I'm sure the front-end programmers you work with really pay attention to the size of their JS build /sarcasm

Correction: Sites are javascript heavy because it is easy to accidentally create javascript-heavy sites, and the programmers who do this also do not care that they have done it.

I agree with this. I do wonder if low/no-code products will ever become good enough that you'd feel comfortable actually using one. I believe a part of this is having infrastructure/system that can describe itself in sufficie

Excel is spreadsheet application. It is not related to the parent post, which discusses networked CRUD application, with various integration points, DB, caching, redundant deployments, etc..

The point I made is more nuanced than that. I didn't say there is a large financial barrier to entry for the production of a modern website. The point is, Delicious, Digg, etc. would fizzle out today pretty quickly. Consumers have come

Digg was massive right at the tail end of seeker-net. I myself watched nearly every episode of Diggnation. Great times.

Now with the idear of delicious coming back, your comment makes me consider all the good low-to-mid scale shit we've lost over time. In ~ 2008 it seems like there were just more fun/interesting sites around. Maybe I was just in an

The great thing about subscribing to HN via RSS is that you can see all the content that made it to the front page (as this post did), and was subsequently censored by leftist definitely-not-fascists

Except that Nim doesn't allow double-underscores, which show up from time to time in C. Compiling var my__thing = 10 yields: Error: invalid token: trailing underscore Which is actually my biggest complaint about Nim. The error messagin

Of course, you're wrong. In general, fascism distinguishes itself for its intolerance of political opponents, suppression of freedom of speech, and lack of respect for the democratic principles of a majority vote as well as exclusion o

As far as I understand "loot boxes" I don't think they qualify as gambling. At least not any more than buying a pack of Pokemon cards in the 90s.
