Great article by Geoff Graham in @smashingmag. How to diagnose and fix third-party bottlenecks that slow down your pages and hurt your users' experience:

🔺 What is the "main thread"?
🔺 Spot long tasks & blocking
🔺 Track like INP & TBT
🔺 Optimize scripts

@sia It wasn't on my radar till earlier this year. Makes me wonder how many other great online events I'm missing!

tammy,
@tammy@webperf.social avatar

@sia One of the organizers contacted me about doing a talk. You should definitely reach out to them. I'm sure they'd love to hear from you!

tammy,
@tammy@webperf.social avatar

@sia Ha! Mastodon's UI for comment threads is... interesting.

Where I live, most community events are shared on Facebook. That's probably the main reason why I'm still on that platform. I'd like to delete my account, but then I'd lose touch with local events.

This past weekend:

🧙‍♀️ Paddled in my town’s annual Witches Float
🎭 Saw some amazing local theatre
🧵 Did some funky quilting with a cool gang of local quilters
💩 Learned that I can use bear poo (which currently is in plentiful supply in my yard) to fertilize my garden

Midlife in small towns is fun, y’all.

@sia It was so fun! There were about 40 of us paddling along the waterfront. It's a relatively new event, so a lot of folks don't know about it yet. We surprised a lot of bystanders (in a good way, I hope).

"Why do I see different numbers for the same metrics in different tools?" I hear this a lot. You need to trust your tools and metrics. This explainer will help.

🟡 Synthetic vs RUM
🟡 Tool A vs Tool B
🟡 Lighthouse in different tools
🟡 RUM vs CrUX

You know what I love?

Hyperlinks.

They are awesome.

tammy,
@tammy@webperf.social avatar

@bkardell When I first started using the web, every site was grey and had no images. Hyperlinks were enough magic to pull me in.

I had such a blast chatting with @tannerhodges on the @catchingup podcast! We talked about things like strapping EEG headsets onto people to learn how we perceive site slowdowns, and how to measure the impact of on and business metrics. Enjoy!

Any time I do a talk, my greatest hope is that the main messages are going to resonate with people, and hopefully help them in whatever work they do. Thank you for including me in your excellent @btconf recap, Christian. You made my day!

Sometimes when the weight of the world feels heavy, I remind myself that I once baked the best pie in town.

tammy,
@tammy@webperf.social avatar

@gallego I'm always happy to share recipes! I don't really follow a strict recipe for pie crust (my mom taught me to make crust when I was a kid, so I just kinda do it on autopilot now), but here's the recipe I used for the filling. Note that you need apple butter, not applesauce. Applesauce is way too thin.

@gallego Enjoy! And let me know how it turns out!

Video of my talk about the psychology of web performance at Beyond Tellerrand is up! It was so fun to revisit / first principles and share them with a new audience. Thank you again to @marcthiele and @btconf for the opportunity!

Thanks, Morgan! Plain language is the only language I speak, so I'm always happy to hear when it works. :)
