This series is the best piece of long-form writing about web performance I've seen in a very long time
I’ve started writing about what I’ve been up to the last 2 years: dev.to/tigt/making-the-world…

The whole series is worth your time. It mirrors the exact same ways I've seen dozens of team light bales of $100 bills on fire and fail users in the name of "DX".
In part 5, I finally show off how fast the damn thing was: dev.to/tigt/so-what-c8j

SQL is special here. It's an API to your data that makes ad-hoc bulk data processing extremely easy. It is built in by design. But then I see folks naively use the repository pattern (or other similar "convenience" patterns) like this: stackoverflow.com/a/72490121…

Today, after over 5 years of work, HTTP/3 was finally standardized as RFC 9114! rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9114.h… Together with RFC 9204 (QPACK header compression) and RFC 9218 (Extensible Priorities) it ushers in an important new chapter for the Web! Proud to have been part of this!

HTTP is now a full Internet Standard (STD 97, 98, 99) and prepared for another 30 years of evolution. If you want to see what has changed, check out the history at github.com/httpwg/http-core

»Die mediale Aufmerksamkeit ist gleich Null« stimmt doch einfach nicht, warum schreibt man das?
Überfüllte Züge zeigen übrigens, dass bezahlbarer ÖPNV attraktiv ist und man ihn ausbauen sollte. Überfüllte Züge zeigen, dass das 9-Euro-Ticket vielen Mobilität erlaubt. Überfüllte Züge zeigen, dass das 9-Euro-Ticket richtig ist. Und nicht das Gegenteil.

Es ist schon sehr bemerkenswert, dass wir 90% der Probleme, die wir aktuell haben, nicht hätten, wenn wir seit 1998 Deutschland einfach konsequent auf erneuerbare Energien umgestellt und den öffentlichen Nah- und Fernverkehr massiv ausgebaut hätten.

Pretty much every link is suspicious, so that’s not a strategy that can work unless you stop using the Internet

Corporate Infosec sends a phishing test email, I click, and somehow I'm the asshole because "[I] failed the test; had this been real it would have destroyed the company network"? If me clicking can destroy the network, I'm not the one in this conversation who sucks at their job.

Great list. Personally, I slightly disagree on 8 and 9 (I like to use animations for diagrams and create slides in parallel), but completely agree with the rest

Or just start by collecting questions/topic suggestions, let people vote, and then just talk until time is up

Yeah, this neatly captures part of my distaste of Calendly. It's like you're saying, "I can't be bothered to find a time to meet with you, YOU do it." I recognize the flip side perspective--that you want to give me the choice of when--but it still rankles.
It may be that I'm just old, but if you want a meeting with me, as efficient as it may be, don't send me your Calendly link to find a spot. It's you that wants the meeting. Not me.
