Have you done new benchmarks since Cloudflare announced their latest round of performance improvements for Workers?

Just curious if this workload also saw some of the same improvements (on a quick read it seems like you could have been hitting the routing problem CF mentions)

Speaking of `JSON` functions that can have drastic performance differences, V8 blog[0] recently had a post about improving `JSON.stringify` performance when you don't pass a `replacer` function. Some of the most used functions with performance pitfalls that are easy to trip into.

My understanding the "three doses" is referring to the 5, 10, 15 mL amounts not 3 doses a day. Later on it says that the amount itself didn't seem to have as much of an effect as dose + time did.

Its interesting the contrast between HN and X [0] as far as the sentiment goes on this change. On HN seems mainly in favor of this change while on X everyone is mainly against it.

Personally, I'm glad I haven't built something on PS Hobby that I have to migrate but I do think its fair to charge for your product.

As a former student that competed in both National and State TSA events from 2006 to 2012 (and won multiple trophies across events including the "webmaster" competition) I'm not really surprised by this outcome. That doesn't mean that its the right outcome but just a result of how these competitions are run.

The judges are all volunteers that may or may not have a background in the actual event they are there to grade. So you get someone that just shows up, reads the rules for the event and then judges accordingly to those exact rules. Which in this case since the website is hosted by Github it automatically gets disqualified for not meeting the rules of the event. This is a pretty easy thing to fix which is either A) Just have a custom domain that hides the github hostname B) host it somewhere else. The students here seem to have taken the B approach and have it up on netlify now.

I certainly empathize with the students here putting hard work into a project only to get disqualified on a technicality, it is a hard lesson to learn and one around maximizing your results within the rules as long as you follow all the rules. Hopefully they will be successful in getting the rules updated moving forward to be more clear about the default github page templates vs just raw HTML hosting.

It's funny to read this now given I was a mod on RuneLocus during what I would consider RSPS's heyday (2006-2012ish range). It felt like the scene died off a bit especially when Jagex finally brought back OSRS in 2013.

That said it doesn't surprise me that certain servers have continued to grow and thrive over the years.

It was noteworthy change for me as I was considering PS for a new project but was a bit weary of the read limit and unwittingly hitting it. Now with the bigger numbers I feel that I have less to worry about and could just dive in.

And since as you mentioned from the post its a popular complaint so I figured others might be interested in this change as well.

Do you mean move an issue from one repository to another? Because that is totally possible now.

Any thoughts on a self hosted version? (I didn't look too closely at all the marketing stuff if this is already addressed)

Would be nice to put something like this up behind our own VPN auth etc

You can say "Hey Google" now which I find much easier to say. Would be nice if you could rename it though.

Perhaps changing offline files to offline data (files) as just "offline files" is pretty ambiguous of what is supported (and how I arrived at file system)

Reading the headline I clicked this thinking it might give you an API for your file system and I had thoughts of managing / viewing my files via an API.

Shopify went down so all of those storefronts were down.

Crytek is living a second life as Amazon's Lumberyard (though they say they have revamped the vast majority of the code)

True, though given its relatively easy to support you could get some savings in the few cases that do use it.

Also if they own some/all of the SDK's that are used for hitting their API they could bake in brotli compression at that level.

You could also look into using brotli compression over gzip for some more savings of bytes over the wire.

Something very similar that I've used in the past https://github.com/notwaldorf/tiny-care-terminal

Well the are already phasing out custom subreddit CSS so I don't think it will be part of the new design.

Seems like a few of these user recorders are popping up. Another alternative is FullStory https://fullstory.com/

One of my favorite things about the Wallet Card was the design. Having a clean front that always surprised people that haven't seen one before. I'd always get comments on it and asked if I worked at Google haha

Looks like this shows the last project you looked at before heading to the contact page. I refreshed the leaf repo and then refreshed the contact page and it mentioned the leaf project at the top.

HubSpot's CRM is made just for this use case. Plus its free! - http://www.hubspot.com/crm

Disclosure: I work at HubSpot

Interesting that now when you to go to http://www.homeaglow.com/ you get a Heroku app not found error message.

Only suggestion would be being able to turn off the sound. Very fun tho!

How often do you fund people on their secondary ideas compared to the main idea people apply with?

CSS could be explained with the idea that a lot of the pushes could be small little fixes and tweaks.

The user agent string is just a convoluted mess because websites started displaying content based on that string so newer browsers had to fake it so they would still work with these websites. User agents don't mean much nowadays because of this.

When I was on Co-op in Boston at a late stage start up my usual schedule looked like

10:15 am - 10:45 am - Take red line to MIT/Kendall

10:45 am - 11am - Walk 1 mile to the office (Could also take the green line and walk a few steps but I enjoy the walk)

11am - 12:30pm - Email, push some more code, go over pull requests

12:30pm - 1pm - Lunch with co workers maybe longer if its a team lunch

1 pm - 2:30pm - code code code

I would also play lacrosse on Wednesdays which changes the whole end of my day.

Thanks for the tip this is exactly what I had to do to get the latest firmware upgrade with the patch.

One thing I have noticed with FB Messages is that if you have a lot of messages (about 410k messages over the span of 3-4 years) its really hard / impossible to actually get all the messages back to the beginning. When I try to download my FB data it actually just leaves the conversation blank with 0 messages. (In the past it would dump everything it could get leaving it incomplete). I have also tried getting the messages via the Graph API but have hit the same limits that after x time it would just timeout and not get any messages. Which really sucks because I wanted to do some analysis and archiving of the messages.
