    that’s great for you, i have to sleep with sound - the silence is not deafening, but the hum/etc is when it is silent

    outside of Q, I think I've used most all of these in one way or another for various reasons. Most can be done with calc() and whatever the nearest root value is - but some of them …

    tangentially related (not affiliated with the company, just a fan), but https://usewindy.com/ does similar stuff - and more.

    to be fair, preprocessing comes with some other QoL things that I don't see CSS being able to support natively, namely mixins with math functions. edit: don't get me wrong, i'd lov…

    i, for one, am most looking forward to full support of subgrid - pure css masonry/isotope layouts with no JS needed when your cell requires images to retain a certain aspect ratio,…

    with the a/b testing we’ve done in our admittedly niche market - yeah it matters

    hate replying to something i already did - but i also never said liveview required JS, just...it still uses it if there. Liveview is a really slick answer to this whole thing, and …

    i ask myself the same question, but apparently they're out there

    i suppose i should have prefaced with liveview uses JS...if you intend to use JS or dynamically update anything edit: much like the SSR being described

    right, i get that - and liveview is a sick piece of kit, so congrats. just saying that for what most would use it for - it is still using some JS

    it does, but when design and top brass say it needs to fade in - back to some JS you go

    i think you're conflating static sites with sites that lean heavily into JS frameworks. plenty of sites are not static, cause they need that whole session thing, and don't use JS f…

    > FOUC would still be an issue. hell, just using webfonts can cause FOUC - no JS needed.

    liveview still uses JS, its just rather out of the way in what it does edit: livewire in laravel land does a similar approach - tho not as fast currently, leverages alpine.js under…

    realistically speaking, if done correctly - SSR would allow the site to work without JS. Now, in practice, that comes down to what is required on the client side for interactivity …

    and when websites are kind of apps, but not really so you need the SEO benefits of regular websites yet the interaction of apps....then you get into the fun bits

    that tracks with our experience as well

    sure, just saying that only EC2 instances were impacted is disingenuous at best. all of our production services are multi-az as well

    Comment #32268595

    we definitely had issues with all of the AZs in east-2, and far more services impacted than just EC2 (f.e. RDS, elasticache were intermittently down for us)
