Weird, I'm in Foster City and felt the strongest shaking I've ever felt in my time in the Bay Area.

Another potential approach could be using the Web Animations API with an additive/relative animation approach via the `composite: 'add'` option. I say potential as it really only fully works in Chrome atm — Firefox has it but

The community of people making deepfakes even approaching this quality is astonishingly small (think 3-4 people), requires absurd hardware (either A100s or A6000s), and the Luke one is even more of a outlier as this deepfaker has the suppor

In the case of the MotionMark benchmark (more graphics/rendering focused), I have Safari beating Chrome's score by more than double (2703 vs 1152) on my M1 Max machine. Now I don't think Safari is 2x as fast as Chrome per se

The correct way would be a mix of those two strategies: an onscroll handler that schedules an update through requestAnimationFrame (ensuring that it only gets scheduled once until the next frame update actually executes).

Since installing the iOS 13 beta I've noticed a bunch of apps asking for bluetooth access. I haven't kept track of every one but I do remember YouTube and Netflix asking for it on their first launch. Thankfully, I haven't wit

FWIW I believe that web worker adoption is more limited by tooling/knowledge than APIs. Web developers haven't thought about thread safety for decades (at least for those who have been around for that long) so it's more of a

When I decided to take a stab at something similar, I settled on a different approach in taking an existing asynchronous UI architecture, React Native, instead of just trying to proxy the DOM: https://github.com/vincentrieme

I took AP Computer Science A in 2010 and while I'd agree that it was hardly a thorough curriculum, it did give me the knowledge to successfully skip Comp Sci 1 in college. My case was slightly unique though in that we had probably the

There's nothing really stopping anyone from implementing the human interface guidelines into a UI library. I wonder what's keeping people from building one.

Chrome (and the web platform in general) has been moving to this model of features/APIs needing to be called "as a result of a user interaction". This sounds reasonable in theory, but like I recently realized, chrome cannot d

As an avid developer of SPAs (currently working on one for my own blog frontend) I'd say a lot if this stems from people being convinced SPAs 1) provide a faster development cycle, 2) they believe that they've offloaded all need f

I had held off getting tested for ADHD because I was convinced I was just lazy and didn't like schoolwork but once I noticed I couldn't play a single videogame for more than 15 minutes at a time and had to do something else, I got

Maybe I just can't find it, but the largest blocker for using Rust on the web for me is a lack of a exposure/binding system (like embind). I'm not particularly interested in writing entire webapps in Rust but I do see it bein

Heh this would just completely break one of my current projects (not using `fixed` for headers I swear). It's interesting to think about people out there using things like this.

In my personal/anecdotal experience, I've noticed a higher performance ceiling using HTML/CSS over SVG. Doing similar operations between the two usually shows SVG with better performance but if you are willing to put in the e

From what I understand, the twitter mobile web client uses react and from a quick look at the source, they're using css modules which means the class names are generated at build time. Considering that most ad blockers work by identify

React Native doesn't make it so you share UI code between platforms ( https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/platform-specif... ). What you get to share is all the business logic between tailored UIs.

This is awesome! Now if only there was a web-protocol for syncing the audio clocks of two webapps I could really jam out with this and (shameless plug) http://io808.com together.

Don't really think PageSpeed score really accurately reflects page loading speed (maybe initial page loading speed). It seems to not really care about lazy loaded resources as one of my JS heavy webapps I made (around 200KB) actually s

Thanks for the feedback. My goal for this project was to make a recreation (maybe homage is a better word) completely in the browser. Also I was of the opinion that if I made this sample based the page size would skyrocket and I don'

Happy 808 day HN! As an amateur/bedroom music producer I've always been fascinated with the impact and history of the TR-808. While trying to learn the new Web Audio API I attempted to try and recreate a few of the sounds by refer
