There’s been a lot of hype around Svelte in the web dev world. Especially since it doesn’t use a virtual DOM—and is touted as extremely fast.

I’m wondering what the real world differences are compared to frameworks like React and Vue. Is it truly that much faster than a framework that uses a virtual DOM?

And are there any studies or articles that give a breakdown on real world speed differences?

If you're someone that enjoys seeing seeing movies in theaters (and are reading this), I need your input.

I'm working on a side project - and am looking to create a list of the most important factors that go into making a great movie theater experience... great.

Things like:

- Screen size - Sound quality - Popcorn quality - Bathroom cleanliness - Seat comfort - Bonus offerings (food delivery, bar etc)

What would YOU say you care about most when visiting a theater? Any thoughts / feedback would be greatly appreciated.

BONUS: What are some of the nicest theaters you've visited where you live?

I'm currently in my mid 30s, and feel like I've forgetting how to do basic math. My day job is programming / web development, and I often feel like a fraud that I don't know (or remember) basic (and not so basic) math.

Does anyone have any recommendations on the best routes to go when re-learning math later in life? I'm a big fan of online courses—and am ideally looking for a platform that sets a solid foundation and progresses into more advanced math topics.

Maybe something like Khan Academy would be a good route to go? I want to look at all my options.

I have both Hyper and iTerm on my computer and have never really committed to one or the other. I kinda just switch back and forth hoping I’ll “decided” on one or the other. Thoughts on why someone might prefer one over the other?

Is anyone aware of an iOS app that helps you retake a photo with the same framing as old photo? (Maybe it shows an old photo with a lower opacity to help you line it up?)

I have an upcoming internship where I'll be using Swift. Most of my experience is in JavaScript—and I'm looking for some good resources to get up to speed quick with Swift. The training/resource landscape is a bit confusing since I'm not familiar with the language, as a lot of the tutorials seem to focus on older versions.

Outside of hackingwithswift.com, Swift Playground, and the official Swift docs, does anyone have any favorite resources, books, videos, etc?

Thank you!

I recently started learning Splunk (using their their online education curriculum) and I’m wonder if anyone has any ideas for how I could use this on hobby/personal web projects. Is there data I could get from a database or server that would be useful for a solo project? Or is Splunk really just for larger companies?

I've been struggling to fully grasp how React hydration/rehydration works. When using something like Gatsby, is React fully sent to to the client AFTER the static content? Looking for someone to explain it in an easy to understand manner.

My wife and I have been saving for a house for the past few years, and were thinking about purchasing one this year. And with COVID-19, I’m curious what people think will happen to the housing market?

I’m looking for some resources/tips on how to best increase my typing speed.
