  • They - indeed - really appreciate their listeners 😁

    As a long-time listener of the series (since the very first episode!), I of course heard the call to liken the series in recent episodes.

    Since I actually really like listening to the podcasts, I was happy to do so.

    Great stickers were promised as a reward.

    As a listener from Europe, I never expected to actually get any... who sends anything halfway around the globe for such a little thing.

    Until today, when a letter landed in my mailbox!

    A handwritten envelope and with the promised awesome sti... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Speeding up the web with the speculation rules API | Barry Pollard
Q: Are there any potential unexpected consequences that developers might run into?
Developers might encounter increased costs, server load, and potential analytics issues with the API, particularly if they use pre-rendering incorrectly.
Speeding up the web with the speculation rules API | Barry Pollard
Q: What kind of information can be specified to the SpeculationRules API and how do devs do so?
The SpeculationRules API allows developers to specify rules in a JSON format to pre-fetch or pre-render content, targeting links on their pages with specific conditions.
Ripple.js with Dominic Gannaway
Q: Can you tell us a little bit more about how was building a TypeScript first application like this?
We decided that we'd go that one bit further and make the new syntax, but then you're at the crossroads of, do we make it JS or do we make it TS?
Ripple.js with Dominic Gannaway
Q: So it sounds like right now Ripple would take the place of React or Astro or Svelte. Do you have aspirations to make it more of a meta-framework?
Yes, we would eventually do want to meta-framework. I think Ripple can be both. We're not aiming to replace React on Next, or SvelteKit.
WASM 3.0 with Andreas Rossberg
Q: Why is garbage collection important for WebAssembly?
Garbage collection enables managed languages, making it easier for those languages to compile and run on WebAssembly.
