how old? 60+? 50+? 40+? 30+? 20+? (I'm serious, sometimes even 25 year old devs feel old).

There will be. Maybe I will port my Atom plugin ( https://atom.io/packages/atom-lupa ) to VSCode or maybe I'll write from scratch whole thing. I don't know when exactly though (now I'm making something b

It depends. In many cases you would be right, in many other cases you wouldn't. It depends on many factors: - what is the problem? (some problems are really hard, some problems are trivial and just seem hard) - is developer experienced

I begin to think that nowadays websites are just designed for "zooming in" in mind (very small fonts, too many space etc.). So maybe we shouldn't complain. These websites are just meant to be zoomed. Although some web develop

I did debug NodeJS backend (multiplayer games) with Electron. It was very cool because I was able to see internal server state on simple HTML dashboard I made (for example I was able to see map with player positions or some important game v

Yeah. You're right that even classes allow for great amount of dynamics. I've seen classes with decorator annotation and decorator can change classes as much as it wants. I've also seen patterns like: class Foo {... } /&

There was not such thing like ES3 module syntax. This is just programming pattern many people used: https://addyosmani.com/resources/essentialjsdesignpatterns/b... It was a great idea back then, but that was never

1. Sass is not as needed as it used to be (native CSS variables, PostCSS, CSS Modules, Radium, inline styles etc.). But of course many users prefer Sass. But Sass in its CSS syntax (SCSS) is (if I'm correct) just super set of CSS. You

Syntactic sugar? But `createClass` is a lot worse syntactic sugar than ES6 classes. React.createClass (and angular.directive or similar guerilla solutions) are harder to analyse statically. And without static analysis you won't have pr

It's just vanilla Javascript, not some "foreign way". Checking `"somestring".indexOf(something) != -1` is common idiom in JavaScript because function indexOf returns -1 when there is no match. Just look for the defi

Interesting. I have also seen other solutions which address this problem: 1. https://github.com/facebook/fbjs library that Facebook uses in React: you have @providesModule annotations in modules, and you can write e.g.

I mean code style doesn't matter in JavaScript world. If I was developed in Python I would follow PEP8. But this just proves the point - code style doesn't matter to me much, so I could follow some other's codestyle, just to

Code style doesn't matter but tools like Eslint (or other linters) that can enforce some unimportant stuff, can also be very huuuuuge help for JavaScript programming. They can point most JS errors, for example.

Besides I think everybody who e.g. makes some side-projects, or is active in open source is in fact amateur in the sense of "a person who does something (such as a sport or hobby) for pleasure and not as a job" :)

This is the old truth - premature abstraction is a root of all evil (I know original quote was "optimization", but isn't an abstraction just some "architectural optimization"? ;) On the other hand: I often see copy

The biggest advantage of this progress is that there is a lot experimentation with new kind of tools (for example Redux Dev Tools. This is fascinating. I mean Redux is great, but the fact that there are dedicated dev tools for this? Wow. I&

No. It's not creator-janitor thing. It's rather the situation that programmer A makes a huge technical debt, and programmer B must pay him off. It's poor code design, poor code management. It's more like: - irresponsible
