Please try to explain further why something is a good or bad idea. Share your experience. I'm sure your criticism could be useful for many. In my experience with React, this kind of approach produces much more readable and elegant code

This trope makes me quite sad... I'd love to learn other languages and stacks! It's just that, often, it isn't a worthy use of my time. All that time used into learning C++ and Qt would be better used in making and improving

I hate emoji too, but I think it's even more childish to care so much and be so judgemental about how other people use emoji. Using emoji everywhere is very much in vogue and many people like it. It doesn't make you childish. We (
