“The 49MB Web Page” by Shubham Bose

> Good UX is highly desired and once you get it right, it feels almost natural, intuitive. The current state of news UI assumes that the reader is an adversary to be trapped and monetized. Choosing between a profitable publication and a fast, accessible user experience is not an either-or decision. I guarantee you the engineers at these publications hate this as much as we do, but…

SVGs on the web: performance comparison based on how you load them | Joan León

Inline, sprite with <use>, <object>, <img>... each way of loading an SVG has different implications for performance, caching and rendering. A practical analysis to help you choose well.

The first reviews of my new book on software performance engineering are coming in:

⭐ "A manifesto against enshittification."
⭐ "The most principled engineering book I've read in a long time."
⭐ "The best chapters in this book are worth a whole book."

And it's now 50% off with code “MLOdell” until 26 March: https://hubs.la/Q044cvlc0

Performance Engineering in Practice - Den Odell

You can prevent most software performance problems if you recognize their predictable patterns. Performance Engineering in Practice introduces author Den Odell’s Fast by Default model that replaces the slow fix-it-later path with a unique framework to build in performance from the start. Den Odell’s System Paths framework provides a universal diagnostic language for performance that works across any platform or stack to keep your systems fast even as your codebase, team, and user base grow. You’ll work through hands-on examples like slow internal dashboards and cascading problems from a degraded API. Effective profiling tools, shared dashboards, CI budgets, and design reviews all ensure your performance goals are user-centered and your team is aligned and accountable.
