Re:Yes, no (built-in) AI is now a feature – LibreOffice blog on Thursday September 03, 2026 @03:14PM (#49555188)
I don’t understand this stance. On the technical side, we currently have all the standard protocols and maturity to build an integration that meets the listed requirements.

Only right owners can report websites, the Piracy Shield is essentially a tool in the hands of “Serie A Soccer League” and DAZN.
it charges you to use the platform features that enable your use of self-hosted runners
Re:You Don't Need Animations on Friday September 05, 2025 @01:50PM (#45141435)
The "perception of speed" argument reminded me of when I was asked to add spinners and animations to a web app I was building, because without them the UI would have felt too fast and fake.
Re:Lit: a library for building fast, lightweight web components on Wednesday September 03, 2025 @03:52AM (#45113285)
I have been using Lit in production for 3 years now. I think it is the best abstraction over the web components API out there.

I think node has a better tooling and ecosystem right now. Astral is doing a great job to reduce the gap.

The GDPR always applies regardless of whether a company is profitable or not. But it covers only personal data/sensible data, not "all data".
Re:What We Lost with PHP and jQuery on Sunday June 01, 2025 @12:49PM (#44152190)
I think this is just nostalgia, in the past decade I worked on several web apps, with lot of interactions and real time data (online auctions, live sport scores, customer support) and using jQuery (or even Angular.js) for this purpose was awful, because you had to reinvent state management and think about rendering performance.

You don’t understand the tools we have now, probably you are not the target and you can still use PHP + jQuery.

And is false that they weren’t package managers: the de-facto standard was Bower, used in combo with Grunt as task manager, with a Ruby toolchain that included LESS most of the type to preprocess styles.

I would be curious to know the performance using node.js as runtime, given that at the moment there is no evidence that bun on a real application offers better performance

Re:Next.js 14 on Thursday October 26, 2023 @03:42PM (#38030768)
I believe that many people who criticize Next.js or consider it difficult have not understood what the RSCs are for and how they work

It's a paradigm shift compared to the old way of thinking about React apps

In my company we've been using Next.js in production for a long time now and for us the app router has been key to increasing DX

Re:Why is the JavaScript ecosystem like this on Wednesday January 04, 2023 @04:07PM (#34251625)
This is an old issue; the ecosystem has changed.

Now, using the "engine" and "packageManages" properties, you can bind your project to a particular runtime version and package manager.

Re:Why is the JavaScript ecosystem like this on Wednesday January 04, 2023 @04:01PM (#34251526)
You shouldn't self-host software developed in javascript if you don't know what you're doing.

The node version issue, for example, can be fixed simply by using tools like "nodenv" or "nvm".
