I do agree on avoiding electron if possible as users do notice. I've seen folks who perhaps don't know the intricate details of software run into performance issues. A public example: Dwyrin is a YouTube streamer playing Go/B

Did Netflix allow you to work remote? I was under the impression they are pretty strict about engineers being in Los Gatos or LA.

Nice site. That seems like a surprisingly fast depreciation rate. I would have thought Teslas would hold their value longer compared to other cars.
