Me! I was a Dvorak user for around 6-8 years, but switched to Colemak mod-DH. I found it to be worth it. Colemak mod-DH is more ergonomic for ortholinear keyboards, less "alternate hand" keys, more balanced left/right hand ratio, and overall (for me) more pleasant to use.

Hey there! Author of devhints.io here... happy to answer any questions you may have.

if you were using something like Angular or React to manage your full page, then by all means run with it! RSJS is an alternative to that that's more suited for "traditional" sites rendered on the server (eg, traditional Rails and Rails-like setups).

I think the post title can use some work!

It's a very old P2P file sharing network modeled after Napster. It's main propositions (in my opinion) are its active users who share harder-to-find electronic music, and its discussion groups which are available inside the app.

I'm not sure about that—"Rico Sta. Cruz" isn't some pseudonym I can restyle, it's my actual real name :)

The "placebo progress bar" UI pattern isn't new.

For instance, there's no way to monitor the progress of sending an SMS message, yet the iPhone UI displays a progress bar for it. It assumes that SMS's take an average of 4 seconds to send, so the progress bar moves at that rate.

NProgress follows the same idea, and its default behavior operates similarly. Ideally, you should tweak the progress to be more in tune with your average load times (which is what I've done for our 2 apps that use it).

Hi, I'm the author of NProgress. Yes! It's intentional.

You can disable this by removing the `cursor: wait` rule in the CSS file.

Good point—let me address that soon.

Hey guys! I built this, let me know if you have any questions.
