I remember the idea being that he wasn't a real person or a group of people. Fun times. Hope you're doing well TJ.

I never believed that rumor. Coders can go through hyper productive phases where they are making something that never existed before -- such as server side routers in JavaScript.

We forget that there was a time when JavaScript was just for manipulating the DOM.

Hope he's well and getting a good night's rest tonight. I know I should, but here I am typing into hacker news.

There are recent updates on his Instagram: https://instagram.com/tjholowaychuk?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

Thanks for sharing. I'm glad he's still posting.

Back in university I looked up to Feross, TJ and Matt Deslauriers. Fond memories of hacking together a Node.js project at a hackathon and launching something on a free Heroku dyno.

he moved on.

:( The idea of moving on from programming makes me sad. I suppose for some people it's a job, but to me giving up programming would be like giving up on writing poetry or playing music.

I once upon a time burned out on photography and look where it led me. People change, and we should celebrate it.
