That can be fixed just as easily as reducing the number of requests.
jansenv··on Who Needs GPS? The Story of Etak's 1985 Car Navigation System
This is extremely fascinating! It seems like an almost un-pc fact.
jansenv··on “A state of flow can be achieved by deep work”
This is an interesting concept, but it still requires self control. I could browse all day if I wanted but I WANT to get more work done, but I cant help it. But when I get into that state of flow it seems like nothing can tear me away from my work.

I'll try this.

jansenv··on Will We Ever Know What Dark Matter Is?

Atom has an extension that allows you to mouseover a base64 string and see the image output
jansenv··on Updates to our Google Voice apps
Hangouts API is discontinuing, and the app is buggy as heck. We've already moved away from it and are experimenting with in-house solutions or looking for alternatives. Slack is too pricey, everything else seems shite.
jansenv··on Google AMP Is Not a Good Thing

jansenv··on Which editor/IDE do you use and why?
I use Atom for frontend web dev. I don't particularly love it, honestly.

I used Webstorm from Intellij when I was doing pure JS work. Loved it.

I'm considering going the full Intellij suite, but the cost is prohibitive.

Good find though. This is really fishy.

jansenv··on Cheap and Painless eGPU Thrills on a 2013 MacBook Pro
This is really amazing! I will be keeping an eye on this tech, as I do a bit of gaming on my mbp. It seems obvious that the prices will continue to fall on these components.
jansenv··on US Govt Data Shows Russia Used Outdated Ukrainian PHP Malware
Plus it seems clear that many of the leaks were leaks, not hacks. RIP Seth Rich
jansenv··on Firebug lives on in Firefox DevTools
I will say that having firebug open did cause major performance issues for regular browsing, but the performance of inspect element was quicker.

I am just happy they are really making an effort to improve the tools overall :)

jansenv··on Firebug lives on in Firefox DevTools
Maybe I'm doing something wrong. When I click inspect element, it first opens the dev tools and then inspects the body and after a moment of loading it hops to the correct element.
jansenv··on Firebug lives on in Firefox DevTools
The new dev tools are really sluggish compared to firebug. The new features are great, but hitting inspect element takes like 2 seconds now.

lots of carb-ons and fiber.
jansenv··on Bluetooth 5 Now Available

jansenv··on YC’s 2016 Holiday Gift Guide
I wouldn't even accept these businesses as design clients. Gross.
