Site's 79 pages share 32 JavaScript files, but two identical animation libraries are served under different names

An audit of a 79-page site's sitemap found that every page loads from just 32 distinct JavaScript files. Two pairs of those files were found to hold effectively the same animation library, with byte counts matching exactly and differences limited to build debug IDs and numeric module IDs. Because the duplicates have different URLs, a visitor moving from one page to the homepage has to re-download code their browser already has. The three legal pages avoid the animation library only because their compact footer contains no animated wordmark. The author also notes that a bundle served only to legacy browsers inflates the transfer figures.

How to Compress a PDF on Mac Without Running the Filter Twice

Preview's File > Export menu includes a Reduce File Size filter that shrinks PDFs locally on a Mac, without uploading anything. Users should save the result under a new name to keep the original intact, since Apple warns compressed copies may have lower quality. Testing showed large savings for scanned or photo-heavy files, while text-only PDFs barely shrink. Running the filter a second time backfired, growing one test file from 4.3 MB to 23.5 MB. Checking the output file size before sending is recommended.
