Missing 2021 in the title.

I know it is not the exact topic, but sometimes I think we dont need the fastest response time but consistent response time. Like every single page within the site to be fully rendered with exactly 1s. Nothing more nothing less.





I think the advise is still very relevant though. Plus, the varying network conditions mentioned in the article would ensure it’s difficult if impossible to guarantee consistent response time. As someone with spotty cellular coverage, I can understand the pains of browsing when you’re stuck with that.

Yes. I don't know how it could be achieved other than having JS rendered the whole thing, wait until time designated before showing it all. And that time could be dependent on network connection.

But this sort of goes against my no / minimal JS front end rendering philosophy.
