  • They - indeed - really appreciate their listeners 😁

    As a long-time listener of the series (since the very first episode!), I of course heard the call to liken the series in recent episodes.

    Since I actually really like listening to the podcasts, I was happy to do so.

    Great stickers were promised as a reward.

    As a listener from Europe, I never expected to actually get any... who sends anything halfway around the globe for such a little thing.

    Until today, when a letter landed in my mailbox!

    A handwritten envelope and with the promised awesome sti... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mark Dalgeish on mastering RSCs with React Router
Q: In data mode in particular, what are RSCs really enabling now that they weren't before? What is the performance benefit here?
RSC enables offloading code execution from the client to the server, leading to lighter client bundles and potentially better performance as it reduces heavy computation in client-side applications.
Mark Dalgeish on mastering RSCs with React Router
Q: Can we contextualize that just a little bit more for people that maybe aren't in the world, but what are just conceptually, like, what is data mode versus framework mode with React Router?
Data mode brings framework functionality to React Router, defining routes upfront allowing loading and management of data; framework mode integrates deeply with bundlers to manage server-client interactions more seamlessly.
Modularizing the monolith with Jimmy Bogard
Q: If they ask you to do this, what's the first thing you would do?
I would typically start in my chain of command, looking for someone who has a deep understanding of both the business and the system.
Modularizing the monolith with Jimmy Bogard
Q: Where does that conversation start?
The conversation often starts with understanding the perspectives of business stakeholders as well as technical team members.
The useless useCallback: React performance myths unpacked, with Dominik Dorfmeister
Q: When do you think it is worth the effort, or is it really ever worth the effort to use something like useMemo?
Situations where referential stability is critical, like in tables and virtualization.
