make taps 300ms faster with 1 line of CSS:

```#css
touch-action: manipulation;
```

means:
element doesn't want double-tap to zoom

result:
browser *immediately* responds to taps instead of waiting 300ms for a "potential" 2nd tap 🤓

Tiktok saved 14.3KB by upgrading to RxJS 7! (I didn't even know they used RxJS) It appears to be a react app. Super interesting!

I think if you make it a rule to always use attributes instead of classes to apply CSS to element states (not variants), you’ll force yourself to make your app more accessible (Similar to React Testing Library)

If you’re using CSS-in-JS this also helps create more static styles

You're in a panic.

Your launch date is in a week. Your whole team's credibility is riding on your collective ability to make it happen. Leadership is Eye-of-Sauron-ing this project.

There's just one problem.

You suspect the product sucks.

So... everyone seems to think clubhouse is the "next big thing" - but I think it's going to fail.

Learn once, write anything should be the tagline for React.

You can build:

Websites
Android apps
iOS apps
Windows apps
Desktop apps
Apple TV
Firefox TV
Android TV
Tizen / Tizen watch
Slide decks
Videos

What else am I missing?

“Why does {company/app} have more than X engineers?” where X typically greater than 20/50/100.

Here’s how and why this makes sense for *the company* from a business-point of view. A thread.

M1 mac is so fast I worry I'll be overly optimistic about the performance of my code

Not sure if I explained the difference between Server Side Rendering (SSR) and React Server Components well, so let me try again:

You know how Google can make the web significantly faster? Enforce perf requirements for ads, not for apps.

Disney is expecting 300M+ consumers to be on paid streaming services including Disney+ by 2024. This is possibly the greatest digital transformation story by an incumbent we'll ever witness.

Alright folks, gather round and let me tell you the story of (almost) the biggest engineering disaster I’ve ever had the misfortune of being involved in. It’s a tale of politics, architecture and the sunk cost fallacy [I’m drinking an Aberlour Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch]

This is the most exciting period for enterprise software that we’ve ever been in. Even amidst rapid adoption of modern cloud tools in recent years, 90% of the world’s knowledge workers are now getting them for the first time. We’re still in the early innings folks.

In 2008 Facebook’s user growth hit a wall at 80M and we were having serious debates about whether any social network could ever reach 100M users. 2 years later we had doubled our user base and not long after that we reached 1B users. Here’s how we did it:
