I worked with Rudi at Figma and of course support his comment - Figma seems to be mentioned for marketing, not for the actual technical comparison. For others looking for more deta…

I am a heavy user of Brave and I would love for you to expand on what you mean. For those curious, here is the open-code repo of all Chromium changes Brave applies. I have not read…

I worked on LiveGraph for a long time at Figma. We went through our own evolution: 1. first we would use the WAL records to invalidate queries that could be affected (with optimiza…

Thanks Nikita!

Thoroughly enjoyed the article since I have heard about Neon but never understood what it offers on the technical level over other PG-compatible projects. The article mentions that…

Old inspect features are still available without paying, although they were moved in the UI to make space: https://www.loom.com/share/d4f9856c04f24818913d1de8ecb2a08c

I don't think I have heard of the automatic AoS/AoS before, do you have good links to study more?

Oh yeah, a pure function that accepts previous state, and returns the new state is the pattern I use a lot. The issue is that it is hard to do on complex graph structures in an alg…

Slightly off-topic but what's a good forum to seek help on FP practices outside of the courses like this online? Every winter break I get back into trying to learn more FP (in Hask…

No way to confirm, but I think so, just because NPM threw this error at me: KV GET failed: 401 Unauthorized where KV could refer to the CF KV in workers

I only read the article once, but to me it seemed like this was an explicit requirement: produce a vector artifact that renders the same on all platforms without dependencies (basi…

Does it support exporting to SVGs without requiring the used fonts installed on the viewer's system? That seems to be the issue the author is trying to address.

Not the same but a similar curious case of historical immigration: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koryo-saram

We omitted the details for the sake of brevity (the article is already really long), but we run agents on the test devices and plug them into CI. Agents allow remote access for ser…

Hey there we test on macs, windows and linux laptops, it is very surprising that drawing 1 rectangle is painfully slow. Sometimes it happens when your browser does not enable hardw…

(author of the article) I want to acknowledge that the load-times for Figma go up linearly with the complexity of your design file + its dependencies. It is always painful when use…

Absolutely! Evan and the early team laid a strong foundation when Figma was ported to WASM + WebGL. It happened before my time at Figma, but check out these earlier posts from Evan…

That's a good way to address the noise on VMs! We do something different but in a similar spirit: when we compare to the main branch, we calculate the baseline based on 1-2 weeks w…

Thank you for your comment! WASM gave Figma a lot of speed by default for a lot of perf-sensitive code like rendering, layouts, applying styles and materializing component instance…

It's worth noting that a lot of Figma's UI outside of the canvas is React (panels, toolbars, menus, etc).

Hey, I am one of the authors of the article and the systems described. The default 20% margin of error is indeed pretty wide, and it is intended to catch large obvious regressions …

I never worked at Asana but I heard it was both, it had code sharing between client and server, some server-side javascript before node.js (I think it was based on JSC) and somethi…
