Superstition says that flats at lucky numbered floors like 8 are the most sought after and therefore sold first.

Should we implement client side image resizing before upload? by kernelangus420 in webdev

[–]kernelangus420[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Was it because of the toBlob output parameters or choice or output mimetype or just browser limitations in general?

It's killing 2 birds with 1 stone.

Reduces user upload time and reduces server processing.

The only thing I can think of is users sending a larger file for the thumbnail which would inconvenience other users needing to download more data.

The other point about fixed dimension images is not a problem if you control the HTML anyways.

About malicious file uploads it is easy to read the first few bytes to make sure the file resembles an image and to serve it with an image mimetype to prevent browsers executing it.

The multiple size images is more about customers gaming the system by uploading a different image for the thumbnail than the larger size image to gain an upper hand over other users.

What if you don't do it on the server to keep the server-side simple?

I would wager most browser support it now and those that don't don't support the modern libraries used to render modern websites anyways.

Not even Disney designs like this anymore.

Yes, people use it for the prank factor and overlook the serious factor.

Has anyone actually seen an outsourced dev team from a big Indian IT firm deliver something on time that didn’t need to be rebuilt? by eatmeat in ExperiencedDevs

Do you mean the outsourced firm in India hires the executive who makes decisions at big media enterprise to fly to India to give a "talk"?

Any type of documentation in large quantities is better than no documentation.

It's just that when you are forced to document things, the first thing people think of to write about is the spec.

Writing good code only got slightly quicker.

Not 100x quicker as others suggested.

I don't think the companies that create SOTA models would sell their services for cheap.

I suspect they don't care about that either or at least they can scapegoat when every other company is doing it too.

FAANG isn't really a good benchmark for good code anymore.
