Really good interview with @SlexAxton and @amadeus on optimizing rendering performance for diff and tree views! I particularly liked the part (as Wes says) about using autoresearch to have the agent go off and try things until it found optimization opportunities. I love hearing

@SachaGreif not sure if you're the best person to ping about this, but today I noticed the percentages in the State of HTML survey look off (e.g. the numbers are all very small and don't add up to 100). 2023.stateofhtml.com/en-US/features… Is this a bug?

📢 New post: The State of ES5 on the Web. For years, we defaulted to transpiling to ES5 in order to support IE. But is that still necessary? I took a look at the data to find out, and I'll just say that the results were *actually* quite surprising! 🙀
