It's very opinionated compared to the alternatives and it has a "batteries included" kind of approach. There's a "right" way to do things and you don't need to pull in a lot of third party libraries for ba

Yeah, I have no idea what that person is talking about. I'm in the same situation as you; we can compile hundreds of thousands of lines of Java code in dozens of different jars in less time than it takes for one of our frontend javascr

Ukraine is a democracy. It's not up to us or anyone else to "ensure their neutrality" if that's not what they want. We already refused to allow them into NATO under the guise of "ensuring their neutrality" and

You seem to be completely ignoring the lack of legitimacy and popular support that the authoritarian regimes in both Iraq and Afghanistan had, as well as the human rights violations that were commonplace while they were in power. The war in
