One of the biggest success stories in recent times where language support has made tooling awesome is JSX. The success of JSX shows that developers are happy to write HTML inside code, and there are clear benefits of doing so compared to us

Betting so much of one's soul into a consumer play is a risky decision. The pay-outs are huge, but the odds are enormous, as bad as a lottery. Consumers decide to use a product based on intangibles; brand recognition, emotions, enterta
