- ruining perfectly working systems in the name of progress
- selling out core capabilities to third parties
- usually resulting in a worse product in some dimension

Preact Signals just got a huge performance boost:
Signals rendered as text/props & effects only "pull" as fast as needed for rendering. Since computeds run as-needed, they now only re-run as often as their downstream DOM output can be painted.
H/t to @jovidecroock.com for making this happen.

Yes! I’ve been saying this for quite some time. We’ve replaced a vetted, reputation-based system (TV & written media) with a free-for-all money grab.
At 30,000 followers you become a "celebrity" and are prohibited from endorsing drugs, according to an official ruling by the UK Advertising Standards Authority.
