I disagree that as web engineers, our goal is to make websites faster. Our goal is to make a website that suits the customer's needs. Sometimes, that can even mean making a website slower. I've had that request before because end

The v1.0.0 was published the day a bug was fixed and yet the first sentence of this post is "Monocypher is ready for production". Sure, OpenSSL has bugfixes on regular basis as well, but I believe that further fragmenting the cryp

I don't know about ELB, EFS and ASG but: - S3 has a public protocol and many 3rd party providers support it (OpenIO, Scality, Ceph, Minio, etc), - EFS could be replaced with something like DRDB or GlusterFS, or DigitalOcean's bloc

What I've found to work well is to push images to your registry with a different tag for each release. For instance, you have "web:1.0" running in production and want to update? Create a "web:1.1" image, push it to

Sourcemaps have the drawback that you actually need to generate them first. Sometimes, getting all of the tooling together is teedious. And about the size: if the JS file is cached properly, downloading 1.5mb once doesn't seem like a h

How is this absurd? I've had problems debugging minified Javascript in production too. So from my point of view, this seems like an appropriate response.

The dependency "git-rev" uses a shell-call too, so this PR doesn't change much apart from removing the dependency itself. Here's the original code from the "git-rev" package: https://github.com/

To me, it looks like Kite miscommunicated but didn't propagate spyware. From what I understand after reading the related issue on Github, it did not do any requests to its servers without explicit user permission. And I think the bigge

For me, the point is that when we throw out a device because it's too expensive to repair, then we diminish our health, because we pollute our environment. It's hard to measure, like a lot of things, but we should not throw away a
