I noticed that loading the main page results in requesting 19 css files and 8 js files. I suggest combining those to provide a better loading experience.

Nice job noticing that. This is a high priority on the roadmap. I have some cool compressions and reductions planned for the site's assets.

Hello again :) I kinda like the site but... I'm not really sure what it's for? Is this for sharing my CV, getting a new job, sharing links... where does it fit in between Monster.com and HN/Reddit?

On the front-end optimisation end, that's my "thing" so hit me up if you want to talk about that!

I'd be interested in discussing this more. The quick answer is that it's 1st) a way to share what you're reading 2nd) a way to find others to work with.

The CV aspect is fairly unique to this sort of site, which is why I think it gets so much attention in these discussions. But as you can see it is a smaller aspect to the site compared to posts, questions, and even profiles.

The CV feature is rooted in this desire I had to host my resume, shown in its original formatting, on a clean, uncluttered page with stats showing me how many views it gets, by whom, and from where. I can share it with a simple link to anyone interested in seeing it and actually know with some certainty if they looked at it.

I recently(ish) starting to work on web design after years in desktop product management. A community like this could be terribly helpful.

Excellent, be sure to request an invite and I'll make sure you get one.

Done!
