Ask HN: Do People Care About Image Optimisation Anymore?

by CM30 · 9 minutes ago

Maybe I'm showing my age a bit, but I recall hearing that images should be saved in formats based on their type to save on file size. So, photographs would be JPEGs, illustrations and icons would be PNGs, vector images would be SVGs, etc.

But now it feels like no-one does this anymore. Every site I've seen just seems to store all images as webp now, with many outright uploading multiple megabyte photo files in PNG format. There also doesn't seem to be a lot of care put into uploading images that match the dimensions needed for the largest device either, with even tiny GIFs on sites like Discord often being full-sized images dozens of megabytes in size.

So, did the internet just decide that bandwidth and image sizes aren't a concern anymore? Did everyone just accept that every image is posted to one of the same 3 services and that everyone has a high-speed internet connection now?

It just feels weird after all the talk of performance in the 90s-2010s.

Ask HN: How do you keep AI coding agents in sync with a changing Figma file?

by rjvidentia · 13 minutes ago

I keep running into this: hand a Figma file to Claude Code/Cursor, get a good first implementation, then the design changes and the agent has no memory of what changed or why. Curious if others have hit this and what you're doing about it, if anything.

Ask HN: Why can I use macOS passkeys without biometrics

by 0xnico · 36 minutes ago

So this might be a stupid question but i notices that when i use my mac open or with a magic keyboard with a touchID field i get prompted to scan my finger to use a passkey. But whenever i use a secondary monitor and a non touchID keyboard all i need to do is press "continue" in the passkey dialoge.

I get that passkeys are bound to the device and being logged into it is itself some sort of auth it just seems wierd to me to have a security step that is so easy to circumvent that they might as well not ask for my fingerprint at all.
