>Not exactly rewriting a fucking C compiler in Rust from scratch or whatever they claimed it did. Proof that web dev is harder than compiler dev ;) For real though, I do think web has a higher cognitive load than other types of programming. I always thought it was weird, but the stuff people said was hard (making an online multiplayer game) turned out to be way easier than the stuff people said was easy (I still have no idea how React works after learning it 9 times). Also I think compilers are surprisingly straightforward. At least unoptimized ones. It's about translation, which is basically a functional thing. Whereas frontend web dev is all about infinite global implementation details screwing each other over in real time with race conditions.
