Observability tools tell you what went wrong. They rarely help you fix it. During an incident, Engineers bounce between Kibana, Slack, and the terminal/IDE often. Every tool switch, the assistant stays behind in the previous surface, and the investigation restarts from scratch🧵

🔥 The newest web compression API announced by @patmeenan at #PerfNow It could be up to 95% more efficient than existing gzip/brotli methods. All leading browsers agree on the spec => it will be shipped soon, and it's super exciting. Learn more: use-as-dictionary.com/

This launch is super close to me personally as it allows the developers to measure the Web performance aspect while ensuring the website is functional. Ex: Super handy during functionality/load tests on peak season (black friday).

Agree 💯, Copilot helps with rapid prototyping when your mind is empty and you are staring at your IDE. But damm the effort you put in to debugging because of the buggy code it produces 😅 x.com/sunshowers6/status/158…

Year 2015 coming back to my memories reading this blogpost - blog.cloudflare.com/better-m… We were running similar architecture for almost 3-4 years at @ZalandoTech - mosaic9.org/ with lots of other goodies like caching, Observability, backoffs, pooling etc.

We’ve built some unusual new features for Elastic Synthetics 8.4.0, now we’re finally talking about them: youtu.be/lG4OcV314_k . Watch me and @justin_kambic discuss

.@v8js surprised me again today! I've received a casual PR to one of my modules. The pattern I have been using to instantiate new objects in JS could be drastically improved. new.target is a thing and it's incredibly fast.

Great post! It's not about a single metric when it comes to Web performance and hope more devs moves towards RUM data for measuring user experience and still rely on lab data for quick reactive check. x.com/philwalton/status/1445…

⚡ New post! (sorry it's been a while): "My Challenge to the Web Performance Community" In this post I talk about one of the biggest threats I see to progress in the web performance space, and what I think we (as an industry) can do to address it. philipwalton.com/articles/my…

I think the thing that confuses people the MOST about Core Web Vitals is: When their lab data tells them things are good, but their field data says they have a problem… 🤔 So I wrote a post to help explain why this can happen and what to do about it: web.dev/lab-and-field-data-d…
