Probably mistaking Denmark for "Holland".

They added lazy loading of fonts a couple years back, which took a chunk out of startup time.

> * It has an easy-to-use package manager, and I'm not sure where C++ is on that front. In the inescapable hell of n+1 competing standards.

Given GDC is postponed are you planning to wait out and see if it's successfully rescheduled or otherwise? I've been on a bit of a GA binge recently and am especially curious what …

Does your GDC talk have a name yet? I'd like to keep an eye out for it.

I don't know the current state of go package management but I do know the equivalent Go project cited Rust's package manager Cargo as a good reference for developing their own. You…

Addressing your entire post would require further research on my part so I hope you'll excuse that I only address what I can recall off the top of my head. > Fennec Fox for mobile,…

Servo was a test bed, a place to experiment with new technologies on a minimalist browser. The successful underlying technology was/is being moved into Firefox (desktop and mobile)…
