1. There is math for how long it takes to send even one packet over satellite connection (~1600ms). Its a weak argument for the 14kb rule since there is no comparison with a larger website. 10 packets wont necessarily take 16 seconds.

2. There is a mention that images on webpage are included in this 14kb rule. In what case are images inlined to a page’s initial load? If this is a special case and 99.9% of images don’t follow it, it should be mentioned at very least.

If you have an actual physical zoom lens, cropping a zoomed out photo produces a different result than zooming in with the lens in the first place. Even when your camera/sensor doesn't move. It's all physics yo

I’m not personally offended but admittedly tired of reading this same stuff every week. Maybe I should read less comments, though, as HN is starting to feel like a groundhog week. Luckily not on the same level as Reddit yet.

Tired of hearing this pointless rant every time. Especially since this portfolio is something fresh and not just a cookie cutter WP theme with annoying animations. Web itself can be art or culture or whatever, if it takes 10 seconds to realize how to use it on your phone then big fucking deal.

- Removing a paypal account and adding another one is not reflected when creating a new ad - the old one is still there and new is nowhere to be see . Upon using the old one, ad got accepted normally but it wasn’t shown to any user. No error messages or anything. The ad went to some limbo state where it couldn’t be removed, edited or paused from the ads manager, but curiously could be deleted from mobile instagram app.

- Reels (a feature > 1yr old) can not be advertised from desktop dashboard, only from mobile instagram app. The reels or their statistics are not visible at all in business.facebook.com.

Stuff like this shouldn’t happen on any production service.

Oh and another fun one was an ad published after my client had a fundraiser for NGO aiding children in Ukraine. Results for the ad (it didnt relate to the fundraiser) showed ~15k clicks and 0 completed goals. Statistics happily stated that 99.9% of the budget was used by android users in Ukraine. Audience was all EU countries. Somehow it seemed a bit suspicious to me, but not to FB. Raising an issue about the results to FB is as useful as complaining about them to my dog.
