Three guards keep the click meaning navigation: the active step does not react (clicks there are for reading and selecting, not going where you already are), a selection is not a click, and a link is a link. The pointer cursor and the title's breath of pink now belong to dimmed steps only -- the active one is just prose. 2026-08-30T17:16:30Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T17:16:30Z urn:sha1:a3715c1eefb083385c42af8a52484c4b612fffe8 Clicking an article's h3 glides it to the middle of the viewport -- the exact spot where the tour's observer activates it, so the click also switches the recording, through the same door scrolling uses rather than a second mechanism. The pointer cursor and a breath of pink on hover say clickable. 2026-08-30T17:14:10Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T17:14:10Z urn:sha1:b34cab730e986f0558d6626a93b3f03d48076541 Two overlaps the section observers missed. The show opened on the big logo leaving, but the hero's buttons sit below it, so there was a band of scroll with the little logo arriving on top of install/try/docs -- observe the whole hero instead. And at the tour's exit the stage unpins and is dragged up through the logo's air before the try section crosses its line -- no section boundary says so, but two rects do: a rAF-throttled collision check against the pinned player's rect, and whenever the terminal would touch the logo, the logo yields. Verified by sweeping fifteen scroll positions: shown through the whole tour, hidden over the buttons, the rising terminal, the demo box and the install tabs, with zero overlapping frames. 2026-08-30T14:59:01Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:59:01Z urn:sha1:a1a6b53987b82ab829194ddaa16f39f4c8438689 2026-08-30T14:54:38Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:54:38Z urn:sha1:a1fd6a4e124c0b4e16c31ad6ef7ac5b6f617966d window.SLOSHCAST_SPEED, multiplied into each mount's own data-speed: the front page sets 1.25 and every recording plays a quarter faster than authored, the scripts under demos/ untouched -- their pacing is theirs, and how much of it a visitor's attention span gets is the page's call. The clock keeps counting cast-time, so the timestamps mean the same thing at any speed. 2026-08-30T14:51:59Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:51:59Z urn:sha1:c4140555d2d5b45afcc769f1ca182ab872a19a78 The title drag had one beat -- drop in the middle, trade places -- which undersells the feature: carried over a pane, the target subdivides into a centre and four edge bands, a band meaning "in beside it, on this side", filling the half it would hand over while every other candidate greys out. The cast now lingers over the centre, steers into a band, and drops -- and the drop restacks the whole tab, a rearrangement no swap could produce, chosen so the release visibly changes the layout (the first cut dropped a pane beside the neighbour it already had, and proved nothing). The band is aimed by its entry in the compositor's hit list, like every coordinate in these demos: the rect the program promised is the rect the pointer hits. The panes article's bullet follows suit. 2026-08-30T14:32:03Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:32:03Z urn:sha1:d5023e474f42bc41a2a1d89a130f4fc43842976f A real ghost button centred under the running machine, in the hero buttons' own dress -- ghost on purpose: booting stays the loud verb, stopping the quiet one. The caption drops to a side note beside it. 2026-08-30T14:29:56Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:29:56Z urn:sha1:17c9fd17c4f0502f3453347c3b0842f3bb4d6ca1 A caption under the running machine offers the off switch, dressed as a link inside a sentence. Dropping the iframe out of the DOM tears the whole VM down -- emulator, kernel, disk cache, the lot -- the stage shrinks back into the poster (the original nodes come back from a stash, listeners and all, so the boot button is immediately live again), and the scroll follows both ways. Reload always did this; the button does it without taking the rest of the page with it. 2026-08-30T14:28:57Z user user@clank 2026-08-30T14:28:57Z urn:sha1:a5ce3d56f9ba17acf073b9ca051e658bfd262cae A try section between the tour and the install box: a modest poster with one button, and the machine only when the button is pushed -- the front page keeps costing two files, which is the decision the README recorded when the demo got its own page, still being honoured. The click grows the stage to most of a viewport *before* the iframe goes in (the guest reads its geometry from the room exactly once, at boot), then glides the scroll to land the machine centred. An iframe, not the demo's scripts inlined: the emulator's emscripten glue owns its globals by name, and isolation is what keeps this page and that blob out of each other's namespaces. ?embed=1 makes the demo page drop its own header and footer inside the frame; standalone it is unchanged, and phones navigate to it rather than embedding -- wasm under a soft keyboard in an iframe helps nobody. The floating logo learns the tour's edges properly while at it: the try section arriving closes the show (measured with a -45% rootMargin, because the tour's exit margin lets the section ride high while the last step is still centred), and a section scrolled past counts as arrived, not gone.
