On mobile there’s a snowflake toggle button in the top left corner. I only noticed this after reading the whole article in reader mode and wondering why my iPhone was on fire…
I was starting to wonder why my iPhone got crazy hot. I’m using reader mode and it appears to continue running the web page and animation in the background… crazy.

Could you speak more to this? A family member was recently diagnosed with myoclonic jerks without a clear root cause, so treatment has been hit or miss so far. I’m trying to learn what I can to help inform them.
> Really... how data flows through your program is actually a separate graph structure, and how HTML elements are organized in your program is another separate graph structure we try to graft into the first one and that creates a mess.
My team migrated away from Redux and for over a year I’ve been unable to pinpoint why I’ve been longing for it again. This has hit the nail on the head for me. Redux (and other “global” state management solutions) allowed me to decouple the data graph from the UI graph. When a UI event is triggered, an action is dispatched and then the data graph takes over. This makes the UI graph extremely simple - render UI and dispatch actions - but these days we’re mixing state with business logic, event handling, API calls, rendering UI, styling, etc. This is very much a problem of our own making that could be solved by a different architecture, but yeah… thanks for clarifying this feeling for me.
