    One of my employeers had a multiple megabytes SPA with a shitload of dependencies (Angular) in production that was just a glorified upload form. All the heavy lifting and verification was done by the backend anyways and it was a pain to upgrade, especially with angular major updates etc.

    Since we replaced it with a vanilla HTML upload form and some templating to display feedback from the backend no more maintenance was necessary and the users and testers where still happy.

    Well it’s correct behavior. Websites from the 90s should load instantly now. Any website loading longer should deliver some amazing content that was impossible in the 90s

    Why do websites have to ship 12 MB of JavaScript before they even start to load? In lots of cases SPA have no benefits for the user and just make everything bloated and complex as hell and due to the insanity of the JavaScript packaging also super hard to keep safe / up to date.

    A guilty pleasure is mine is watching the “best ever food review show” and in one of the episodes he was in Afghanistan and constantly reminding the audience that he’s in so much danger because there are people with guns around him and because the Taliban abducted and tortured some American people (which I agree is bad and scary).

    However, the US is also full of armed religious extremists and the US also has Guantanamo bay and other black sites to abduct and tortured people. If this scares you, you should be scared of the US too, especially now were they also stated to abduct immigrant looking people to foreign prisons or even abduct people / presidents in other countries.
