   When people say oh it has a $30 Billion addressable market... how do they come up with these numbers? Startup CEO types love to throw around these numbers but some time they seem wildly optimistic, and their methodology is rarely explained.

   I like this idea a lot... My only concern is the hip factor in the app could drive a surge in the demand for the underlying securities rather than people investing based on value. This could create a situation where "green investing&qu

   Smaller footprint in my mind doesn't refer to download size which is minimal in either case but the footprint or impact on a project. IMO It is way harder to move off of jquery once it has been fully utilized throughout the project tha

   I tend to agree, and unless you have to support like IE prior to IE9 it will probably easily support all of your target browsers.

   I hear you. Personally I think learning the native APIs isn't so bad once you take the plunge. They are easily memorized with practice. Imagine not needing to go for that CDN link (or depending on some 3p for your website to work corre

    You don't have to use all of it though, right? You can choose to only only use the applicable parts: eg: ``` $('.container-element') .addClass('active'); // vs document.querySelectorAll('.my-class-s

    Do people still use jQuery? I thought the biggest advantage of this library back in the day was css selector access of DOM nodes (back when we only had getElementById, getElementsByClassName, and getElementsByTagName). This has been rolled

    I agree that those issues are easy enough to avoid. I think OP is saying that WebAsm allows for using languages that don't have these footguns. Perhaps there is some language they prefer to JS.

    I owe a lot of my career to people like Mike Bostock who have made open-source libraries like d3 free and available to the world. I'm sure I'm just one of countless developers who feel the same like me. Eternally grateful

    This is a big risk for cloud native applications sure they have the benefit of built-in fault tolerance and replication with many of their services, but good luck moving quickly to another provider when they shut you off.
