If you have this kind of revenue, you don't approach anyone, they approach you.

I tried downloading this for MacOS Silicon and was told the dmg was damaged :/ Guess I'll wait a little bit for things to iron out.
chrisabrams commented on How Google handles JavaScript throughout the indexing process vercel.com/blog/how-googl... · Posted by u/ea016
I work for a company that enables businesses to drop eCommerce into their websites. When I started, this was done via a script that embedded an iFrame. This wasn't great for SEO, and some competitors started popping up with SEO-optimized products.
Since our core technology is a React app, I realized that we could just mount the React app directly on any path at the customer's domain. I won't get into the exact implementation, but it worked, and our customers' product pages started being indexed just fine. We even ranked competitively with the upstarts who used server-side rendering. We had a prototype in a few months, and then a few months after that we had the version that scaled to 100s of customers.
We then decided to build a new version of our product on Remix (SSR framework similar to nextjs). It required us to basically start over from scratch since most of our technologies weren't compatible with Remix. 2 years later, we still aren't quite done. When all is said and done, I'm really curious to see how this new product SEOs compared to the existing one.
Given that your Remix version has been ~2 years in development by X number of developers, what are the other expected outcomes? It sounds like potential SEO performance is unknown? Is the development team happy with the choice? I can't recall working somewhere that allowed us to work on a project for two years and not release to production, how did you get business buy in?

I'm currently interviewing with Meta, but the process is amazingly slow:
- early June: a Meta employee submits my referral
- mid June: talk to Meta recruiter
- late July: screening interview with hiring manager
- mid August: still scheduling an interview-planning meeting with the hand-off recruiter.
I'm guessing that on their side, either the recruiters are super busy, or there's no sense of urgency.
Maybe a blessing in disguise, since it gives me more time to work on their coding-practice problems. Which are great, btw.
It's possible that candidates are getting shuffled around, as some of the Meta recruiters themselves have been laid off. I know multiple people that were/are in the Meta process that this happened to. Takes a few weeks for the new recruiter to go through their double/triple work load of candidates and schedule.
chrisabrams commented on US Job Market Clues Seen in Drop in Employee Hours Worked bloomberg.com/news/articl... · Posted by u/pg_1234
I worked for a place which allowed a high amount of “leave without pay”.
There was a limit based on years with the company but a new employee got 3 weeks paid leave and up to 9 weeks unpaid. You pay the company the unpaid time x salary and then they give it back to you when you use it.
It worked out pretty well so if I was sick I could take the day off or if a coworker was sick and came to work, I could leave. I tend to keep a cold twice as long as other people.
I was able to take 3 one month vacations or every Friday off for a long time or somewhere in between.
What would happen if you paid for unpaid leave and didn’t use it?

The verbosity comes because they are demonstrating both how to write the library code to support the feature, and how to consume it. But in reality a lot of the time someone else will have written the library code for you.
In this (still contrived) example, we end up having to do nested try/finally blocks.
Before:
let totalSize = 0;
let fileListHandle;
try {
fileListHandle = await open("file-list.txt", "r");
for await (const line of fileListHandle.readLines()) {
let lineFileHandle;
try {
lineFileHandle = await open(lineFileHandle, "r");
totalSize += await lineFileHandle.read().bytesRead;
} finally {
await lineFileHandle?.close();
}
}
} finally {
await fileListHandle?.close();
}
console.log(totalSize);
let totalSize = 0;
try {
await using fileListHandle = getFileHandle("file-list.txt", "r");
for await (const line of fileListHandle.readLines()) {
await using lineFileHandle = getFileHandle(lineFileHandle, "r");
totalSize += await lineFileHandle.read().bytesRead;
}
}
console.log(totalSize);Thank you for this example; it wasn't clear to me reading the article, but this is the main problem I was hope being solved. Will make writing tests much smoother.
chrisabrams commented on Deno 1.34: Deno compile supports NPM packages deno.com/blog/v1.34... · Posted by u/unripe_syntax
I'm very happy with the direction Deno is taking in its development. At the same time, I'm not sure when I would feel comfortable deploying something to production with it. Is anyone here running Deno in production?
I have a small Deno powered bot that generates Shopify listings from some inputs. It’s been running for a few months with no crashes or restarts.
I think it really comes down to what APIs or packages you need. I have had trouble with projects such as Prisma and wouldn’t do that in production as the generated output is slightly different for some reason (haven’t had time to inspect).
Having said all this: nobody should be using crypto/fips140 unless they know specifically why they're doing that. Even in its 140-3 incarnation, FIPS 140 is mostly a genuflection to FedGov idiosyncrasies.
What should folks use then?
