Our bandwidth on Vercel went up to about 80% mainly because we had 5 videos of ~ 1.5mb on our landing page.
I moved all the videos to
@Cloudflare
and
1. The videos now even load faster
2. Vercel bandwidth dropped from 80% to about 5%
3. It cost me $0 on Cloudflare.

@layiwasabi
The one I looked forward to was
“Info leyan fin fo”
If you are not Yoruba, it means
A person uses Info to fly.
Info is the short form of Information.
Fo in Yoruba means to fly but he was trying to rhyme “Info” in English and “Fo” in Yoruba.

My Starlink is finally here 😮💨😮💨😮💨
There couldn’t have been a better time for this to arrive. Network providers in Nigeria at this point are just garbage and to be honest my productivity has been poor due to very poor internet connection.
Ready to ship faster than ever before

90% of the people complaining about this didn’t even watch the conference. This is the problem with the JS community, we jump to conclusions without even understanding context. Lots of smart people took their time to come up with this, we should ask what trade off they considered

The more Nigerian startups that build platforms that are used worldwide and are worth millions, the more we open opportunities for competitive salaries in the ecosystem.

Lol a crazy idea but until we can click on classes and go to its implementation (like functions) or on hover we see all related styling. Tailwind is still more maintainable.
