It seems pretty obviously bunk. Cell phone usage went from ~0% to 100% over the course of a couple decades. If they were a significant health risk the impact would have been obvious.

And rejected it because it was a nightmare of security issues and poor performance. The idea isn't bad. The implementation was.

>Htmx advantage is not that it sends less bytes, but that it effectively removes frontend. Right, which you can achieve by replacing the main content div. HTMX takes it many steps further and allows you to slice the HTML up into small b

This page illustrates why I just don't get HTMX. It seems like a ton of effort to save not a lot of server cycles and html over the wire. I've done tabbed UIs that worked like HTMX. But instead of trying to do div surgery it repl

Eh, suggestions from more senior people are in practice instructions. The risk in ignoring them is that something comes back to bite you and you look like an idiot for not following the suggestion of the senior.

I haven't seen official numbers. My point is that it needs higher resolution than a monitor to match the experience.

by treis 3y ago
This isn't how any of this works. It doesn't matter how little of an area of the monitor your focusing on. You still need to generate an equivalent DPI over that area in the headset to match the monitor. Which you can't do

It's really just math. You can't simulate a 3840 x 2160 screen with a 1920 x 1920 headset. So until the headsets get more resolution than monitors the monitors will look better. Especially for text.

That's not true. Provo, as an example, spent 50 millions on their fiber before selling it to Google for $1.

Why should I write my own HTML and CSS over using what Bootstrap gives me? I can't think of a single reason to believe that my HTML/CSS will look or perform better than Bootstrap's. Especially since you can selectively impor

Three things I think: (1) Unstyled HTML looks terrible. (2) There's relatively few native components and the ones that exist are limited. Like not even what JQueryUI gave you 15 years ago limited. No cards, accordions, avatars, and

Covered is stretching it. Most raw HTML elements look terrible and wouldn't pass muster with pretty much anyone. IMHO, this is a big miss with browsers. Sites look awful without styling and you have to be pretty good with CSS to even

Energy efficiency is a big one. You'll make back the new fridge cost in 5ish years over a 20-30 year old fridge. Depends a lot on local energy prices and if it's a garage fridge.
