    While editing one GitHub comment I may be writing another. If you must, implement it as a link, but all else equal I’d prefer keeping the other state alive when canceling one comme…

    It’s not just because it’s associated with summer, quite the opposite: many of us just feel that sunset 30 minutes after work in the winter will be less depressing than the sun set…

    I think usually they rave about Novamin, which, at least in Canada, isn’t in the Pronamel line IIRC but in other Sensodyne branded toothpastes. _EDIT: “repair and protect”_

    Do you have numbers for that? The graph in the article says 21.31% by their analysis

    Loopholes are by definition legally allowed.

    Do the example functions (isObject, isNumber, differenceDeep, randomUUID, debounce), along with the name (“SuperUtilsPlus”), and sentences saying “utility library” and “JavaScript”…

    I’m not a huge fan of his, and maybe you’re only talking about more recent films, but Terminator and Titanic have more than “minimal cultural heft” as far as Hollywood movies go.

    Didn’t downvote (can’t even downvote, wouldn’t anyway), but if I were to guess it’s that the article talks about it fairly extensively.

    It depends on what one considers useful. E.g. they were also first to support the `:has()` selector/pseudo-class, which I think can be useful for avoiding JS in some cases.

    But it’s not core functionality, it’s just a convenience. Making it more convenient for everybody equally is an admirable goal, but should a trivial change that makes life a bit ea…

    What a throwback. Somebody asking whether another used ATI graphics. Another person asking whether they should support PPC Macs.

    (The following comment agrees with you, it is not intended as an argument against what you’re saying): Technically being able to contain the content and actually being able to boot…

    Semantic nit: STC is a type checker, SWC already compiles TypeScript well. TSC does both (unless flagged to do one or the other) so it depends on what needs replacing. Why it matte…

    I’ve started again. I stopped for a while because they stopped feeling novel, but when scrolling through older photos from 5+ years ago, the photos of people that had Live enabled …

    Worst of all: the first seniors get to refactor the professor’s code.

    Thanks! Donkey Kong Country felt truly next gen at the time, it makes sense that Nintendo would offer reward deals afterwards.

    You’re absolutely correct, but I’d love to hear more about why Rare is an exception. Is it just because they mostly made games for SNES before N64? If so my recollection was that S…

    Self-reply: I see that the website links to tldraw under Job, which might be a good example to weigh the shipped size vs the same thing minified, except that it's already minified.…

    Do you have any strong example websites? The website you linked is very simple, I can’t see why most pages on it would benefit from using JS at all except for analytics or similar.…

    All of the comments on this post that include numbers show that using both is better than just one or the other, mostly when the code’s sufficiently large. I agree with the recomme…

    You’re right for the large majority of cases, but there are exceptions. These days some use canvas or WebGL, in the past some have used Flash or Java Applets/Swing. A popular app t…

    Did your experience involve the (recommended) build step? It uses, at least last I checked, a purgeCSS step to remove unused rules and decrease the css size.

    In fact, I’ve seen an extension several times: senior developers performing code review, and requesting that unnecessary, but clarifying, parens be removed. Not excessive parenthes…
