Reading through taylor hunt's series on large webapp optimizations (https://dev.to/tigt/routing-im-not-smart-enough-for-a-spa-5hki) is fascinating and hilarious!
Favorite quote of part 4 so far is
"Sure, 8 out of 9 teams jumped on updating that vulnerable input-parsing library.

@flbr Also this:
"The Web’s size and diversity makes client-side “fast enough” impossible to judge. And if your usage statistics come from JS-driven analytics that must download, parse, and upload to record a user… can you be certain of low-end usage?"
