Unpredictable wait times : Wait times (latency) for ChatGPT’s responses are unpredictable, and there aren’t audio cues to help me establish an expectation for how long I need to wait before it responds. What’s stranger is that sometimes it thinks I said something when I didn’t, maybe because it picked up on background rumbles in my car.

Apple Corporate is at fault, not Open Source engineers or the line managers who support them. In almost every area, Apple's low-quality implementation of features WebKit already supports requires workarounds not necessary for Firefox (Gecko) or Chrome/Edge/Brave/Samsung Internet (Blink). So is speedy resolution and agreement.

In the MySQL open source ecosystem, we have only two consolidated ways to perform sharding — Vitess and ProxySQL. Let’s see the write operations with 24 and 64 threads: We get a gain of ~33% just using sharding, while for latency, we do not have a cost. Do not go for the last shiny things just because they shine.

Modern browsers like Chrome and Samsung Internet support a long list of features that make web apps more powerful and keep users safer. Samsung Internet set as the default browser and loads web pages from links in the app. iOS's security track record, patch velocity, and update latency for its required-use engine is not best-in-class.

How do such techniques enable us to bank online and carry out other sensitive transactions on the Internet while trusting numerous relays? As you might imagine, all of these back and forth trips made during the TLS handshake add latency overhead when compared to unencrypted HTTP requests. Peer review and open source, battle tested.

This metric is important, but quite vague because it can include anything — starting from server rendering time and ending up with latency problems. For example, for an internet shop, it may be a page with a product list, product details page, shopping cart, checkout, and so on. So make a competitors list. But how can you do it?

I had my website with funny photos and links to favorite websites live on the internet, and better yet, I could edit directly on the server. It was a battle of not only proprietary vs open source but also static vs dynamic. This broad range of use cases has helped grow WordPress to power almost 40% of the internet.

This is because HTTP/3 and QUIC mainly help deal with the somewhat uncommon yet potentially high-impact problems that can arise on today’s Internet. This part is a bit more technical than the first, though it offloads most of the really deep stuff to outside sources, focusing on explaining why these things matter to the average web developer.
