it
Rin-chan's parents, if Rin-chan was up late yesterday, its my fault, I sincerely apologize......←
In Gekihara LOVE, ♪captivated by you ❤️ (toriko ni naru)
this part from Rin-chan was very... <3
Rin-chan is a funny girl, like, her happiness from winning rock paper scissors, Among Us, or happiness from winning Werewolf, she's amazingly honest,,, I have the most differnt impression of her now
the hook in Dondengaeshi, I faced Rin-chan in that, its a time I liked in everyone performance
It was hot! but, when it felt like I was forcibly meeting eyes with her it was funny, and fun, it was like I was being an idiot! lol I was also really having fun--! lol
Manakan!
Her ankles are thin~❤️←
Manakan's fake in DOWNTOWN, the notes are bright like they're dancing, that song feels exciting! since I'm standing next her when she does it, it was like we were excited together♪
In DanshaISM, ♪Whether to gain or loose it all~ (subete toku ka son wo susu ka)
that too, I got into it!
Scenes where I met eyes with Manakan during performances increased, we faced each other in Hatsukoi Sunrise, being far away, we should have been looking away from each other but, we saw each other! realizing that, we intentionally stood on stage and faced each other, its a memory I laugh at ~
It was fun! its like we could feel each other, I liked that time
Dan-chan's voice, her singing, everywhere has left an impression on me
Especially from my point of view! I'll list the spots
Hatsukoi Sunrise's ♪I want to touch your love (Kimi no ai ni furetai)
Why is it there, until Dan-chan's solo part there, Dan-chan and I make eye contact, I'm grinning <3
This girl, the next moment, singing so cooly?
I wonder if its conveyed I fell in love every time it was really cool
Renai Destiny ~Honne wo Ronjitai~'s ♪this feeling of fuzziness, rather, this sense of justice put on as a public façade (Moyamoya to sore ijou no tatemae no seigiken)
Matching the music, aren't there various ways to sing this phrase? I feel like its packed in, I really love that its so cool there!!!!!
I'm lost with Saorin~
hmmm,
Maybe its the key change, in Dakishimate Dakishimete!
its a good feeling that she got into it every performance with a thud,
This was when BEYOOOOOND's weren't able to perform in Kacho Fuugetsu but, all the parts that were sung with Koko-chan, they became Saorin's solo parts, her doing that was really cool and impressive
Really! Amazing!
Speaking of making eye contact, the part where we put our hands together in the choreography of the B melo for Date ja nai yo Uchi no Jinsei wa, Saorin's eyes were big and round, was she being charming? or was she doing it normally? what is it?,,,I was arbitrarily being played with <3 I liked it <3
For Saorin, I'll call her Saorin but, sometimes, Saori!!! its like want to call her that, I find it interesting and unique~~~ lol
Maopin! Good work performing with Moon as well she performed more than anyone else, thank you
I had many duet parts to sing with Maopin♪
the part I liked from Maopin is,
DanshaISM's, ♪ the things we really need (hitsyou na, mono wa)
her sense of rhythm between the no, na, to, mo!!! I love that part!!!
For the performance, even with Maopin singing, the moment our eyes meet, she is naturally cute, I love it
by the way since this is a Tsubaki song, I can listen to it in the future!! I'm happy!!
she was also cool in Ai no Sono...
For Oh my wish!, in Winds she was a dance member, in Moon she was a singing member, she did both of them
the choreography is different, and the standing positions are different
Just how amazing is that......
thank you
Takase!! Kurumin!!
KEEP ON Joushoushikou!!'s ♪Stand proud as a human~~~ (ningen wo hokore)
Here, so the dance club can change clothes, I'm in a hurry during it but, I like the relaxed Takase here, it may be kind of unconsciously but, it was Takase's voice that really got in my ears
It had power, but the voice was cute~~
Also a thing I like about Takase, she often says, cute!
she amazingly praises people honestly
this personality of Kurumin, I also really like it
During Gekihara LOVE, scene where we make eye contact at a weird angle, since its an absolutely funny face with a double chin, I sort of want to tell you to please erase that part from your memory←
Koko-channnnn
I'm happy that we stood on stage together as she came to see me in concert before...
Koko-chan starts as the center in Oh my wish!, I was happy about it (those that know, will know, its probably an emotional kind of thing...like that) fufu
DanshaISM's, ♪This is minimalism (Ko-re-zo DanshaISM)
Date ja nai yo Uchi no Jinsei Wa ♪So don't make a crying face (Nakisou-na-, Kao shi-naide-)
I particularly like here singing voice here, Koko-chan's voice is wonderful as it spreads out straight! Perhaps her personality, you can see it in her voice as well, she's really kind, straight forwardly, Koko-chan's eyes sparkle <3
I make eye contact with her in Renai Destiny, I try to pull in Koko-chan, but probably, as it seems like Koko-chan didn't really get it, she was moving all floaty~, it was doubly cute lol
Last, Miyo-chan
I'm happy we stood on stage together, I was happy again from Miyo-chan, feeling happy about it!!
its love <3 lol
Ai no Sono's ♪ though theres nothing I can't do (Dekisou mo nai kurai na, ko, to)
I liked this the most!! from rehearsals!!
This!? Whose voice is that now!? it was like that, it has a gap from Miyo-chan's normal voice, I was charmed by her mature and feminine singing voice
Akai Earphone's ♪I expected a fated romance (Unmei no koi wo kitai shita)
I also, like this
When we look at each other, she was making finger hearts just about the whole time, its really cute~ but with her support as my pair in Oh my wish!, she's also reliable~ but after all, she's cute
it ended up being really long,
(&it ended up late) excuse me
Thank you for reading this
its kinda, this feeling, its really completely different than from a solo concert
it was kind like times we did plays
it was limited to this time but, we did it
its long so I'll finish it,
as a whole,
everyone,
Complimented and praised each other from an honest place, and we helpe each other a lot
Somehow even with me,
Eh~ Ishida-san's cute~
being told that, Since, that doesn't really seem to happen a lot? at first I didn't know how to react! lol
I'm really happy
The end!
Thank you for supporting Kacho Fuugetsu!
Tumblr media
Yay
Tumblr media
During standby~~~
see you ayumin <3

English: Hello! I opened my window and whispered. How are you? Alone in my room, with no one. Morning! The morning has arrived, with a heavy downpour. Tick-tack. Someone please rewind my spring for me.
Hello! I think that kind of person appeared only in old anime. How are you? I am so jealous, that someone can be loved by all. Sleeping… I must stop saying silly things and start preparing. Crying… In order to hide my tear marks.
“Oh well whatever” has become my favorite phrase. That line from yesterday went straight over my head: “I don’t have any expectations of you anymore.” Well, even I myself don’t have any expectations of myself, but still, what was THAT for?!
The words that escaped from my throat were nothing but lies. Today, too, I have wasted some valuable words, as I continue living my life.
Why is it that you end up hiding it? Is it that you’re scared of being laughed at? Is it that you don’t want to meet anyone? Is that really true? Drowning in a sea of the name “ambiguity”, I’m suffering because I can no longer breathe. I now have a small urge to listen to someone’s voice. I am so weak.
With my preparation going nowhere at all, I start thinking with my hazy head: “Should I just find a reason so that I can rest now?” Nah, I know, I know, I’m just saying things, that’s all, but I’m not going to rest, so don’t get angry at me.
Just be happy or miserable, it was your free choice since long ago Morning sun will always rise, it is cruel but it is fair I’m already trying hard just to live and to stay on guard What else do you expect me to achieve with what I am?
Why do you end up being bothered by this? Is it that you actually want to be loved? Who was it that let go of your hand? Have you come to a realization? If my life has a time card, then exactly when do I get off my “work”? Who will pay me my salary for having been living all this time?
(Thank you!) I should say what is true and tell you “thank you” (Thank you!) I should say what is true and tell you “thank you” (Thank you!) If even just one time, I’ll say how I feel Feel like screaming, feel like crying, feel like shouting out of wildness from my heart ’cause I just want to thank you”
Why is it that you end up hiding it? Is that you actually want me to ask you about it? I promise that I will not laugh, so why don’t you trying tell me? I won’t know anything if you don’t open your mouth. You won’t convey anything by merely thinking in your head. What a troublesome creatures are we again? The human that is right.
Hello! How are you? To you, I say “Hello! How are you?”
