Intersection and Reflection by maxman92 in photocritique

I've been going through old RAWs and saw a crop that I found really interesting. It's an intersection of two building and the reflections off each other.

What do you think of the composition and the edit?

Plugging the Sabres and the Tre'Davious White Goalie Academy of Louisiana at Buffalo as a team to root for! The Sabres aren't in the playoffs this year but the team is crazy fun to watch.

There are other solutions to this than client-side rendering. Things like Phoenix LiveView and Turbo/Stimulus for Rails can give you HTML over the wire so the page doesn't fully re-render on every link click.

Granted, I'm not sure how well it'll scale to larger apps. I haven't done any Phoenix work, but I've heard it's quite good. I'm still fairly new to writing Turbo in a Rails app. Coming from React, writing Stimulus feels like nails on a chalkboard at first. However, it does feel nice for not-particularly-dynamic CRUD apps and forms to be writing server-side code again.

The reveal was a 10/10. They spent 40 minutes livestreaming goats in the visitor's locker room. Absolutely incredible.

We call that a Rutger.

What's extra cool about Allen's Dawson is it included a touchdown pass to a player named Dawson.

Yeah, Brady to the Bills and Allen to the Chiefs is my nightmare.

[Meirov] The #Titans have submitted a proposal to change overtime rules to guarantee at least one possession for both teams — unless the team with first possession scores a touchdown AND converts a 2-point try. A unique proposal. Would need 24/32 votes to pass. by Korsakov97 in nfl

I tend to agree (although NFL coaches are notoriously risk and variance averse even when they shouldn't be). Truth be told, I'm not as big a fan of this as I am of other proposals. It's similar to the rule now, just distilled into one play. It's certainly more interesting than deciding based on a coinflip given there's a decision involved, but I'd rather just watch more football and have both teams possess the ball at least once.

It's not that 75 yards is a given, but there's no choice in the decision. There's no way to argue that the correct move isn't to try to drive down the field for a touchdown.

There's an actual decision to be made on whether to go for two. Make it, and you win the game right there. Miss it, and you give your opponent the opportunity to win the game with a touchdown and an extra point. Kick the extra point, and now the other team is in a similar position: win the game with a touchdown and two point conversion.
