@OctaviaConAmore @mynameistillian @gavi “wait supporting mental health means i cant use stigmatized disorders for political expediency and personal convenience?”

somebody said a thing cost them an arm and a leg, but they still had all their arms and all their legs and that got me thinking: where did they even get an extra arm and an extra leg, like I guess an arms dealer, but what about the leg?

This one wants to be trained

@kasdeya i’m trying to make a custom ui element which accepts a list of arbitrary data, then binds that data to templates at runtime

its kinda like this (sorry if this is fucked up or doesnt make sense)

# a protocol defining some thing which can be bound to some property
class Bindable(Protocol):
  def bind(value):
    raise NotImplementedError

# data that can be bound to a bindable object
class Property(Protocol):
  @property
  def value(self):
    raise NotImplementedError

  def has_updated() -> bool:
    return True

# some ui element which can be cloned/instantiated to make copies
class Template(Protocol):
  def instantiate() -> Bindable:
    raise NotImplementedError

class ListUi:
  _data_source: list[Property]
  _template: Template
  _ui_elements: list[Bindable]
  _capacity: int
  _index: int
  
  @property
  def data_source(self):
    return self._data_source
 
  @property.setter
  def data_source(self, value):
    this._data_source = value
    self.rebind_items()

  def bind_items(self):
    visible = self._data_source[index:self._capacity]
    iter = zip(self._ui_elements, visible)
    for element, item in iter:
      element.bind(item.value)

basically i just want to have a list of properties that will update their respective bound template when they change. unity has a pretty featureful system for handling this but Got Damb its complicated
