Nested ternaries are horrible. They add an additional burden to think about operator precedence, which is actually a hard thing especially if you switch between languages regularly. They are harder to extend for those reasons and often it i

Just yesterday I thought it is really annoying that mobile browsers put the address bar on top, even worse if it is moving in and out. That way it is impossible come close to a native look and feel. Now FF puts the address bar on bottom. Qu

I honestly never believed that digital devices are good to take notes, especially if you have to reflect them. Digital devices distract you on so many levels, it is hard to believe people even started doing it.

The main point here is worth a broader discussion. Part of the problem is that we tend to hide behind mental concepts that a ambiguous, incomplete or just bad. DRY is a awful "thing" (a decree at best). In the worst interpretation

This article was initially inspiring and interesting, but eventually I think it is a mud of "sound lies". I like the idea that human cognition has a huge impact on our lives and it certainly has. But trying to pull off a new pradi

React and friends made themself show up on every party. Even if the model isn't remotely appropriate for the taks at hand, you have to argue about them. I am convinced that half the modern frontend devs don't even know how a &quot
