The time is right for a DOM templating API

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-08-29 18:23:28

TL;DR: I want to propose adding a declarative templating API to the web platform. Here's why... The web platform is the most successful application runtime of all time. While the largest reason for this is the web's reach, it wouldn't be possible without the DOM API, which turns a mostly static document viewer into a highly dynamic and expressive runtime. For as much hate as the DOM sometimes receives (some of that deserved, but some really not!) the DOM is undeniably a very powerful API. This

Microsoft Is Having an Incredibly Embarrassing Problem With Its AI

futurism.com Unknown 2025-08-30 06:29:33

Despite investing tens of billions of dollars into OpenAI, tech giant Microsoft has a problem: it's in direct competition with its business partner, and OpenAI is winning. As Bloomberg reports, Microsoft salespeople are having trouble wooing both potential and existing customers with the company's Copilot, its AI assistant built on OpenAI's tech. Basically, it feels like a worse version of ChatGPT — which has a free version online. Some companies, like the New York Life Insurance Co, told the

13-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop review: A slightly worse version of a year-old PC

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-30 07:27:34

Microsoft's new 13-inch Surface Laptop is an odd one. It's inarguably a step down in every respect from last year's 13.8-inch Surface Laptop. But it's also too good (and too expensive) to be considered a replacement for the Surface Laptop Go, the company's perennially overpriced and underspecced entry-level laptop. It's cheaper than last year's Surfaces, but mostly because Microsoft gave those devices a de facto price hike by killing the entry-level configurations of those PCs. We're left with

A new laptop is an investment, and making it last is essential to maximizing its value. To care for your new laptop, you'll want to minimize the amount of bumps and vibrations it's exposed to and keep it closed when not in use to protect the keys and screen, which can be fragile. Maximizing your laptop's battery life is also part of its longevity, as it's best to keep it between 30% and 80% to optimize battery life.

NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope has captured direct images of a planet outside of our solar system, which is the first time it has accomplished such a feat. This is a very big deal because exoplanets don't put out much light, so researchers typically discover new planets through indirect methods like keeping track of shadows as they pass across a host star.
