I would say server push is the main selling feature. It allows you send the assets together with the first request in order to save a few roundtrips. It however took years for the major browser to implement it properly eg. Not re-downloadin

How does NDRI affect code quality? I write bad code when I am tired, but does not notice it until weeks later when I read the although working but buggy code that makes little sense. So I wonder if NDRI will just make me feel more awake and
