Walk through it instead of filming it - #29
Merged
Conversation
The last box on #14 asked for a recording that works with the sound off. A recording of this page would be a copy of what the compiler said on the day it was filmed, and this page's whole claim is that it prints what the compiler prints. The two would part company and the recording would win, because it is the thing that looks authoritative. So the walkthrough moves through the page that is already here. Five steps, a caption saying what to look at, four and a half seconds each. No sound to turn off and nothing that only works if you can see colour: the caption carries it and the section is scrolled to. Auto-advance is off entirely under prefers-reduced-motion, and anything that means "I am reading this myself", a wheel, a touch, a key, ends the tour rather than fighting it. The two playground links still carried 0.2.1, which the playground would have warned about for no reason since the programs did not change. tools/check.mjs now reads the version out of every share link on the site and compares it to the pin, verified by writing 0.1.9 into one and watching it complain.

Closes #14, and the last box on it is answered with something other than what it asked for.
It asked for a recording that works with the sound off. A recording of this page would be a copy of what the compiler said on the day it was filmed, and this page's whole claim is that it prints what the compiler prints. The two would eventually part company, and the recording would win the argument, because it is the thing that looks authoritative.
So the walkthrough moves through the page that is already here. Five steps, a caption saying what to look at, four and a half seconds each. No sound to turn off, and nothing that only works if you can see colour: the caption carries the meaning and the section is scrolled to.
Auto-advance is off entirely under
prefers-reduced-motion, and a wheel, a touch or a key ends the tour rather than fighting whoever is reading it themselves.If a real video is still wanted later, it can be recorded of this, which is the ordering that keeps it honest.

The two playground links on that page still carried
#0.2.1/, so the playground would have warned that the program was written against another version, for no reason: the programs did not change between tags.tools/check.mjsnow reads the version out of every share link on the site and compares it to the pin.
