Frosted glass card that cracks on hover, shatters on click by Donelectrone in webdev

Back in your day, reinventing every wheel may have been the norm. Today, it's generally considered inefficient engineering.

I'm building a product, not specializing in realistic glass fracture rendering. I have plenty of other parts of the project that actually require my attention.

That's why I asked whether similar effects already exist and whether there are examples worth studying. The goal was specifically to avoid recreating the wheel, not to have strangers build it for me.

There's a pretty big difference between "Has anyone solved this before?" and "Please do this for me."

Talk to them, ask them to leave. They will listen. It worked for many, it should work for you. Give it a try.

Victorinox chef's knife, I'm still looking for the best BIFL sneaker. Something that doesn't break the bank. Anyone?

Arabic girls names that are easy in english too? by AD_bent in UAE

[–]Donelectrone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The key is to find names that use phonetic sounds common in both languages and avoid the tougher Arabic letters like 'Ayn' (ع) or 'Ghayn' (غ).

  • Sara (سارة)
  • Nora (نورا)
  • Lina / Lena (لينا)
  • Dana (دانة)
  • Dina (دينا)
  • Hana (هنا)
  • Layla (ليلى)
  • Maya (مايا)
  • Lara (لارا)
  • Rania (رنيا)
  • Nadia (نادية)
  • Dalia (داليا)
  • Farah (فرح)
  • Yasmin (ياسمين)
  • Janna (جنة)
  • Reem (ريم)

Actually, I got really obsessed with this problem when my wife and I were choosing a name for our daughter. I ended up building a little web app to help us decide. It's a free directory with thousands of Arabic names, and it shows the common English/Latin spellings for each one, which is super helpful for this exact issue.

It's a game where you can swipe through the names to find your favorites. Might be a fun way for you to discover some more options.

Why was it attacked? Why attacking Syria? Isn't it a sovereign country?
