I was just talking to a friend about a similar mental model. The way I see it a task falls into one of three buckets: easy problems, hard problems, and stupid problems. Easy problems are "hard work" and hard problems are an exact

I tried to do the same thing. On the first day back in the office I was venting to my manager about all the issues I had with working at the office (noise, smells, talkative coworkers) and I requested the ability to resume remote work. Late

Oh geese, I didn't realize that I forgot to add "on slow-3g". We usually aim for <1s FCP & <2s LCP. If it's ever above 5s on slow-3g we set aside time to optimize/refactor. Since our SPAs are offline-firs

I've spent the last 2 years building B2B SPAs and, like everything in software, they can be fast or slow depending on how you build the app and what tools you use. I usually leverage lit-html, esmodules, and the dynamic import syntax.

A huge thank you to Paweł Kuna and all the contributors. I paid for Font Awesome Pro for several years until I discovered Tabler now I use their icons exclusively and it's been great.
