I believe that some companies get blinded by new tech, get high on their own supply, and that can result in work that is destructive instead of restorative. — https://aftermath.site/true-lies-4k-uhd-blu-ray-james-cameron-peter-jackson-park-road-post
Is that a metaphor for the overuse of JavaScript frameworks/libraries where plain old HTML/CSS/JS would be much better?
Turbo Pascal is 40!

I created my first game with Turbo Pascal, back in 1986, thanks to TO7/70 computers available in my collège when I was in 3e (high school's 9th grade in the US).
The game was a lot like Flappy Bird! 😁
I wonder if MDN could add screenshots of the live examples, so people can see the result even if their browser doesn't support a feature yet.
For example for CSS Grid masonry layout:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_grid_layout/Masonry_layout
I'm using Firefox, so I had to activate the layout.css.grid-template-masonry-value.enabled flag to see the “good” result.
Let's say a SPA first load has been optimized with SSR and the LCP image is loaded pretty fast because it's in the HTML.
But the JavaScript then builds a carousel in the DOM, which initially shows the very same image.
I guess there's a second render of the image. How can I check this easily?
Would it make sense that the LCP takes the late second render of the image, instead of the fast first one?
I created a new page in my photography site to show some statistics about the settings used to shoot the photos I share there: apertures, focal lengths, ISOs, shutter speeds.

Do you think any other statistics could be interesting?
This is of course using #Eleventy 's collections and filters, based on photo data stored in Markdown files.
I love (some) boring #SpeedCurve graphs… 😅
This is so great that #CloudCannon is now sponsoring #Eleventy, and hiring @zachleat@zachleat.com as a Developer Advocate! 🥳

Who would have thought linking to another Web page was so difficult… 🤷♂️
Cloudflare in “Faster website, more customers: Cloudflare Observatory can help your business grow”:
The generated report provides an overall performance score ranging from 1 (least performant) to 99 (most performant)
First try on my photography site: 100 🤷♂️😅
Joke aside, new tools to audit performance are always welcome!
I'm really worried about #WebPageTest, right now… 🤨
