I can’t comment on this one specifically, but SVG animations take notably more CPU usage to render/animate in Chromium browsers compared to GIF or WAAPI. And they block the main th…

Software from big companies can be made with love too?

If you ever want to go all out with a musical light show, I have some recommendations here: https://aluhrs.com/blog/holiday-lights-electronics/ For your specific question, Wally’s …

I didn’t say don’t use libraries at all. There’s a wide spectrum between rolling your own everything and putting a massive abstraction layer framework between you and the platform.…

My experiences don’t really align with yours - most people are playing “follow the leader” with tech - “X uses Y, so we should to” and that’s it. To your point though - use the pla…

To your third point - the author would recommend doing research and prototyping with all the options you might consider based on your use-cases. He actively avoids being prescripti…

Cool project, a mild pet peeve with this type of thing - I have to read 75% of the README before I find out what it even does. The first bits make a huge assumption about what the …

There’s a pretty thorough post covering this here - https://infrequently.org/2022/03/cache-and-prizes/

I don’t need 90% of my IDE features. For me personally, it’s a fantastic way to learn. I could definitely see people just using it and not actually learning, but to each their own.…

I’ve had a project I’ve been doing for ~6 months learning python through Copilot+ChatGPT. It feels like any other project that accrues technical debt, but that debt is just a lot w…

Which hits the problem pretty well, right? To do something efficiently on an iPhone, buy a Mac.

Speedometer 3 is designed to handle the real world you describe. Edge’s post has some details - https://blogs.windows.com/msedgedev/2024/03/11/contributing-...

"relies on Edge" is a bit inaccurate. WebView2 and Edge ship from the same codebase, and are hardlinked if they both exist, but are separate from an install/uninstall perspective. …

It's not Electron, it's using Edge WebView2 which is drastically different from MSHTML.dll in many ways. If you have it installed you can see the msedgewebview2.exe processes in Ta…

It's not Electron, it's using Edge WebView2 - https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/webview... If you have it installed you can see the msedgewebview2.exe processes …

You might want to check out CapacitorJS - https://capacitorjs.com/ It’s more web than RN and depending on what you’re doing might not feel as native, but it’s pretty easy to make a…

That seems like a lot of gross simplifications with hindsight bias.

Metaverse? Llama? They’re doing both. How well they’re doing those is up for debate, but they’re doing interesting stuff too.

I also switched from Monica because of this. I love the features, but no iOS syncing was too painful of a gap.

Talking about “actually” learning something feels very “no true Scotsman”. You could replace GPT in your comment with StackOverflow, Google, or a textbook and they’d read like the …

It's pretty easy to find that the example I gave isn't gamed... A cursory search on GitHub can find a couple examples like dotenv [1] and npm's cli [2] both use it via an older ver…

This is how you end up with massive tech debt though right? Replacing a dependency is going to be more expensive than writing something yourself, especially if it’s been around a l…

You would think that, but this seven line NPM package has 68M downloads a week - https://www.npmjs.com/package/isarray

IMO, aggressive npm install is the superset of the framework problem. We code review every line written by other developers at our company with a fine toothed comb, but will add a …

If you've got specific feedback they have a GitHub repo - https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/DevTools/issues/
