You know what's funny? When I was finishing a Backbone.js job (circa 2014? I can't recall) I looked at Angular and React and my conclusion, based on thought and research, was that while React looked better in the moment Angular was conceptually superior and would be the future (or the future would be something like Angular but better). That was really a thing I thought, I posted it too and people were like "hmm yes good point." I know I've been wrong before and since but for whatever reason that one stuck with me as a humbling moment, I had it all backwards.

      As an atheist I realize this makes absolutely zero sense, but I can't help but feel that "abusing" the power in such a way would somehow "jinx" it and cause it to backfire!
