For almost 10 years we've been publishing daily web platform news for the Russian-speaking community. I always wanted to do the same in English, and five months ago I finally started.

A wave of manic energy in December had me put together a long deck called "HarfBuzz at 20! " , celebrating 20 years of HarfBuzz. 🎂
I designed the deck to be presented at the #WebEnginesHackfest later this year. Then reality hit that I cannot present this deck in any sane amount of time.
Inspired by all the great presentations coming out of #FOSDEM today, I decided that instead of tossing the deck out, I just put it out here to be read by the curious. I will present a highly condensed version at the hackfest in June.
Let me know what you think. 🙏

Fixing the URL params performance penalty. @tunetheweb explains how unnecessary query parameters like UTM tags hurt caching and web performance by creating redundant versions of the same page. The new No-Vary-Search HTTP header lets servers declare which URL params can be ignored, allowing browsers and CDNs to cache more efficiently. For now, supported only in Chrome 141. #performance #http
