It is basically http://mail.office365.com in an electron shell. I’m pretty sure all the non ‘classic’ apps are this way now. I’m currently trying out Thunderbird to see if I like it.

Could it be a route cache thing? may be worth trying artisan route:clear followed by artisan route:cache

Haven’t done this type of optimizing in a long time, I had a quick look at the network graph for your front page (F12 dev tools in desktop browser), my understanding is it looks like you are getting blocked from loading additional resources (fonts + background) until your style sheets are fully read --pink line is document loaded i believe.

It may be worthwhile to experiment with adding some preload links to the html template? or output? like below and assessing if it makes things faster for you.

Atom did bring about tree-sitter at least.

From https://zed.dev/blog/we-have-to-start-over

We got to a certain point with Atom. It was 2017 when we’d shipped Teletype and it felt like, okay, it’s no longer our own ignorance holding us back, it really is like the platform holding us back at this point.

…

the ironic thing is that we created Electron to create Atom, but I can’t imagine a worse application for Electron than a code editor, I don’t know.

People try to use Manjaro as Arch when it isn’t Arch. Manjaro has it’s own repositories that may not match Arch version. You install an AUR package that depends on an up to date Arch package to work and it fails.

The helicarrier is an interesting development, I was wondering if they were using some air based repeater.

I was apparently enraptured by PCs as a child, didn’t really do much apart from games / emulators until secondary school. At ~14 I was offered an extracurricular class to learn how to program TI-82 calculators. This really clicked for me, ended up pursuing a heavy math / comp sci / stem curriculum. I get to automate away tedious / boring tasks by working on a mentally stimulating puzzle. The rush on getting it working the first time is 👌

She is a powerful orator who has already had major impacts on climate policy around the world,

I really don’t think she’s as important as you think she is, or anywhere near as influential.

Her influence extends to rustling the jimmies of mainstream media, I get to hear all about it the next day from coworkers over lunch … “did you hear about what she said this time?”
