QuickJS is about 200kb as well and has similar performance to Lua, it's not about the language itself. V8 performance is closer to C in some areas.

Not sure what your point is? Chrome for example is much smaller on Mac than other platforms. And it's not about absolute size, but compared to Chrome/Electron you'd expect a fresh modern codebase to be somewhat slimmer and fa

I don't know.. Servo has been in development for a decade and still has quite underwhelming performance and UX. The binary is 100MB+ on Mac, scrolling is janky, a google image search takes 10+ seconds to render and goes through very bu

In the european school holiday season, gas stations can also build up long queues, it's not exclusively an EV problem, though slow charging cars can compound the issue. Most people travel by plane or train anyway [1]. Every EV route pl

Even if that was true in the past, it has been many years since companies in China can actually do a better job at design than their western counterparts. And engineering, and manufacturing. They also hired a ton of european designers for t

Fuel efficiency on an ICE can drop up to 30% after 10 years... the end result is the same. But that's not on anyone's mind when buying a used car.

Oh, you're in for a surprise. An ID.7, the updated Model 3, Ford Explorer/Capri, plus all the ones you don't have in the US - Nio, Zeekr, BYD, Renault, Skoda, Volvo, Cupra - are significantly better than the EVs of five years

Saying hooks is "seven years old" is just being pedantic. I worked on a major project in 2019 where making the decision to use hooks was a huge leap of faith. It did not become the default way of writing React code until 2020&#x2F

How do other editors handle this in your experience? I’m pretty sure VSCode behaves exactly the same, with the addition of a manual “merge” editor when you try to save, but never shows changes live for a modified file. Changes to open files

When using these computers for work all day, the last thing you want is to 'just mix it up a bit'. Some parts do look nice, but the idea of having transparency, blur and distortion everywhere really is a design nightmare.

Wow, I balked at the price initially, but it actually seems cheap after learning they are hand painted, that's amazing. I can easily imagine there are people willing to pay a lot more for these. Some earnest and unsolicited feedback
