Page loads then immediately transitions to some &quot;Not Found&quot; page. Some kind of error going on both on my Chromium browser with various extensions and my Safari browser with zero extensions or changes from preference defaults.<p>This is a Medium article at any rate[0], perhaps link should be changed if many more others are also experiencing this problem<p>[0]<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;cacher-app&#x2F;how-js-benchmarks-lie-fa35fa989ee0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;medium.com&#x2F;cacher-app&#x2F;how-js-benchmarks-lie-fa35fa98...</a><p>---<p>That said, this sorta strikes me like how apparently you can&#x27;t actually write ASM against modern CPU architectures and think presume it maps one-to-one with what the machine is doing at runtime due to things like speculative branching amongst others.<p>V8 (and I guess other JIT compilers) would be similar as you can&#x27;t guess the optimizations ahead of time in many cases.
