Obtaining a Perfect Score with Google PageSpeed Insights (in WordPress or other systems)

My personal blog (http://30.jonathanbell.ca) just got a little uglier and a little faster.

I recently set a lofty goal for my blog. I wanted the site to achieve a perfect score (100/100) with Google PageSpeed Insights. Google PageSpeed Insights is a (very picky) tool to help front-end people make their pages load quickly in the browser.

A lot of people will tell you that you don't need a perfect score from Google to have a fast and performant website. I would tend to agree – especially after executing these changes 😓. You don't need to have a 100/100 score in order to have a speedy, modern, and accessible website. Still, I was hungry to try for the 100/100 score! After I got going on this idea 100 seemed like the holy grail. I wanted it. I hungered for it. After a lot of fussing, I got it. Well, ok.. I scored 99/100 but you'll see why I lost one point
