Frontend is failing. 75% of devices with browsers are smartphones, but not even half of sites pass Core Web Vitals on them. Why not? Too much JavaScript, added to indulge SPA fantasies the data is falsifying in real time:

I might have mentioned this before, but I'd better remind you that I am teaching a class on the history of video games (over 4 live sessions).

It's titled *History of Video Games: a tale of tech and game design*, and lessons start this Monday, Dec 1.

Utah 2034 turning up with a last-ditch attempt to prevent bots from competing
