Make your own web site. It’s hard to take “developer” articles seriously if they’re published on a platform intended for non-developers.

External factors that trigger blinking are generally irritants and perceived dangers. You might find something to trigger blinking, but it would probably be one of those things, which would make your computer insanely user un-friendly.

Burn it all down. Just stop using JavaScript.

You probably won’t ever fully come to peace with it. All you can do is make use of the time you have. If you’re worried about wasting time on pointless things, keep in mind that worrying about stuff you can’t change may be the most pointles

Because the Reddit UI is an unusable mess. At least HN interface makes sense. Also, HN is crazy fast to load and doesn’t need JavaScript.

Do you drive your car at top speed every time you use it? Of course not. One would assume that, for both devices, the interface is as fast as it is designed to be for the task at hand, not necessarily as fast as the hardware can run it.

Urban sprawl is caused by bad city planning, not the inability to fly your car. If you add flying cars without fixing the planning, the city will just spread out even more, and you’ll end up with the same commute times. Exactly the same thi

To make a meaningful difference you’d have to add so much salt that swimming just wouldn’t be fun anymore. Never mind the utter infeasibility of it all in the first place: Add salt to lakes, kill every living thing in and around the lake, d
