Please fix the bug if possible with Sublime Merge where the UI just becomes completely unresponsive... it always happens due to using it on a workspace and its so annoying to force close and reopen it every day! I love sublime merge otherwise!

Still don't understand why people prefer magic templated front-end frameworks. Reading non-standard HTML just sucks. What even is "$:" or why does Vue require non-standard javascript ref("") objects...

You can also use migadu which is a lot cheaper :)

You can run this stuff using docker & then just have a cron script to `docker-compose pull && docker-compose up -d`. I run this once a week and it keeps all my software up-to-date.

on Wednesday May 04, 2022 @09:07PM (#31268116)
So the original issue essentially stemmed from you requesting a lot of data that you didn't need, causing requests to be very slow, and then switching to rails caused your requests to be fast? Wow, I'm really sure that's react's fault!

Instead of learning gzip, now in 2 years everyone will have to learn a library that has been abandoned and has almost no tooling or documentation!

Because it's amazing to develop in and if you are good at development it's not hard to make performant applications. Don't blame the framework for a lack of skill

If your node_modules is 3.7GB, you are doing something seriously wrong. My node_modules for a 100k+ line app is 243MB and that includes all my dependencies, compiler and testing frameworks which seems very reasonable. All compiled down to a 4MB blob which seems pretty reasonable for a big app :)

Here, use this opinionated software to set up a react project and be frustrated about the amount of dependencies instead of just setting up a project myself! I just tested a base typescript react project, and you only need 14 packages on its own (typescript, react, react-dom) to build the project. Wow!

a developer who doesn't think of that is going to do that with react or without react. freeing up development time to focus on better user experience is more possible by using a framework such as react.
