    What? I don't even know what you're talking about, and I've written mountains of vanilla CSS code in big projects.

    I used to use it, like over 20 years ago! Mozilla Suite was too slow for my taste and I only reached for it if Dillo couldn't render a page :) IIRC I stopped using it when Firefox …

    AFAIK Dillo is GTK-based, at least the UI part, so I don't think so.

    You don't have any stored passwords? Any private keys in your `.ssh/`? DB credentials in some config files? And the list goes on and on.

    I've also worked with CSV (barely) and SVN (more extensively) and I was blown away by Git. You can have real branches! Many of them! You don't have to manually merge them! It's dec…

    I think it looks nice, but: - Scrolling is unbearable on Firefox/Android. - The icons are way too "noisy" I would remove them. Also, posts without icon look "misplaced". Other than…

    I had to laugh out loud when I read that sentence. Really? I write code to pay my bills and sometimes just for fun. Trying to do everything "the most optimal way possible" is going…

    Yes, I was wrong on several levels. First and foremost I was wrong thinking that I was smarter than others — that's not even how intelligence works. Second I was wrong being so stu…

    I did that when I was young and naive. I'll tell you why I did it. I thought I was very smart. Like, really really smart, maybe the smartest programmer in the team. And as such my …

    Yes, you are technically correct and yet absolutely irrelevant to the conversation, just adding meaningless noise. Also, there are many linters that also do formatting, blurring th…

    He got famous because of "redux" and "hot module reload" and then he got hired by Meta and started working on react. This was before the hook era.

    Well, there's RabbitMQ and the rest of the message queues out there. But I don't know if those fall in your definition of "graceful".

    The "zones" are way too big. For example working in west Germany is quite different to working in east Germany. The same goes for north and south Spain, north and south Italy, and …

    No, you're not missing anything. Anyone programming outside of the USA is well aware of localisation and how to use it.

    If you don't have RDBMS wisdom and program an application around a RDBMS, your application is going to suck. No ORM or framework is going to save you.

    If I call a restaurant and an AI answers, I'm going to call somewhere else. I just don't like talking to machines. I'll happily tap through the app, though.
