Some anecdotal data: I sometimes sleep with a white noise machine (the Dohm from Yogasleep). When I sleep with it, I usually remember my dreams way better (I feel like I had multiple dreams that night compared to almost none usually). I can't really say if I sleep better or not, but it helps me fall asleep quicker if the neighbors are making noise at night.
The performance seems pretty impressive! I'd like to see comet being added to techempower's benchmark, to see how it competes against other frameworks.
I wasn't clear, sorry. What I meant to say is that most people use Laravel and Symfony, which are nowhere near the top performing PHP frameworks on the benchmark.
I have to point out that what you say applies only on the "Fortunes" benchmark. On the others benchmarks, Java always comes before PHP. I'll also add that most people don't use the top performing frameworks (most people use Laravel and Symfony for PHP, which are near the bottom), but that applies to everything here.
Discord was heavily marketed towards the gaming community that was split between Skype, Teamspeak, Mumble and maybe some others that I don't remember. All of them had some flaws while Discord just worked.
It looks great! I never really used Javadoc so please see this as a total outside feedback. I like the modern look, lighthouse is almost perfect in accessibility which is great (the only point lighthouse complains about it the contrast of links). It's also good on performance (80/100).
I have one confusion about the name, I'm used to the web frontend world where "ng" is usually something related to angular but it seems that it isn't the case here. I'm curious to know what's the origin of the name.
I agree, but in the article, it was mentioned that the V8 team already wanted to make their RegExp engine more independent. Also, since Mozilla runs of limited resources, it's great that they will have less maintenance to do in the future.
I think one of the pain points that Go addresses is the compilation speed of large C++ projects at Google, and it's one of the reasons it was made in the first place. From what I know C++ and Rust are in the same ballpark in terms of compilation speed, while Go gives a noticeable improvement.
Correct me if I'm wrong but comparing Go against Swift, C, C++, and Rust isn't really fair since one of Go's goals is compilation speed, in which it seems to shine against these other languages. From what I understand, you're going to trade performance against compilation speed, and Go is on the opposite side of these choices compared to the other languages.
One point that was not mentioned: Deno is distributed as a single binary. Combined with the security options, I think it's a great feature for small scripts in an enterprise context.
