> That’s a pretty good question actually, and difficult to address. I try and push new concepts/tech as a way of education on what’s coming.
Thanks =) ... I'm always disparaged with HN when you say something that can be viewed as not supportive. (even -1 votes feels like "oh come on guys!")
I think the thing that scared me the most out of that video was using things that are approx. 90% globally supported for layout.
Totally agree with "know your audience". Specifically, I teach the habit of look it up on MDN, then caniuse, then have VMs/devices ready-to-go and test it even further.
Simple rendering/functionality issues have turned into legal action against my past employers. Ex: if you cause even a 5-10% drop in ecommerce conversions due to what shoulda been a simple CSS fix, and that goes unnoticed for a month, that's a potential lawsuit/termination with very "black and white provable damages". Unfortunately, I've lived this =(
It's worth noting that I work on conversion-based web solutions that are "mom and pops" small, all the way up to "if it's down for 1 minute we just lost thousands of dollars"... but really I've learned to be incredibly careful with both. Every solution I build online at some point means $ even if it's non-direct conversions (ie: purely informational, no sales online sales funnel, etc).
