@elonmusk @cb_doge Elon getting cringier and cringier.

I recently wasted so much time switching something my JavaScript app uses because "it's what the community is moving to".

How much my users care: 0

No one told me to upgrade my app's deps. I didn't spend enough time asking myself if this would improve customers' experience.

Meanwhile, I haven't written any Go for 6 weeks but I can bet you nothing new has happened there.

@radiatoryang Hey, on "A Certain Slant of Light" Quake map, I can't figure out how to spawn in the last 2 monsters. Can you confirm that these two aren't spawnable? Trying to do a nightmare 100% run for Youtube.

@mrtaufner Took almost all of my ammo in my Nightmare 100% run (lol)

@mrtaufner Okay, I admit defeat. How do you get into the secret computer room in Edge of Empire from QBJ?! :)

[pmilkman @PMilkman]

Nevermind! Found it.

@Elliot_K_Hudson Hello! Are you the author of The Foundations of Cruelty in the Quake Brutalist Map Jam? If so, I've been searching for forever to find 7/7 secrets. Only one left to find. Do you remember where those are?

@laurenboebert @elonmusk Pretty sure they were just saying it would be the end of Twitter.

When I started getting into programming, all these massive frameworks and CLI tools were so intimidating. JavaScript was such a breath of fresh air in comparison. Just add a script tag and off you go. I sometimes worry we've recreated the environment that almost scared me off.

Probably the most well put argument I’ve seen about this.

[Andrea Giammarchi 🍥 @WebReflection]

think about it: PHP has been serverless forever. Every page spins the PL and that’s it, nothing is shared across requests.

When Node.JS arrived, one of the main advantages was to never need to bootstrap JS or modules each time, hence win in performance.

Are we paying attention?

Web development is nothing but a restaurant:

HTML
• Bricks, Pillars

CSS
• Paints, Furniture

JavaScript
• Electricity connection

DOM
• Reconstruction

API
• Menu card

Server
• Waiter

Database
• Kitchen

It's a myth that JavaScript is hard.

JavaScript is one of the most friendly and approachable programming languages.

My yoga teacher always starts class with this line:

"Congrats. The hardest part is over. You showed up."

I feel like that mindset applies to most other things.

Worrying about a task often is far worse than the task itself. Starting is the hardest part.
