The coarse carbon mats don't even filter half of the fumes. These super basic fan+mat fume extractors do get the fumes out of your face, which is the most important part, but the particulate and VOC levels in the room will quickly exce

I prefer light mode + f.lux or Redshift. There's no need to stare at cold blue light all day long. Fun fact, there is actually a CSS media query for selecting dark/light themes: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US&

You need to spin up a server if you want to use modules anyways. Well, it's not a big deal. Just run `python3 -m http.server` or install "http-server" via npm.

I wonder if you can still cut and engrave it with a CO2 laser (10.6 µm). It might be a very interesting material to work with.

There are ventilation systems with heat recovery. They are usually triggered by a timer or humidity, but it would be also possible to trigger them based on VOC or CO2 levels. Single-room heat recovery ventilation units are relatively afford

Markdown themes are also a great starting point. You only have to set the margins/width of your document and maybe some sort of header & footer and you're done with the CSS your very basic but also very readable website.

I still think that vertical rhythm is snake oil. Yes, it does look neater if you have a striped background and the lines of text align with that. However, you won't use a striped background. There is nothing else those lines of text al

Devices for measuring the concentration of particulates (PM10, PM2.5, and maybe PM1.0), TVOC (total volatile organic compounds), and HCHO (formaldehyde) are fairly affordable nowadays. You could get one of those. The air quality indoors is

You're still returning a live HTMLCollection or an Array. It's still bad code. Using newer syntax to do the same thing didn't actually improve anything.

In Chrome and Node, Wasm code is executed by V8. V8 can be embedded in C/C++/Go/etc applications. That allows you to use JS for scripting. This is quite different from compiling to Wasm, though.

It's a few KB with Cordova/Phonegap. However, startup is bad, performance is bad, and testing is terrible. Also, making UIs with HTML/CSS/JS really isn't that nice. The workflow with Flutter is way more streamlined.

Yea, it's not a problem. Even more so if you can install apps onto SD cards. There is lots of room on my 32 GB card. I could literally install thousands of simple Flutter apps.

It's comparatively compact for the kind of functionality the runtime provides. You also get instantaneous startup thanks to AOT. Performance is great, too. My phone's calculator app is about 14 MB and the gallery is 10 MB in size.
