> Regarding discoverability, I doubt anyone finds projects through GitHub's search or discoverability features, but rather through a search engine like Google or DDG and online communities.

I've found a lot of interesting projects via GitHub search and via GitHub newsfeed (mostly because I follow people with similar interests and they star interesting projects). Google links to discussions in places like online communities, which works quite well too, but Google doesn't seem to rank GitHub very high on search results, even when looking for the exact project name.

Generally Scratch-like languages can be referred to as "visual" programming languages, or "block based" languages. "Frame based editors" would be this new combined approach.

There is also some support for the Switch with TinyGo (A Go compiler for embedded system), but looking at the current state of the docs for this platform it's hard to tell how well supported it might be: https://tinygo.org/docs/reference/microcontrollers/nintendos...

A lot of packages actually use PEP 440 versioning: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/

But this is very close to semver and resolution works very similarly.

> There are 16 versions on PyPI which end in a newline character. Of these 16, 12 have registered the stripped equivalent too ... Visually, on PyPI, these look identical

I often navigate through package versions in the PyPI website, and seeing something like this would have driven me nuts!

Good point, to me that explains why this is a GitHub product instead of a Microsoft (or VSCode) product.

It's also not easy to quickly identify it's a link, as the word highlight is the same as the previous examples.

Maybe adding an underlines or something to make it slightly different might help with that.

This is pretty good! One thing I wasn't able to trigger (or understand) was the "hover me" part from the "Interact with the content" section.

Thanks for sharing! What would be the main advantage of this vs something like Google Slides?

I definitely saw this in How I Met Your Mother in Netflix, where a movie poster on a cinema wall was (badly) replaced by a newer movie that came out after the show aired. I wouldn't have minded if it was done better, as that specific example was quite noticable, but it is perfectly possible there was a few more of those that I didn't notice.

How did it end up being absorved by GitHub? The "raw" button in the file views use that domain now.
