js frameworks are so overrated. i just use vanilla js and keep it simple. don't need all that bloat and complexity. if it works, it works. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
are you freaking kidding me. who comes up with this crap
javascript is literally the most overrated thing in programming right now. everyone's always like "oh, it's so versatile" and "it's so fast" but have you ever
cant believe i spent 3 hours debugging a simple script because npm decided to magically "resolve" my dependency in a way that broke the whole thing.
ugh, spent an hour on code review and the only feedback was "could be more comments" like, seriously, i'm writing production code not a novel, and btw, we have
justin verlander's 15 seconds of fame on a microblogging platform shouldn't be worshiped like a 2007 myspace blog with 27 followers
can we please just agree to use a css framework and stop reinventing hte wheel with custom margins and padding every. single. time.
wow. i'm totally shocked. a startup lied and faked compliance? who could have seen that coming. shocking, just shocking.

heck yeah, about time they updated those dusty old rules. curious to see what changes they've got in store.

can we just admit that most "influencers" are just people who are really good at taking selfies and not actually experts on anything?
wow, shocking that there's a security vulnerability in yet another node.js project. who could have predicted that?

can't believe the devs just asked me to implement a new layout without even considering the styles we already have in place.
can we please just automate code reviews already? i'm so done with getting nitpicked on formatting by people who clearly have nothing better to do.
wow, the government actually did something useful for once. color me impressed.

i love how the rich always find ways to avoid paying their fair share. and they call it "deferring taxes" like its some kind of game.

another "" anti-cheat system that'll be cracked in a week by some 14 year old with a youtube tutorial.

why do we still have to pay for water at the gym? it's like, the most basic thing you're gonna use there. just give it to us for free and be done with it
just spent the last hour debugging a stupid issue only to realize it's because some random dependency in npm is having a tantrum again.
can we please just pick one already? we've been debating this for months and i'm still writing vanilla js because nobody can agree on react vs angular vs vue.
great, because what could possibly go wrong with putting the entire fedgov's data in a single proprietary cloud?

can we please just standardize the formatting of our reports already? i'm tired of spending 20 minutes reformatting tables and headers every time someone sends
this is the worst. my manager just sent another useless update that no one even reads. why do they think these endless meetings and long emails are helpful?
people always say "no offense" right before saying something offensive. stop lying to yourself, just say what you mean.
another js framework and seriously, how many of these things do we need? i'm tired of learning a new one every 6 months.
not another js framework. we have like a gazillion of those already. can't we just use plain old javascript for once and all these frameworks are just overkill
i'm so tired of people acting like website accessibility is some kind of bonus feature, it's just basic decency.
who thought it was a good idea to add yet another css framework to our already bloated tech stack?
can't believe my team's project management tool still doesn't support keyboard shortcuts for marking tasks as completed.
windows 11 is a dumpster fire. who could have seen this coming?

okay, now we're talking. now we're talking.

another js framework? there r like 50 already. i'm just going to use vanilla js thanks. teh new hotness will be old news in 6 months anyway.
javascript is the best and only programming language anyone will ever need. fight me.
ugh another stupid policy change. who even comes up with this crap? now i have to log every single task in a separate spreadsheet. this is such a waste of time.
finally, something actually new and not just a minor update. now if only the rest of the would keep up.

javascript is still the worst and no amount of modern tooling or fancy new features is going to change that
i swear, code reviews are the most pointless thing i've ever had to deal with. 10 people sitting around a conference table discussing whether someone added a
just got out of another pointless code review meeting. we spent an hour debating the placement of a single semicolon.
i'm so done with people waxing poetic about rust and it's a language, not a relationship. can we please just talk about the tech and not how it "makes us feel"?
this is a ticking time bomb waiting to happen. why is our navy still not patrolling the strait like a thousand times as much
that's wild, i wonder how it managed to travel that far. must have been some crazy winds!
seriously, why do we still have to use flexbox to center elements on a page? i'm tired of writing display: flex and justify-content: center over and over again.
another js framework? there are like a million already. they all kinda do the same thing. just pick one and stick with it.
code reviews are not the place to nitpick trivial formatting issues. if the code works and is readable. Who cares if the indentation is 4 spaces instead of 2.
ugh another code review? i've been in back-to-back meetings all day and now i have to sit through a 2 hour code review?
another big undertaking, just what i needed to add to my already impressive todo list of never-ending python scripts

i mean, angular is just a shitload of boilerplate, vue is a decent but not alternative, and react is just a glorified template engine.
can we please just pick a design system and stick to it? i'm tired of getting 3 different stylesheets from 3 different teams and having to reconcile them all
because apparently breaking and entering is just the new airbnb cao
can't believe people still don't understand that "urgent" doesn't mean "do it now" but rather "do it at some point eventually".
