Sometimes I forget about the way Micro.blog archives any web page you link to or bookmark, including images and styling. I just checked the database and there are hundreds of thousands of web pages and millions of resources. Slowly turning into a personal, miniature Internet Archive.

Okay, for the folks who asked: here's the majority AI view, writing up the reasonable, thoughtful view on AI that the vast majority of people in tech hold, that gets overshadowed by the bluster and hype of the tycoons trying to shill their nonsense. anildash.com/2025/10/17/t... Please share!

You should be using JavaScript sets more often
Now in all browsers and Node - these 7 new set methods are key for when trying to compare two arrays or sets of data.

![New JavaScript Set Methods
const set1 = new Set(['wes', 'kait']);
const set2 = new Set(['wes', 'scott']);
Difference
Elements in set2 but not in set1
set2.difference(set1)
> ['scott']
Intersection
Elements that exist in both sets
set1.intersection(set2)
> ['wes']
Symmetric Difference
Elements in either set, but not both
set1.symmetricDifference(set2)
> ['kait', 'scott']
Union
All elements from both sets
set1.union(set2)
> ['wes', 'kait', 'scott']
Is Disjoint From
True if sets share no elements
set1.isDisjointFrom(set2)
> false
Is Subset Of
True if all elements are in other set

Is Superset Of
True if it contains all other's elements

Fate/strange Fake: Whispers of Dawn (https://anilist.co/anime/154966/Fatestrange-Fake-Whispers-of-Dawn/)
A Fate production not done by ufotable? Call me skeptical but A1 is probably one of the studios that might be able to do it justice. This is just "Episode 0" and very much a shotgun...

Neva lets you pet, play, scratch, cuddle, and fight with the dog (and tears were definitely shed in the process). Gris is a better game and I prefer the puzzle platforming versus the combat in Neva, but the mechanics are tight and ultimately satisfying.

Metaphor: ReFantazio (https://metaphor.atlus.com/index.html?lang=en)
Improved Persona-esque mechanics with a more complex and flexible combat/upgrade system. The story didn't quite resonate with me (felt very one note) and while the OST is good, it's not Persona.

Arcane - Season 2 (https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/94605-arcane/season/2)
An immense visual spectacle, banger OST, and a story that felt like it could have used two more episodes. I’m not complaining! They took their time and delivered on the promise of season 1.

Hazbin Hotel
Masterpiece! I can’t believe I’m so late to this… This is everything I could ever want in a show. The music is out of this world, the voice acting is better than most Broadway A-list shows, the art is pitch perfect! Now, to dive into Helluva Boss.

Oshi no Ko 2nd Season
Doga Kobo is on an absolute tear. While this season may not have the punch of the first (and I missed the OP & ED) I loved every aspect (and very glad I waited until the end of the season to binge it)

Took out my trumpet to record a bit. Can only do about 15 minutes before lips get too tired, but was nice to get it oiled up and making sound again. Still frustrated that I can’t seem to find my SM57s after the remodel. Was holding off on getting new mics thinking they might turn up, but no dice.

Interesting that again there was a huge spike but no long tail in artist accounts moving from Twitter/X to Bluesky. I was expecting a longer tail as what seemed to be a critical mass took action, but maybe it has to do the venn diagram of communities.
