    What happens when these Ohio IPs get their Chrome upgraded and you no longer can detect them?

    For the past 4 years, I've been working on a library that does exactly this — https://github.com/astoilkov/main-thread-scheduling . It works in all browsers and it breaks long task…

    Any ideas on how to use the new models through JavaScript in the browser or Node.js?

    Yeah, I will ask them. I haven't seen those. Thanks!

    Yes. I want to publish a single page. I know you can use Obsidian to publish a folder. Can I upload a single file and not see the sidebar?

    Ask HN: Is there a service for uploading Markdown files that render beautifully?

    I currently have an `,upload-gist` binary to upload files as GitHub gist but that isn't very beautiful. I also have my own website but there I haven't built the infrastructure to u…

    Yeah, you are right. I reverted the commit. About the generations, do you imagine a function that accepts a generator function and the user uses yield? Something like: ``` mainThre…

    This is on my list. I want to provide a `signal` property to enable easier and more efficient cancellation.

    It's done — https://github.com/astoilkov/main-thread-scheduling/commit/0... . Thanks. A little thing but a great improvement. I'm now wondering why I did that.

    Yes, that's it. You choose where to pause/resume work and place the calls to `yieldOrContinue` there.

    8 years ago, I created a repo that allowed you to easily style messages in the browser Console ( https://github.com/astoilkov/console.message ). It got popular back then. I'm wonde…

    I've read the article. I remember when something similar happened with Why We Sleep. I'll take the time to readjust my views. Thank you.

    I would recommend going through the most popular quotes on Goodreads — https://www.goodreads.com/work/quotes/16402639 . You also read the reviews of other people. Both of these thi…

    I've been thinking about this myself. I'm highly productive and always avoid unnecessary complexity. My most common question is: Can we not do it? However, when I worked for a comp…
