That is a fantastic and highly amusing speech, thank you for linking it.

Somewhat orthogonal to your point, but it is interesting to me how easily some will dismiss perspectives or ideas by referring to them pejoratively as "western".

Seems like that would quickly turn into a game of reverse engineering shitty KPIs, would it not?

Yeah, you're quite right; nothing new was said here. But, I think there is sometimes value in saying things again, or differently.

Hmm, I found it uplifting. I'm not in the startup space, but I feel like I have been struggling with prioritization, without really understanding what I was struggling with. In my case, the constant tugging from one operational crisis

It's not about being unique, or what you can/can't do. You certainly can mock a front end with a ssr app, but it gets messy when you are building a rich client app and need to start sharing state back and forth.

I always thought of the benefits of SPAs more as a separation-of-concerns thing. You can pretty effectively build a functional front-end web application and mock a set of back-end REST apis, while another team builds out a the back-end. The

Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but this seems like a pretty unlikely threat vector.

Yeah whenever these SPA-slamming posts come up, I just try to imagine carpenters posting about why they switched to hammers from screwdrivers. They're just different tools that excel at solving different problems.

I don't have anything to contribute or collaborate on, but just wanted to thank OP for the excellent idea, this looks like it really hit upon a community need.

I'm sincerely hoping that whoever wrote this is a hockey fan. (for those who aren't, Connor McDavid is arguably the best hockey player alive today)

I don't really agree with the tone of your comment, and why would you cite a section of the article where the author was talking about a front-end testing framework?

Seems a little ironic to call out a piece of software whose literal job it is to connect to the internet for... Connecting to the internet. Tongue in cheek aside, I don't know much about Brave - is there some specific reason that it ne

My guess as to why this isn't a built-in feature: encoding video with high fidelity is taxing on hardware (a good amount of CPU/GPU/disk space required), and it's a fairly niche use-case for any popular remote conferenci

This is extremely impressive research. I think if COVID has taught us anything though, even an array of available, safe, preventative medicine is not convincing for some people.

Genuinely curious, what has JavaScript taken away that you used to be able to do with the web? (other than use sites with JS turned off :)

This is neat! The simulation didn't remain "stable" for me for very long though; biot count pushed over 3000 and I dropped to just a few fps. I'm on a phone and I'm also a bit color blind so I'm probably not th

This is really cool! Feels very chill. If I had one suggestion, some parameter sliders would be fun. Modify the speed over the land/height of the mountains/variance in mountain height. Well done and thanks for sharing.

Yikes. Fortunate that it is Saturday. Hope they are able to get things resolved quickly!

I suppose I don't quite match the reasoning you're describing, but here's mine. I indent; I just don't want semantic meaning ascribed to whether or not I'm missing an indent. I'll handle the {}s, my editor hand

Is this some legacy infra that Acoustic has "inherited" from silverpop, perhaps? An old-but-valid DKIM key, a private dns entry for a mail2550.paypal-notification.com server, etc?

"Things" is pretty broad. Thinking of software, probably early "beta" Gmail. There was so much about the email experience that was improved by a stable web client, with what felt at the time like unlimited storage. Think

I'm a bit shocked that MAIL-FROM auth was ever accepted, let alone until 2012. Even the other auth methods via email seem somewhat dangerous, though I sincerely hope these registries follow extremely strict policies for key management.

Is this the origin story of the epsilon variant that makes 2022 a miserable time? I really hope not.

Gotta say, while I'm not surprised, and it's probably st least partially response bias, it looks like HN has really got its turkey roasting game figured out.

Elegant is not the word I'd use to describe PHP. Solid, perhaps. Undoubtedly useful. But if there is elegant PHP, I haven't seen it.
