I find it wild they've been mainstream now for 16 years and I still just absolutely hate them. I would gladly sacrifice screen for a good physical keyboard.
What you want is currently not possible. The web community currently does not see your use case as necessary or in demand. Maybe they are wrong. But again, blaming the websites for this who are just following the standards set for them is misguided.
I think your argument should be rerouted to browser standards and possibly browser vendors, but not websites. prefers-color-scheme is the only signal given to a website. What should a website do if it is set to "dark"? The only reasonable conclusion is to render a dark theme. Also offering a choice on top of that is a nice thing to do, but I can't agree it should be a requirement.
Possibly browsers could offer per site prefers-color-scheme values, and that would probably solve the problem you're having. Even better, it'd solve it with no changes needed for current websites.
You seem to take issue with `prefers-color-scheme`, which is the only signal a website has to know a user's dark/light preferences. I agree websites should allow users to choose (and remember the choice), but I disagree it's wrong if a website honors `prefer-color-scheme` with no option to switch.
Websites that only have a dark mode regardless of user preference I can agree are problematic, but even there I think more context is needed. A personal blog that is only available in dark is probably fine, an email client from a large company would not be.

I don't find it's about speed, but rather about staying in the zone. vim enables very intricate navigation and editing that is much more tedious to pull off with a mouse. Since I have these commands memorized and very strong muscle memory, I just do them by instinct and my focus on what I'm doing never drifts.
I'm guessing they mean rather than build a static Next site that generates 10k+ pages (or whatever large means in the given context), it instead creates one page that just queries the data from the client.
I have one Next static site that has about 20k pages and takes about 20 minutes to build and deploy. I think that's an acceptable build time. But I do know of other people around the net who have mentioned having sites with 20k-ish pages taking an hour+ to build. For them I could see the desire to try this sqlite trick.
I have made several attempts to switch to Firefox. But for me at least Firefox seems to crash about once a day. I don't think Chrome has ever crashed on me in about a decade of using it, and crashed tabs are extremely rare.
The redesign that's currently in beta seems to mostly be driven by the desire to embed more ads. Instead of just one ad at the top of the page, there's new several spread throughout the feed, very similar to Twitter's promoted tweets.
It's essentially usenet for current times. Which I've always found interesting, as usenet would give reddit users back the freedoms they often crave: no ads, no censorship, no tracking, etc.
Quantity is only one aspect. Structure and ability to mentally parse out patterns matters too. I don't mind Lisps and use Clojure regularly, yet I'd still argue your JS examples are easier to read than the Lisp ones.
Heck even Clojure seems to agree, just the simple act of using vectors for various things (ie function parameters) helps with the readability
I thought programminggeek was making a joke. There's a high level language called Assembly? If so, it's 100% unsearchable. Or are you joking too? Got any links?
That feels very chicken and egg to me. Nintendo owners don't buy 3rd party games because there aren't very many. And there aren't very many because owners don't buy them.
The SNES had extensive 3rd party support. Obviously it's hard to compare 25 years ago to today, but the SNES and Genesis were really "even". Supporting both systems was a no brainer for most game companies. The N64 threw a curve ball with carts, and 3rd party support tanked. Anecdotally, the GameCube seemed to have better 3rd party support, as it was a very equivalent system to the Xbox and PS2.
