  I know nobody asked for this, that’s why other people’s realtime cursors are back at https://tonsky.me/ (they were temporarily gone due to a bug) Right now most of them are reading https://tonsky.me/blog/js-bloat/, which is an excellent article btw That’s a first. Spacing (even horizontal!) defined in terms of viewport height. Can’t decide if galaxy brain or just silly  Almost, Google. You are almost there. Now make them real toggles https://grumpy.website/991 Somebody at Apple was adding 24h to get to the next day. The result? When TZ changed, they got Thursday twice Just got to use clj-reload in a project, as a user. It feels so nice! I immediately got rid of all state/disable-reload namespaces and just put defonce-s where they belong: next to the code that uses them. And it still works! Between reloads! Amazing I think by this point we have to fire everybody at Google and just start over. People knew how to design good dialogs for 30 years, if not more. What happened?

 @nikitonsky Why don't you simply  From the article on Safari butchery attempt a few years ago This happens everywhere now. "Looks good on mobile ship it"  Starting today, https://tonsky.me/talks/ is completely JS-free. I removed all the YouTube embeds (1 embed == 3 MB !!! of JavaScript) and self-host all the videos. Should help with preservation, too.

 @nikitonsky also, not defending YouTube here, but still: does the "3 MB per embed" figure account for caching? I may be wrong, but I'd imagine it being more like 3 MB overall. Haven't actually tested that, though. Sure, transparent screens are the staple of sci-fi designs, but in real life, why? What’s the idea? Why would I want to see something behind the thing I actually want to see?

@nikitonsky Its a TV trope! You want actors to have F2F conversations in SciFi scene without the inconvenience of peeping around monitors.  @nikitonsky Transparent screens rock when they are TV's which you don't see when they are switched off!

@nikitonsky Relatedly, I was clearing cached data out of Chrome yesterday night and discovered that the Ace Hardware website, which I’m pretty sure I visited ONCE almost two years ago to buy some dowels, was consuming 699 MEGABYTES of site storage. Just gonna let that hang in the air.  Petition to rename HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol) to JSTP (JSON & SPA Transfer Protocol)

 @nikitonsky Eh, that's some ugly "everyone should speak only American English as that is the only correct English" vibe, both are perfectly valid and fine, and even Sublime uses a nice, consistent bracketful language in its configs. @nikitonsky And <THIS> is HTML 😋 |
@nikitonsky If you have a real wide monitor, does it finally snap?
