Do you have examples of slower code generated by typescript? TS is a superset of JS so it changing anything that has a large performance impact seems odd, but maybe I’m missing something here. The types aren’t even available at runtime, what’s the biggest slow down you’ve seen?
Tauri does this as well, I use it for https://github.com/Ell/shortmon and get ~1-2 meg binaries with a react based ui
People have pirated MMO backends since.. well a long time, mainly KMMO servers. Lineage 2 and Ragnarok Online had big servers running on leaked / hacked official server code for a really long time before emulators became more practical to update with more recent game content.
Used extensively by Mullvad VPN for a lot of their infrastructure

I think you understand wrong. https://nodejs.org/api/debugger.html Combined with chrome dev tools or an ide of your choice has been some of the best tooling I’ve used in any programming language
It's actually easier than ever nowadays. Do a quick search on archive.org and you'd be surprised on what you can find.
Are you saying that people playing video games are more energy intensive than literal warehouses full of GPU's running 24/7 mining ethereum? Nobody talks about that because it's a horrible comparison.
Cool, yet another created in a vacuum CRDT, GUI, and text editor implementation written in rust.
This one is even worse because theres no actual examples or code
Hope the devs have fun writing this though! Rust is very enjoyable to work in
You can solve 1k captchas for $1 at 80% success, they're trivial to bypass
cobol (on mainframes, no clue if this applies elsewhere) is more than just a langauge, its a whole stack and set of tools for writing terminal UI programs basically that take inputs and do a lot of processing based on said inputs. You can easily run into cobol code that assumes (rightfully so in most cases) that people will be nice and not do bad inputs or try to do the equivalent of sqli. the attitude around safe and secure code just wasnt there when a lot of the cobol codebases ive ran into were initially written
That applies if youre shipping a giant 15 meg blob of js (not saying some sites dont do this), a lot of the size also comes from css and other assets which still apply with shipping a wasm blob. I'm gonna guess that v8 can parse a 1-2 meg js file just as fast if not faster than the time it takes to download a 15 meg wasm blob or a 4 meg blob + decompress + parse outputted from golang. Like your last line says, shipping 15 megs of any kind of code makes no sense to me
A web app cant take advantage of native desktop UI patterns (file dialogues, tray, system menus) and APIs (native file handling, win32 access, sockets, etc etc) like electron. Electron apps are desktop apps.
People have been embedding webuis in crap forever and this is nothing new, except that chrome is a way better target to do so instead of old unupdated things like Qt webview and the like. See for example, steam which is just a web browser with some native ui around it.
What's broken in node.js's design? Most new trading apps out there are also build on electron, or worse yet, some really gross java desktop ui thats even slower and eats up way more ram.
All of what you said is fud and unsubstantiated.
This doesn’t bypass cert pinning in apps which was the original question
the link goes straight to the source code... why not just look at it instead of guessing
completely different take on generative art, did you look at any of the examples in the interview or read it? It's not a contest around tech, its a conversation around tools and using them to express yourself
webpack AND all the extra plugins and preprocessing and postprocessing CRA adds -- its not a small webpack setup by any means and you can get 1s build times with webpack pretty easily without CRA
yes
Neat! If you're ever interested in more of that kind of stuff check out Hainbach, heres a similar thing to what you described with some really great background info on the technique and tech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVy9ABT5-iY
For sure, dont mean to argue that point at all. I'm just saying the interface of swiftui is very much observables + a react like component setup, its pretty neat to see something like that coming from Apple
Have you used react at all? Check out react + rxjs for a similar experience, add some typescript on top and it becomes even better!
What does typescript have to do with speed?
Cool! I went ahead and added category sorting last night to twitchroulette, check out the "unknown" filter to randomly browse through streams with no category set. Theres some weird stuff in there for sure (and quite a few pirated movie streams)
this was an issue with firefox and I pushed a css fix, sorry about that
Done, thanks!
Sorry this took so long, added this fix, as well as basic filters. Thanks again for the help!
just a normal cheap digital ocean vps running python + starlette and redis as a data backend, nothing fancy at all
Neat! I've had this idea in my head for a while but could never find a good way to get the data in a way I wanted it. Really neat app though, good work
beautiful, thank you. I think this is the same css issue around twitch's embed iframe that someone else reported earlier. I'll try to get a fix up after I get off work today. Thanks for checking it out!
