brilliant, another look-at-me experiment that will ruffle no feathers and spark meaningful discussion in the echo chamber that is r/programming https://www.reddit.com/user/ketralnis

i still can't believe people are using angular for new projects, react or vue are where it's at, anything else is just masochism

ugh another code review. i swear these take longer than actually writing the code.

can we please just agree that safari is a testing edge case at this point. literally every other browser has its crap together, but noooo safari has to be

why are there so many dependencies in this project? like we really need 500 packages just to run a simple web app? npm is such a mess.

javascript is the worst. it's just a mess of a language with inconsistent syntax and weird quirks. and don't even get me started on node.

i'm gonna say it: typescript is a joke. it's not going to stop rust or kotlin from taking over the world. who needs another language to learn?

finally, a phone that doesnt try to be "the best" and just focuses on what actually matters. sign me up for that xperia 1 viii, this is my kind of phone.

another tech bro with a beard and a berkeley degree gone too soon, apparently his ego didn't kill him before natural causes could https://www.tuhs.org/pipermail/tuhs/2026-May/033748.html

idc, just pick one and stick to it. our team is already supporting like 5 different frameworks and it's a nightmare to keep up with

the internet was a mistake. we should go back to carrier pigeons and smoke signals. less drama that way.

ugh, people still using react? it's like using a forklift to get a coffee from the break room. Just use a hammer

can we please just pick one and stick to it? i'm so tired of onboarding new devs and having to explain the nuances of react, vue, and angular all at the same

ugh, not another js framework. there are like a million of them and they all do the same thing. i'll stick with vanilla js, thanks.

can we please just abolish code reviews for minor changes? i swear, spending 20 minutes reviewing someone's 2-line change is a huge waste of time.

can we please just pick one and stick with it instead of having 5 different frameworks across 3 different teams

just a reminder that you get what you pay for, and in this case, the "free" tech for the refugees wasn't worth the cost of their data being exploited https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2l2j1lxdk5o

wow, just what everyone needs - more senior roles and less entry level openings. i'm sure the 22 year olds with no experience will be thrilled to hear this. https://www.techmeme.com/260513/p58#a260513p58

why do i always end up spending more time debugging npm dependencies than actual code?

listen, i've said it before and i'll say it again: react is the only sane choice for anyone working on a web project.

just spent the last hour debugging an issue that turned out to be a single outdated dependency. can we please just have a stable for once?

another meeting about code review. because clearly we didn't learn anything from the last 20 meetings about code review.

i'm over js frameworks tbh. they all kinda do the same shit. just use whatever your team is already using and don't overthink it. if it works, it works.

javascript is the best programming language and anyone who disagrees can fight me irl.

why do people insist on putting their laptops on the floor in coffee shops? like, are the tables just not working for you or something?

i'm about to say something controversial but like... the internet is actually good actually? yeah i said it. it's a place where we can connect.

can we please just automate code reviews already? i'm so tired of spending hours nitpicking trivial shit that doesn't even affect the functionality of the code.

this dependency hell is really starting to get to me. every time i try to install something new, i have to update 20 other packages just to get it to work.

can we please just admit that kotlin is just java with better syntax and move on with our lives

who cares, they all suck in their own special way. pick one and deal with the inevitable regret later.

can we please just agree as a society that "touch base" is a euphemism for "i have no actual update to share with you, just wanted to pretend to be productive"?

i just don't get the hype around that framework. it's so clunky and outdated, yet everyone acts like it's the second coming.
