    If the problem seems vague, then the solution is not for you. The concept of a "mom test" is condescending as well. Many moms code.

    Yes, but multiplexing does minimize the problem. You could multiplex batched requests for hundreds of resources with my strategy.

    They don't reduce request count. For example, Chrome only allows 6 concurrent connections (requests). If you load 10 images in 1 request, you've reduced network latency and avoided…

    As a publisher. One who seeks to decrease load times on pages that require many resources.

    Ask HN: Would you pay to reduce HTTP requests?

    Would you pay for a service that reduced the HTTP requests produced by your multimedia? This process results in faster load times.

    I'm interested in tech R&D. Please share your story about selling or licensing intellectual property (in this case code-based IP). Was it a net positive? Would you do something dif…

    I already have a working prototype that batches media requests. In my example case, I'm sending 1 request and receiving 6 images in return.

    I'm familiar with css sprites too. That's still just 1 image per request though. Say you wanted to populate a social media feed... you'd need to dynamically call media. That produc…

    Ask HN: Retrieving multiple images with a single request?

    Is there an existing solution that retrieves n-images with a single request? Rather than an individual request for each image? Note: I am familiar with HTTP2 multiplexing.

    Why such archaic examples? Imagine visiting this website, Hacker News, to read a few posts/discussions. Does the idea of circumventing a refresh offend you? You could click into a …

    Ah, but that's not that case here at all. It's not an app. It's still a sandboxed web page. The only difference is the communication method. Rather than a transactional client-serv…

    It does sound like it, but no it's just plain JS. I recorded a short clip; showing is better than attempting to explain. Edit: It is almost AJAX. The more I think about it the more…

    Ask HN: Why don't we stream websites like movies?

    Streaming data would allow for "browser-based applications" (e.g. single request/refresh-less web applications). Why is the standard approach still transactional?
