Malte's home video conferencing setup
  • Lights: Elgato Key Lights (2, one as actual key light, one as fill light)
    • Looking into these lights can cause fatigue after a while, which sucks if you're doing that all day.
    • I managed to work around it by heavily dimming one light that is in my field of view and moving the other light out of my field of view.
  • Microphone: Blue Snowball Ice
  • Microphone pop filter
  • Wall/ceiling mounts for camera and lights
  • Camera: Sony a6000.
    • This is one of multiple older Sony mirrorless cameras recommended for streaming.
  • Whichever you buy, make sure the reviews mention that it can stay on

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

  • elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

If you're planning to watch the videos, I really recommend this Mac app that helps you download and watch them: https://github.com/insidegui/WWDC.
