 The amazing engineering of Jira It re-loads 15 MB of Javascript every time you open a ticket. It loads the same scripts again and again (yes, including a full copy of jQuery). Even though these scripts are likely cached, just the sheer incompetence is staggering   Thoughts on the new iOS control centre https://manuelmoreale.com/thoughts-on-the-new-ios-control-centre "A quick note before this post goes off the rails: Apple recorded almost 100 billion in profit in 2023. They can afford to hire every single UX and UI designer on the face of the planet with that money. Keep that in mind as you read through this rant." |

@dmitriid I'm no fan of Jira, but to be fair to them a lot of these scripts look like they are coming from browser extensions.
If you try this again in a private window (ie. without extensions), do you see the same thing?
@dmitriid Atlassian is preparing the next billing concept: By traffic… 🤓
@dmitriid Caching may help with not having to reload those 15MB via the network. But still the browser has to parse some of that JS, possibly quite some. And even "just" a few MB of code to parse unnecessarily is utterly irresponsible. A waste of user time and a waste of energy.
