@MarkZeman @SpeedCurve Dang I was hoping someone in IKEA is proclaiming their love for webperf and you folks 😂

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

IKEA uses a screenshot of @SpeedCurve for their prop laptops in store and I wanna know who's the genius behind this

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@lukechesser @unsplash Wow talk about the best way to find out your product assumptions are correct!

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@taperdean @SpeedCurve lol I just never tweet 😂

[Matteo Collina @matteocollina]

The most important skill a software developer (and possibly just anybody) is how to convey technical topics with plain english. Make things simple to understand folks.

(A lot of folks in tech can’t really do this, and they see their career stuck)

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@resir014 lol got it, guess I'm screwed then 😂

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@resir014 Nngh that sucks.

Wait does that mean peeps with phones they bought overseas will be affected too?

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@kentaromiura Can confirm you did say this to me

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@buditanrim Ha I was wondering the same after chatting with a few friends there. Although I thought y'all gonna make that work somehow with more bots flying around!

Took some time updating my print-friendly resume site from using 2015 Gulp config to Parcel. Did not expect process to be so smooth.

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@resir014 Darn, rest in peace. Sad to hear this.

Why don’t bosses ever tell you why they want to talk

[Nicole Sullivan @nicolesullivan.bsky.social @stubbornella]

You can get all of these right and I, your friendly client side dev, can still bring the application to its knees. Nearly all of bundle size is node modules, we’ve got to rethink perf.

Medium sent an email to all contributors to Hacker Noon saying "Hacker Noon may appear to be an independent website, it is not. It is a container that exists on the https://t.co/oQhVpwhM1P infra, much like a Facebook page."

Medium is bullying the very curators it courted.

So @lyft is paying $8m/mo to @AWS -- almost $100m/yr! Each ride costs $.14 in AWS rent. I keep hearing they could build their own DC & save. My early days at @Google cloud, heard the same from customers: "at scale, owning is cheaper". It wasn't - they all came around. Here's why:

[Mark Dalgleish @markdalgleish]

I don't understand developers who say they don't care about design and just want designers to hand them a spec.

Bad design leads to bad code.

@Zizzamia Great insight! We are looking for ways to measure component render time so the trick works great. Somewhat concerned that it might not work if async rendering splits DOM updates to chunks in the future?

[Steven Sinatra @diagramatics]

@Zizzamia Oh wow, good stuff! It seems like I have the same conclusions about where to add the performance.mark calls on a React component then. The first paint is pretty neat, shame that we still have to rely on setTimeout to reliably get the next event loop :(
