For most people it's a bit higher than 50%. If you got it down to 50%, congratulations, you outsmarted the algorithm.

Yes, they demo'd a component with an onClick callback that contained a 'use server' directive followed by serverside SQL query, right there in the onClick. So presumably that callback is automatically replaced at build time w

I’m probably missing something but if the bottleneck is disk read speed, wouldn’t it only take about 5-6 seconds to fill the entire 32GB memory from disk? I just googled and found a benchmark quoting 5,507 MB/s read on an M1 Max.

It sounds like you prefer that 'academic' style that rests heavily on browser defaults. I personally like that style too, it's not an uncommon preference for HN users. But you must realise it's very niche? Most users of

You suggest that a site owner should design the page how you want it, not how they want it. But neither is the case. Their task is to design it in a way that is acceptable for many different people. For most users, maximising the browser wi

OK, I'm not sure how that affects my point. The point is, I'm living proof you are wrong on this particular claim. Tailwind makes me faster, and it's not for any of the reasons you said could be the only reasons. The more gen

You claim that you can only move faster with Tailwind when one of these is true: when you don't care about 'badly structured' CSS, or when you are completely new to CSS, or when you don't care about reusable modules. I c

This article makes some bold, false claims. What is true is that Tailwind will generally result in a bigger stylesheet over the wire than if you hand-write CSS. That's a well understood trade-off, made in exchange for several benefits.

GPT-4V is a new model release, not an update to an existing model. You are free to wait till it is more mature before using it. Its availability doesn't suddenly introduce new risks for people using other models.

Third party browsers are forced to use a slower JavaScript engine than Safari. They also can't support extensions or PWA features.

Those instructions strongly imply "do anything". As for "I won't react", that's obvious from the first moment someone does something to her (like moving her arms) and she just goes along with it. From then on,

I’m interested to know if the curvy thing was just an aesthetic style that viewers enjoyed, or if it came out of some technical constraint. Like did sharp/straight-edged shapes tend to look more janky/jarring when animated?

There kind of is - there’s the extensions API. Extensions can add new tabs to the existing devtools (eg redux-devtools, react-devtools do this). Plus you could conceivably use content scripts and an extension page running in a popup wind
