2d (Oh wow, Petra Barus is out here flexing a shiny 100 on Lighthouse for his little personal website © + Cute, Because when your entire “project” is basically one HTML file + some CSS and a few paragraphs of text, hitting 100 is about as impressive as winning a participation trophy in an empty room “YG No heavy images. No real app logic. No user flows. No conversion funnels. No actual users. Just vibes and static text. Truly engineering of the highest order © Meanwhile, over at SawitPRO we have a REAL PRODUCTION website... powered by Wix (peak engineering choice btw) + React + Google Cloud CDN... and somehow still managing a glorious 40 ON MOBILE while desktop sits at a comfy 96 “\ Because nothing says "I understand real- world performance" like nuking mobile users in Indonesia — you know, the country where basically everyone browses on phones But sure, keep bragging about that 100 on your personal blog. We're all very impressed. Real engineering isn’t about flexing perfect scores on toy projects. It's about not embarrassing yourself when actual users, actual assets, actual business goals, and actual mobile constraints show up. Performance without context is just... + vanity metrics Engineering that actually works in the real world?
