There is some good food for thought here. One thing I’ll also say: building static websites and building big interactive web apps are two points on a LONG spectrum. Yet for some reason online discourse ignores this. This enormous spectrum g

In the first instance, even if you’re right and the manager thinks team lead is the problem here, it’s quite the leap to go straight to “questions his leadership qualities” over a single interpersonal conflict or difference in viewpoint. It

There is, I think, a sort of innocent arrogance that comes with people who boldly claim that renowned, well-adopted frameworks or technologies are straight up bad or a non-improvement over yesterday’s tech. That’s not to say popularity guar

I take issue with comments like this, firing off inflammatory criticism based on nothing but guesswork and extremely tenuous “deductions”. There’s like, 8 extremely debatable assumptions here. Reading between the lines is fair but architect

The negativity oozing out of this article undermines the main points (of which there’s some good ones). Belittling and admonishing an entire cohort of your peers because they like a tech you don’t is not helpful. I think React has some fund

Without proper press access how is there any real accountability? Leaks and whistleblowers do not form in a vacuum. Less press means less oversight, fewer connections built, fewer threads pulled. And even so, not all Pentagon business is al

The "be offensive" goading only happened long after Grok had already started going off the rails to pretty innocuous queries. This is not the first time Grok has exhibited this behaviour either (i.e. the random white genocide rant

Indeed, and like Theo, I finished the video with little sympathy towards WP Engine. I think Matt's trademark argument is sound. But as Theo pointed out, the public was not privy to this long running dispute, and Automattic's drast

Having sat through this, the main thing that irked me was Matt's lack of empathy towards impacted users. Every time Theo tried to talk about the negative community impact or the perceived stability of the platform as a whole, Matt for

I ask this earnestly, but have you tried it? It most certainly can write a pretty huge variety of code. Yes, it does often have errors, and it struggles with novel or complex problems (as the article points out), but for well known language

I think you've accidentally proven his point. Half the things you've mentioned have been around for half a decade at this point, and pretty much all of them have existed for at least 2+ years. Frontend is still a fast moving space

This is a disappointing and highly inflammatory article. There’s a nuanced and interesting discussion to be had here but the author chooses to demonise and insult entire communities. Does this rhetoric help anyone? Making highly interactive

Oh, come on. So the guy uses some harmless exaggeration when selling himself on his own personal website & you're taking him to programmer jail over it? Do you frequently launch into personal attacks on authors whose articles you d

Melbourne is a positive outlier and not at all representative of the rest of Australia. Finding senior devs in Brisbane is an insanely arduous process and its not uncommon to see positions take 6+ months to fill (at least at the places I&#x
