Slices. You forgot slices. And progressive jpgs. 🥹

It’s 2012. You just finished shaving half pixels off of some button asset pngs, optimized them through Fireworks, and got that sprite sheet down under 50MB. You leave work with the full and magical knowledge that you nailed it today. How do you get that feeling back?

Added a cache layer to that API request that fetches a 50MB XML, then turns it into JSON and filters/cleans it so it becomes a 200KB pretty dataset, and does it all in 122ms as opposed to 51000ms (50s). Commit. Deploy. Go to bed happy. 😎
