One issue is other people might still upload information about you, so you'd have to limit your irl interactions as well

The lack of local account makes it so difficult to setup a PC for someone else, I wish they just used the same strategy as macOS.

It's not a new thing, it's a common way to fill empty slots for aesthetic purposes, especially with RGB builds in aquarium cases.

It depends on the runtime: Node can run Typescript because it automatically strips types (which is so convenient during development).

But in browser, for now only the more limited JSDoc-style types can be shipped as-is indeed.

Because it's a waste of bandwidth if they're not enforced at runtime, the same reason why minification exists.

Both not minifying and including unenforced type hints consumes a little bandwidth though this can be largely offset by compression. This is an engineering trade off against the complexity of getting source maps working reliably for debugging and alerting. If I am shipping a video player or an internal company dashboard how much of my time is that bandwidth worth?

I never stopped, Bandcamp sells DRM-free files (especially on "Bandcamp Fridays" once a month when more of the money goes to the artist, unlike Spotify and other streaming services), and VLC works on both desktop and mobile.

web components are terrible and should not be used for modern development with the exception of very nieche use cases that require sandboxing

Custom elements are web components, it's literally what the article is about

Merry Christmas !

May your glühwein be hot and your cats purring :)

lol it claims I'm fiercely anti-Creative Cloud whereas I'm actually one of their oldest subscribers (literally signed up the day it was announced)
