Episode description

Andreas Taranetz is a software engineer and lecturer at the University of Vienna. He creates a lot of educational content around Web Performance Optimization. For the past seven years, he has also operated Wahlkabine, Austria's top website, for matching one's political views with the parties that are up for election.
This episode was an amazing flashback - reminding us about the time when Steve Souders - the "godfather" of Web Performance Optimization - educated web developers about optimizing CSS, JavaScript, and server-side roundtrips.
Tune in and learn why Web Performance is still such an important topic, how it relates to sustainability, why you should cache on every layer, and what the Static Site Paradox really is!
