- I don’t hate SPAs, I just think some apps are better off being MPAs. I wouldn’t build a todo list app as an MPA. But many apps really are just CRUD forms and tables.
- Thank you so much. Please ping me if you have any questions about these techniques. I’m `joeldrapper` on Discord and GitHub.
- I enjoy writing mostly SSR apps with just a few specific Svelte components mounted as custom elements. It works really well.
- My specific use case was building a form where each change to an input would fetch a new copy of the form from the server and morph it in place.
It means the server-side code can be really simple. You can make parts of the form depend on the values of other parts. For example you can show/hide a section based on a checkbox or fill a select with options based on a previous selection.
Because it was a form, it was really important to maintain object identity and state perfectly so the user would not be interrupted.
- Incredibly mature response, turning the other cheek.
- I’m not talking about who wrote the code. Hundreds of people wrote the code, that’s not particularly relevant. I’m talking about who had maintainership of the code and how those maintainers had agreed to govern the project.
What was your maintainership status when this all kicked off? Were you one of the owners removed by HSBT?
- I believe the quote pulled from my article is true. Freedom’s original article lines up with what other people told me. I know he’s tried to retract it, but I don’t trust him to be truthful in this matter. He has lied about other things like the takeover being necessary for security.
- Ruby Central is making legal threats to its critics, so I hope you can see why people don’t feel safe to come forward on the record.
I can tell you that two people with direct knowledge of the situation told me that Shopify demanded that Ruby Central take full control of the RubyGems GitHub organisation and packages.
You can believe that I am lying if you want. But I can’t directly cite my sources in this case.
- So it’s okay for Matz to get HSBT to steal people’s open source projects? What if Matz sponsors stole Ruby from him? WTF?
- These projects were not Ruby Central’s in the first place. They were stolen for Ruby Central by a Ruby Core insider, HSBT. This is horrible news.
They were stolen from André Arko, Colby Swandale, David Rodríguez, Ellen, Josef Šimánek, Martin Emde and Samuel Giddins.
- I believe the CDN is provided for free by Fastly. Not sure about other funding at the moment.
- How does `.coop` get used for spam when you need to prove you’re an actual cooperative to get one?
- Yes, I will be one of those people.
- Only “minor” because they were in fact wrong about André being a risk. Had he been a real risk, this would have been about as major as it gets. They left him with root production AWS console and full production database access.
Fortunately he’s a standup guy and not a real security risk, so he emailed them immediately to let them know.
- I expect a lot of people will stop pushing gem updates to `rubygems.org` once `gem.coop` supports publishing directly to namespaces.
- I believe the hosting is already covered.
- Why has this been flagged?
- I heard it directly from people directly involved.
I know it’s more expensive, but it’s like 1ms to render a document on the server and 3ms to morph it in the client. If you keep an SSE connection open, Brotli compression is very effective when you send almost the same HTML again and again.
