@phoneboy Just experimenting…
@matigo Ah, yeah. The "home" and "following" thing is always a hard one. I wonder how you do it once you're following thousands and thousands of accounts…
I wonder if I can make a streaming proxy that will do polling behind the scenes until @matigo gets his game together :)
Going to toy with the idea of doing a scripted, one-person podcast. We'll see how it goes. I'm not even sure what the topic will be yet, but something will come up. Probably something Elixir related, hah.
@tomas Ok! Finally! Sorry about the late response, I knew you responded but 10C finally got the ability to scroll down and see more entries, haha.
The biggest difference between setting your own timer and checking every 10ms whether it's time to do work or not and asking the browser to do work "in 300ms from now" is that you're wasting a bunch of processor power, forcing the CPU to be awake when really it could be sleeping. The real impact of this is negligible under normal circumstances, especially on a computer, but I have a feeling it's a big factor to why Nice is so unperformant on mobile devices, especially Android.
That said, I'm just armchair optimizing now, which is never a good sign. Heh. :)
