I found the source code Jade was referring to, and it looks like the author just noticed this thread: https://github.com/nkuntz1934/matrix-workers/commit/0823b47c...

My ability to recall and express things that I have learned is different when writing versus speaking. I suspect this is true for others as well.
I would prefer to write responses to textual questions rather than respond verbally to spoken questions in most cases.

Doesn't work without Javascript?
Correct, all the filtering is done locally in the browser, and the deploy is purely static.
If PSA had let me use affiliate links, I was planning to do the work to SSR in a Cloudflare Worker, but they declined and I decided to call the project where it was.

The site is indeed instant, those performance tricks does work (inline everything, botli compression, cache, edge network like cdn), BUT the site is also completely empty, it shows nothing except a placeholder.
Things can easily change when you start adding functionalities. One site I like to visit to remind myself of how fast usable websites can be, is Dlangs forum. I just navigate around to get the experience.
I made a fast usable product page recently https://www.buyadagger.com/
People believing it says something about the start menu
hey, haven't seen that one in the wild for a little bit :-D https://www.smbc-comics.com/comic/aaaah

What does your (dubious) example have to do with the quality of post-secondary education? If it has any relevance, it's for the quality of secondary education.
If the college would accept someone like that, they probably don't aim to take their students to a very high level.

I'm feeling generous tonight, I'm willing to consider 0.99986 to round to 99.99%
TehShrike commented on React is winning by default and slowing innovation lorenstew.art/blog/react-... · Posted by u/dbushell
Web components are the way out of this trap. Every single framework that isn't React should be wholeheartedly supporting web components to make sure that they have access to a viable ecosystem of components and utilities without having to bootstrap an entire competitor to React and it's ecosystem.
While a lot of people view web components as competitors to frameworks, they don't really have to be. The just define an interface between component implementations and browsers so enable interop and reliable composition.
On top of the low-level APIs frameworks have a lot of room to innovate and customize:
- There is a huge range of possibilities an opinions on how to author components. Buildless, JSX, template literals, custom syntaxes and compilers, class-based, functional, etc.
- There is a lot room for gluing components together in different ways: custom component loaders, context protocols, SSR, suspense-like utilities, styling and theming frameworks, etc.
- State management cuts across the UI independently from components and has a lot of room for innovation.
Being able to say "Use our new Flugle framework, it works great with all the other frameworks and adds awesome scaffolding" should be a nice selling point and buffer against React monoculture, as opposed to building a different and much smaller silo.
I worked on a business app made with lit web components and all properties being stringly typed was a real drag. It didn't compare to a realtime-first component library.
One of the reasons I value SetApp so much for Mac apps is that it's curated and I don't have to worry about filtering a bunch of shady or low-quality apps.
