You don't need to be relevant, just being accessible is enough reason for all sorts of bots, legit or sketchy, to shove hundreds of thousands of requests down your throat.

I know of Apache, but that seems to be falling out of favour lately.

lately? more like for the last 10 years afaict.

So are you Charles I or II?

Chrome and Firefox (probably others too) Devtools also have network simulators to test slow connection.

I guess another good example of that would be lobash. Assuming you're familiar with lodash, of course.

I guess it would be interesting if you re-wrote your website in PHP and wrote a blog post about it with the title 'Why I Moved From Ruby to PHP?'

It's also in the robots.txt file.

this one looks very retro but the code is actually quite modern. it has custom fonts, css animations, gradients, etc. and no tables.

Before uninstalling stylish, consider visiting its webstore page and rating it 1-star so that upcoming users know it's not a great extension.

You can see the same sarcastic wit in this talk too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jo_B4LTHi3I

It's still my favorite tech talk, very fun to watch.

But you have to eat, don't you?

After all, this isn't reddit, right? :)

What else is new?

Parakilas, 38, who now works as a product manager for Uber

a company known for their respect of privacy and exemplary business ethics. good that he left facebook.

Also, no need to put assets in a different domain anymore

It's even considered harmful since extra domains means extra dns lookups which could take quite a while.

Which is more beneficial in today's web: Serving static contents from a cookieless domain but two dns lookups vs. all contents from same domain, but one dns lookup?

Last.fm's artist radios are the things i miss the most related to music.

They don't work for me either. Most of the songs I like in these playlists are the songs I already listened to hundreds of times.

actually they still could use google docs, as it keeps revision history for every document automatically.

As a 1st gen. Moto G owner, i feel similar. I feel annoyed to be forced to get a new phone every two years. It was a much better experience to use Chrome and Spotify together with this phone in 2014. Now Spotify alone is freezing from time to time, especially after the latest update. Chrome was fast and responsive. Now it's guaranteed that if I open a web page in Chrome, any other app i might have open are killed and will have to be reloaded if i want to go back to them quick. I really like the phone and wish to use it for a while longer, but my experience is getting a bit worse each day.

This is what people have been telling since 2010. In the future with faster phones the difference will be negligible or something along these lines.

reminded me of a family guy episode where Carter Pewterschmidt gets scammed by Nigerians and flies to Nigeria to get his money back and eventually decides to donate the money as he sees the people there really need it, or something like that.

someone should also sue Apple (and Google?) for worse performance in the webview. something that run smoothly on native Safari was laggy in webview. haven't checked in a while though, not sure if this is still the case.

how about ilikedyoubeforeyouwerenakedontheinternet ?

no surprises there, Radiohead were always most scrobbled artist when i used the site actively. They probably still are.

i do that too but i'm pretty sure my browser and my isp send enough information to google to perfectly identify me.

The course provided by UON didn't have any programming assignments, so that could count as an important difference.

same thing happened with Opera 10. you were notified that your browser is 'too old'
