Isn’t test driven development also error driven development though?

Amen

We must do these things so that the deep lore does not become legend and is, in time, forgotten…

Thank you!

Almost everything the author complains about has nothing to do with JS. The author is complaining about corporate, SaaS, ad-driven web design. It just so happens that web browsers run JavaScript.

In an alternate universe, where web browsers were designed to use Python, all of these same problems would exist.

But no, it’s fun to bag on JS because it has some quirks (as if no other languages do…), so people will use the word in the title of their article as nerd clickbait. Honestly, it gets a little old after a while.

Personally, I think JS and TS are great. JS isn’t perfect, but I’ve written in 5 programming languages professionally, at this point, and I haven’t used one that is.

I write a lot of back end services and web servers in Node.js (and Express) and it’s a great experience.

So… yeah, the modern web kind of sucks. But it’s not really the fault of JS as a language.

I believe the reason a function or method in an object does not need the “function” keyword has to do with the fact that JS is built on the prototype model and the fact that functions are first class in JS.

As the saying goes, “Everything is an object in JavaScript…” (which is not strictly true).

I assume you mean fascist propaganda over and above the right wing rabbit holes that already exist on YouTube….

Ugh, this is terrible.

Effectively?

Yeah, that’s what it means.

As someone paid to write code that interacts with D365… I see myself in this meme.
