For one thing, GDPR. It's illegal. Apps can also be configured to prohibit (or at least make it harder make) screenshots/screen-recordings. It can of course be circumvented, but still. It's illegal. I would consider it as saf

I'd say JXL Medium is slightly better than WebP Small - compare e.g. the racket, face, and left hand. But it's also slightly worse than WepB Medium, e.g. with the corner of her mouth.

Ah yes, of course. I was thinking with a perspective of a user who has full control of the site, as they are the owner too. The cache-key idea would only work if the user themselves could specify it for every resource.

This is quite interesting. I didn't know this was a thing. A primary issue, as I see it, is caching of third-party assets (as dmkil posted elsewhere, think jQuery, Google Fonts, Facebook Pixel, etc). Could this not be solved using the

That's interesting. Just so I understand it correctly: * The iframe loads resources, e.g. /static/bundle.js and /public/index.css (does this include user-defined resources?). * But due to the iframe being embedded o

If a company chose to fire me for that, I would not want to work at that company anyhow. I know this is somewhat naive; not everyone is in a position where they can pick and choose what companies they wish to work at. But still, such a comp

Roqc is a fantastic name, hope they go with that.

I go with a) every time. I would find anything else to be unprofessional. I don't "effectively suck", I disagree with them on the timing. I'll explain my reasoning, and if they cannot accept that, then it's out of m

actix-web seems really interesting, just from some cursory reading. Also, from a performance standpoint, it seems to be _really_ good: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/ This example in particular piqued my intere

They do? I was under the impression that they don't. I specifically remember submitting an app, and getting denied. The response we got was relatively vague, saying it was breaking ToS. No screenshots, no call or anything of the sort.

As a developer, I found Figma to be amazing, but that may be due to the designer I worked with. At a previous job, I would just get PNGs or PDFs of some design, and I had to try to implement it. Often ended up with inflexible, hard-coded sh

This made me laugh a couple of times. Pretty good :) Really well written. Unique responses to many (I thought) relatively unknown songs and artists. The final score, a rambling "BAD" rating, was very funny. Great job!

> why not build that tunnel in a big city The Faroe Islands are _tiny_. Land area of about 1,399km² Just a little bit larger than New York City, which is 1212km². Long Island, NY more than twice as big.

You used to have to take a large detour to get to Klaksvík - which is the second largest town - from Tórshavn (the capital). By taking the tunnel, you shave off 27 minutes. Travel time to almost all of the north-eastern islands, and the tow

No, not as far as I can tell. It's just an MP3. I guess the DRM requirement is site-wide or something.

If we're playing the small-gripes-game, well at least yours is actually listed! Unlike the Faroe Islands, which are frequently missing. Okay not that much these days, but it still happens sometimes! I could probably pick Denmark instea

Fantastic! I'm really looking forward to trying this out. Great to see them put effort into supporting Linux.
