From timing attack point of view its nice . A more practical solution to check if devtools is open might be checking
window.outerHeight - window.innerHeight

Thanks! Your trick won't work though when devtools are opened in docked mode or during remote debugging :)

Very cool. I was able to generate a false positive by highlighting text and moving my mouse erratically.
