I was still running — or trying to. One interesting thing about carbohydrates: They really do supply your body with a readily available source of energy, and if you don’t eat them, exercising will feel as if someone has turned the gravity up. You can feel the weight of your legs, your shoes, everything. Your body adjusts eventually, but you’re never as fast. Eating pasta, by contrast, makes you feel spring-loaded.
I Tried the Trump Cabinet’s Steak and Sauerkraut Diet. It Was (Mostly) Fantastic. - The New York TimesI told my girlfriend in our first week, “If I did not want to be inconvenienced by you, I would not be in a relationship with you.”
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerNever in my life have I witnessed people be so completely and totally unsupported, while simultaneously having such a large network of friends.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerTrauma sharing appears to be the only method through which someone is able to reasonably ask for unconditional care and understanding in North America. It’s a bid for care and connection, because what we would consider - in Romania - regular daily bids for care and connection, here it’s treated here as controlling co-dependencies.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerRather than mindlessly scrolling TikToks and letting out air through our noses at puns on Instagram reels, we should be talking to friends, sorting out differences, resolving problems.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerI began to notice a chronic depression in the people around me. This hyper individualistic comfort led to a mental and physical stasis that created numbness across every person that I knew.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerPeople will enter partnerships with people they don’t respect. They’ll hold friendships with friends they don’t like.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerFortunately, they have already communicated about this. They have developed a plan for what happens when her emotions become difficult for him to be around. She will spend a few days alone regulating herself, and he will stay at his buddy’s house until she feels more like herself again.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerThis is also why it matters so much whom you allow to enter your life. You want to carefully choose people whom you respect enough to be changed by. You want the people closest to you to possess qualities, values, and perceptions that you would benefit from absorbing.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerIf it sounds like work, it’s because it is. It’s effort. It takes energy, and it requires you to care, and to be involved. Romanian culture does not believe in relationships being “easy.”
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerThe goal is not for there to be a winner and a loser, it’s to address that difference until it no longer exists as a difference.
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerMaybe your partner is having an argument with a shared friend, and you believe that your partner is in the wrong. You don’t immediately take your partner’s side, because you’re not being culturally expected to abandon yourself. However, you also don’t get to just shrug and say, “That’s between you two. There’s no reason I should be involved.”
North Americans have depressing relationships - by SpencerYou simply do not get the comfort of saying, “You do you, and I’ll do me.” As a culture, you are expected to be changed by the people around you.

workbox-precaching | Modules | Chrome for DevelopersOur population is tiny, spread mostly along the southern border, and in most of the land mass — the parts claimed by “the crown” and private companies, and largely inhabited by Indigenous communities that have lived there since the beginning of human memory — anything resembling state services or essential infrastructure is few and far between. Even the few defining things we can claim as “Canadian,” like socialized medicine or pristine wilderness, are under threat by conservative politicians with an eye for privatization.
Canada is fake | The OutlineThe doubts that had followed him to Princeton and for years after had fallen away, and he began racking up results at a rapid clip.
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta Magazine“We like in math to say people are problem solvers and theory builders,” Sarnak said. “Jacob is a problem solver and a theory builder; I say that in a very strong way.”
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineAfter that, Sarnak gave Tsimerman a steady diet of hard problems. Tsimerman would go off, think about the problems for a few months, then come back and report that he’d gotten nowhere. Sarnak would say, “Great,” and then hand him another impossible task.
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineSarnak gave him a problem in an area of math called analytic number theory, which had been Tsimerman’s least favorite topic as an undergraduate. He had come to Princeton hoping to avoid the area completely. But here was Sarnak, offering him the problem he had asked for, and he knew there was no way he could say no.
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineHe decided to retire from competition math, reasoning that after receiving a perfect score, he could only blemish his record with further participation. At that level at least, he had nothing left to win.

Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineTo him, competition math teaches the skill that has mattered most to him: how to stick with a problem.

Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineIn seventh grade, he participated in the Canadian Mathematical Olympiad for the first time.
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineFollowing each milestone in his career, Tsimerman has taken stock, asking himself whether math is really how he wants to spend his life, and whether he’s in fact good enough to succeed in it. And at every previous stage the answer has come back yes.
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta MagazineIt’s an impulse that Tsimerman has also been wary about. He knew it could consume him
Jacob Tsimerman Wins 2026 Fields Medal for André-Oort Conjecture Proof | Quanta Magazine“In my experience, and I think many people’s experience, math is very much a goal-oriented endeavor,” he said. “The truth-and-beauty stuff is there when you’re zoomed out, but when you’re zoomed in, you just want to win.”

So you want to go to graduate school... – Crystal Leeif you have geographically distributed users, you can rollout the new version to a region or a specific location first; if you have multiple brands you can rollout to a single brand first, etc
Canary Releasethe environment will be as production-like as it can be.
Canary Releasea simple strategy is to use a random sample; some companies choose to release the new version to their internal users and employees before releasing to the world; another more sophisticated approach is to choose users based on their profile and other demographics.
Canary ReleaseThese classes are used to associate state and propagate it throughout callbacks and promise chains. They allow storing data throughout the lifetime of a web request or any other asynchronous duration. It is similar to thread-local storage in other languages.
Asynchronous context tracking | Node.js v26.4.0 DocumentationThis analogy between food and media is useful because it helps us better understand responses to the latter. In the context of nutrition, we’re comfortable deciding to largely avoid ultra-processed food for health reasons. In making this choice, we do not worry about being labelled “anti-food,” or accused of a quixotic attempt to reject “inevitable progress” in food technology.
On Ultra-Processed Content - Cal NewportFor large corporations, it allows teams to work independently: the "frontend engineers" can "consume" "APIs" from teams that probably work in a different language and can only communicate through the hierarchy. For heavily interactive applications, it has real benefits in modularity, performance, and structure. And it's beneficial for companies to shift computing requirements from their servers to their customers browsers: a real win for reducing their spend on infrastructure.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comWe're layering optimizations upon optimizations in order to get the SPA-like pattern to fit every use case, and I'm not sure that it is, well, worth it.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comThey're issues with the pattern, not the specific frameworks used to implement it.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comYears ago, I expected that some good patterns would emerge. Frankly, they didn't.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comno option really lets a web app be careless about its data-fetching layer. Web applications can't sit on top of independently-designed APIs: to have a chance at performance, the application and its datasource need to be designed as one.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.coma large portion of web applications are, at their core, query & transformation interfaces on top of databases
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comYour formerly-lightweight application server is now doing quite a bit of labor, running React & making API requests in order to do this pre-rendering.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comAnd the second solution, while it works (and is what we implemented for Mapbox Studio), is a bizarre way for a web application to behave. Prompting users to 'update' is something from the bad old days of desktop software, not from the shiny new days of the web.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comSo if they open the 'about page', keep the tab open for a week, and then request the 'home page', then the home page that they request is dictated by the index bundle that they downloaded last week. This is a deeply weird and under-discussed situation.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comMost bundle splitting techniques require you to load that 'index bundle', and then only once that JavaScript is loaded and executed does your browser know which 'page bundle' it needs. So you need two round-trips to start rendering.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comAnd they're kind of messy optimizations.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comA lot of the optimizations we're deploying to speed up these things, things like bundle splitting, server-side rendering, and prerendering, are triangulating what we had before the rise of React.
Second-guessing the modern web - macwright.comThe high performance parts aren't React. Mapbox GL, for example, is vanilla JavaScript and probably should be forever. The level of abstraction that React works on is too high, and the cost of using React - in payload, parse time, and so on - is too much for any company to include it as part of an SDK. Same with the Observable runtime, the juicy center of that product: it's very performance-intensive and would barely benefit from a port.
