It wasn't really faster. The OP actually touched on that point, but let me repeat it without ambiguity: An actual parser for the complex use-cases requires some custom code and isn't covered by what Kimono does. What Kimono does c

Because then it would seem that modern app developers are actually competent, and that's not the author's intent.

Looking at the other posts in the blog, it's definitely Go biased. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing. But it's making some seriously tenuous assumptions about "modern app developers". It's almost "Goof

You say that, but much has changed in the past 10 years. If it truly were "up to enterprises", we wouldn't be using Git in the first place.

Oh, the classic "HR" response. "We're very busy here". Well, if they truly have "more imporant things to do than address community ire", then this also means that they agree to take the community's ir

If we listen to you, it would seem that SC is both blameless, and - in fact - not in trouble at all. And that's all fine and well. It sounds plausible. But it seems like every company is "blameless, and things are actually going

Companies that don't satisfy their investors' expectations... they often resort to moves of desperation. And those moves are more often than not anti-consumer and even anti-business.

Yeah, but they used "React.js, because we're cool, please think we're cool". Which is different from just "react.js". Just look at how incompetently the site was redesigned: https://github.com/r

Your logic involves quite a few jumps to conclusions that aren't remotely proven by the contents of the paper.

Are we still pretending that it's impossible to write portable shell code? Ok, then. Maybe it is in the general case, but this... really isn't "the general case".

Sadly, you are wrong. 4 years of computer usage is not nearly enough to be prepared to be a programmer.

Every page weighs 4+MB, because the page-specific content on the page weighs more than 4MB. There's almost 1MB of "CSS + JS + HTML", but about 4MB of video.

It should "be optimized for mobile". 4MB per page is anything but. If you visit 100 pages per day, you'd need a 12GB data plan.

"This kills the 3G data plan". At least with "the optimized for mobile" version, preloading should not happen. And it definitely shouldn't happen twice for the same video.
