If Next.js’s bundles are only 21 to 31% larger than TanStack Start (both using React), what are you actually getting for that extra 44 to 54 kB? And more importantly, do the dominant frameworks’ baselines (React at 100.7 to 118.2 kB compressed, Vue at 72.3 kB compressed, Angular at 103.9 kB compressed) buy you anything compared to alternatives that deliver 30.6 to 54.1 kB compressed?

For anyone starting a new project, the evaluation raises an important question: Is there any reason to make your app 25.9x heavier than necessary?
If you want to build a better product than your competitors, why would you build exactly like them? When everyone uses Next.js, winning on performance means fighting upstream against React’s design. When you use Marko, SolidStart, SvelteKit, or Nuxt instead, the advantage comes easily. Your app is faster by default. Your bundle is smaller without optimization work. Your users get a better experience without extra effort, giving you genuine differentiation.

Next-Gen Frameworks Deliver Instant Performance: Marko (39ms), SolidStart (35ms), SvelteKit (38ms), and Nuxt (38ms) all achieve essentially instant First Contentful Paint in the 35-39ms range. This is 11 to 12 times faster than Next.js at 444ms

Mini-Baheth: cross-platform desktop GUI for searching files using ripgrep
- Streaming results realtime to the UI.
- Context lines (before/after) and matching text highlighting.
- Directory and file-pattern filtering.
- Fast first paint: only root-level directories initially; fetch more on demand.
- Preview files; DOCX/DOC are converted to text for readability.
- Search control with four modes:
-- Smart: Only expands base letters and turns spaces into gaps; no PCRE and no extra mark handling. If you type diacritics, they are treated literally.
-- Ignore diacritics: Matches with or without diacritics by allowing optional combining marks (and tatweel) after Arabic letters. Enables PCRE2.
-- Require diacritics: Enforces diacritics only where you typed them in your query (per-letter). Enables PCRE2.
-- Regex: Uses your regex pattern as-is.
Built using Python + Tauri + PyTauri + SvelteKit + Shadcn
Also available as self hosted Django web ui

To stop macOS from shuffling fullscreen Spaces/desktops around, you need to turn off the “Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use” option in Mission Control
On recent macOS versions (Ventura, Sonoma, Sequoia and similar)
- Open System Settings.
- Go to “Desktop & Dock” in the sidebar.
- Scroll down to the “Mission Control” section.
- Turn off “Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use”.
On older macOS versions (with “System Preferences” instead of “System Settings”)
- Open System Preferences.
- Click “Mission Control”.
- Uncheck “Automatically rearrange Spaces based on most recent use”.

Some people live a quiet, private life. No audience and no strangers. Just family, friends, and a small circle that understands them.
Then one day, they decide to go online. They open a social media account and begin speaking to the entire world, sharing opinions, stories, emotions, and personal experiences.
After one or two videos, the comments come in. Criticism, mockery and harsh words are hurled at them, and suddenly, insecurity sets in.
The next video isn’t a message anymore, it’s a defense, then tears, then explanations, then more pain.
And I ask, what for? Islam teaches us that not everything needs to be shared. Not everyone deserves access to your story.
The Quran teaches us the wisdom of selective sharing through the story of Prophet Yusuf عليه السلام.
قالَ يا بُنَيَّ لا تَقصُص رُؤياكَ عَلى إِخوَتِكَ فَيَكيدوا لَكَ كَيدًا إِنَّ الشَّيطانَ لِلإِنسانِ عَدُوٌّ مُبينٌ
“He said, ‘O my son, do not relate your dream to your brothers, or they will plot against you. Indeed, the devil is a clear enemy to man.” (Surah Yusuf: 5)
This wasn’t about hiding the truth, it was about protecting it. Because not everyone who hears your story will make Dua for you. Some will envy you, some will misunderstand you and some will use it against you.
The online world is not built on gentleness. It is not obligated to sympathize with you. And it will not change for your sensitivity. If you are sensitive, and there is nothing wrong with that, then protect yourself.
Not every story, pain and emotion needs an audience and comments. Some things are meant to stay offline, where they are safer, purer, and better cared for.
Keeping things private is not shameful nor is it weakness. And staying offline can sometimes be the wisest decision of all. Choose wisely.
