There's some things in 86 that are even more interesting imo, mainly FTP support is finally being removed. Crazy that something so integral to the early web is now not even worth supporting in the browser.

Headline is almost certainly clickbait. While yes chess is increasing in viewership, 4,313 average viewers is hardly taking over Twitch’s 15 million daily viewers. Chess is currently the 29th most popular game on Twitch: https://

The difference is the Quadro RTX 8000 is $5500 (vs the 3090’s $1500 price), and the Quadro has less than half of the CUDA cores that the 3090 does. You can buy two of the 3090’s for almost half the price of the Quadro and have 4x the proces

I think that’s a poor approach. While you end up with gaze more in the center of the display, you don’t always have a face directly centered. This alleviates some of the problem, but doesn’t remove it. A better approach that I’ve always wan

For sure, and that's a pretty cool feature of this library. Nonetheless they should be checking whether or not there are included templates/designs before generating the shadowroot. I put together a small demo of this in action:

Normally yes, but we have one major difference with Atlassian - our teams are split between SF and Sydney (for the most part, we have other offices but those are the major ones). Even before COVID we had a pretty strong remote culture. We w

It's more than one unnecessary level of nesting in the DOM, it's that they're creating an entirely separate DOM tree they aren't using. I threw together a test using tachometer to demonstrate the differences: https:&#x2

I love seeing a wider adoption of webcomponents, but I have some complaints about this library, mainly because they're really pushing the whole, "lightweight and low memory" lines. Take a look at the accordian component (the

I'm using a very similar design[1] for a reddit-esque clone I'm working on, but I'm actually about to move away from it. The column approach makes sense at first - it seems like a great way to view multiple streams of content

True, but the point of the article was to avoid centralized providers as you may inadvertently be shadowbanned. I have much more faith/trust in Github than Medium, but nonetheless it still suffers algorithmic approaches to content.

Another thing I would echo here is that you don't necessarily need a CMS / WYSIWYG editor to run a great blog. A tiny script that dynamically compiles your markdown flavour of choice and has a nginx reverse proxy in front of it wi

Nice work! The only advice I’d give is don’t use patterns like div.parentElement.parentElement.foo() It’s inflexible and will break if you ever make dom changes. Use the .closest() selector instead. It’s like a reverse .querySelect
