    I can assure you that doing it in TS would not have been any slower and you would have gained all the benefits that static type checking brings with it. VueJS 3 in particular is mu…

    This is so ass-backwards and you're practically twisting yourself over backwards a dozen times to somehow try to argue that this wasn't malicious. He basically poisoned the library…

    Idk if you're still talking about Germany specifically or more global trends. Regarding Germany: gun control is a non-partisan issue and not even remotely part of the public discou…

    Careful, you might trigger about half of HN with your proposal of readable code and small functions. This is literally always the right answer. Create a self-explanatory function o…
