crazy that storing a piece of data that needs to be accessible from multiple sources is incredibly hard

at scale it means caching, which means latency and stale data, which means coordination and resolution

it becomes a time problem

it's great to see that design engineering is a mix of both sides; many started programming websites and appealed to the intricacy of visual interfaces; others start from art and graphic design; we meet the web as a medium of expression

Safari web apps ("Add to Dock") does NOT clear web storage after 7 days of inactivity, unlike the default behavior for Safari browsing

cringe that AI editors are focusing on having it write code for you, instead of tackling the more valuable problem:

reading/navigating/understanding existing code!!

i need on-demand "code maps" with generated documentation, so I can more quickly traverse a codebase with thousands of methods

it's a race

can CSS be an expressive enough layout system
vs
can you move enough application JS into a worker and truly make the main thread === UI thread
