Hi! I'm a PM on the Chrome web platform team working on advanced apps including PWAs. Can you tell me more about what's missing in PWAs in terms of support and UX? PWAs are well supported in Chromium browsers. Can't speak to

Mentioned in another comment, but to be clear, our team contributes to MDN, and will continue to do so. Web.dev is not an MDN replacement.

Our team actively contributes to MDN. Web.dev is not an MDN replacement, it's a channel for guides & other supporting documentation.

As another user mentioned, we do contribute to MDN. MDN is where we point devs for reference documentation. web.dev is for guides, how to's and other support docs.

Background geo, including geofencing is challenging, but there may be a way forward. We're exploring this conceptually, but it's not in the plan for 2020. I'd certainly like to be able to improve the capabilities of web based

Thanks for the feedback! This is now the reference "first PWA" example: https://web.dev/codelab-make-installable . Let me know if you find it easier for new devs to get started with. The other codelab and a lot

Hi there, I'm the product manager for PWAs on the Chrome team. Very interested in hearing about pain points you've had building out PWAs, especially if there's features you were keen on that haven't been released. Easie

From a Canadian viewpoint, the last couple of years of populism has been a bit like discovering your favorite Uncle has a probably lethal opiate addiction. But, you're going to get to inherit his Corvette.

I believe the goal of the study was to explore how visual perceptions & expectations could influence the perception of taste. Have you ever been focused on an activity and had more than one beverage at hand, and picked up the wrong one?

There isn't a lot of good data on foreign transactions because regional and federal governments have worked hard to make sure data was not collected on it. Popular pressure is slowly changing that. One observation I have is that even i

The only way I can see to fix this is if there was more economic incentive for advertisers to care about the quality of the articles where their ads are placed. There must have been attempts to do this. I wonder what's been tried that

Maybe some, but not all. An old but concrete example: Andy Grove, in High Output Management, describes a fairly typical 8 to 5 day in which he works until he's tired, with level of fatigue vs level of "doneness" being the dec

Do you have a preferred brand or online source? I've also had good experiences with St Johns wort but found quality varies a lot from what you get at a pharmacy.

The tremor was something I was aware of since I was a kid, showed up in bad handwriting and general "clumsiness" with fine motor movements. Nobody ever thought much of it other than that I was "clumsy". It wasn't u

OK - I'll bite. I haven't seen anyone mention medications here but personally I use propranolol. Life. Changing. For the first while I took it every day as prescribed for my ET. 20mg. And as I experienced the first pill (effect

I'm by no means a medieval scholar. But this doesn't mesh at all with the information in the"The Swerve" by Stephen Greenblatt (a national book award winner). The texts of the pagans were not preserved because they were

Dead on! The overhead with gzip is very tiny. The size of the payload should also not be a factor in the cached condition.

Your graphs are pretty -- and it's an interesting page, but your ping section makes me wonder about the rest of your data. You don't qualify what you're pinging, but if we're talking ping to the internet gateway, ping over a strong 802.11n

I freely admit I'm on the web side of this issue. No question that apps are big. But there's a lot of data out there that people regularly used less than 10 apps in the last 30 days. Almost all of those are social or built-in apps. They
