Re:Firefox is the alternative to a Chrome hegemony on Monday November 29, 2021 @10:01AM (#29380616)
One annoyed UX I dislike about Firefox is swipe back on iOS. Firefox team should fix their swipe back which go to previous page, it also lead to page refresh, and caused the scroll lose its position.

This deliver a poor experience when implementing History API compare to Safari and Google on iOS that work as expected.

A quick benchmark, Vmctl has fare slight lower/better latencies than Parallels.

Alternative to Go, the ease of talking to C could get simple, V language which transpile into C code with minimal overhead, still infancy at this stage, the end goals is to translate C source to readable V code.

IE11 is meant for supporting legacy sites and Microsoft doesn’t recommend consumers to use it. It make sense to work on Grid and Flexbox for new sites.

I have experiment Meteor for a while in it early stage, I felt Meteor became complex to manage and didn’t like to stuck in a high technical debts.

Now I would rather wait for V language which seem to solve many limitations found in other languages.

I trust UpCloud more than other VPS provider because the technical support (Regional) has been very approachable and you know "who" they are. Beside, they promise 100% uptime SLA when your business is critical.

Re:Next.js 8 released on Monday February 11, 2019 @08:00AM (#19134076)
One concern on mobile where I find the scrolling is not respond for a second or longer whenever I swipe back to previous page in Safari, applicable in some of the showcases in Next.js too, is it the expected user experience?

Clients see Wordpress as a business platform/lack of dedicated supported in-house and developers on projects based could keep generate incomes from small businesses.

What are the amazing option do you suggests with batteries include in the language would be ideal.

> Honestly, Go is great. Its simplicity is refreshing and its performance unmatched. I would still pick it if we need a small API or something that requires high throughput.

I wonder which part is performance unmatched?

My opinion would be Crystal language for its simplicity and higher throughput but unmatched performance is behind Rust and C.

The article is translated from Japanese, not from Chinese since Qiita is for the Japanese community.

Agree, I believe the benchmark shown Yaji and jq in this repo is useful for you

https://github.com/kostya/benchmarks/blob/master/README.md

I believe this comparison benchmark could be useful for you and you can expand further with more tests. Although I got downvoted for sharing a link.

I'm curious how well could Crystal language handles that huge amount of JSON since most of the Ruby code could be ported over to Crystal.

It has a JSON pull parser to minimize memory usage which is useful for memory constraint environment but at the expense of less performant. If that could be split up with fork Crystal processes, I believe it's feasible.
