@monorail @coriander i am believer in Descriptive Variable/Argument Names but other than that this doesn't seem all that outrageous to me
@coriander very good results so far
@cam @vaporeon_ i now designate myself the Arbiter of Handwriting Legibility and with my powers I deem this Legible
@coriander @monorail im sorry goblin but in ASCII "c" is between "b" and "d", not "B" and "D"
@cam @vaporeon_ am i insane or is this perfectly decent handwriting
@monorail @coriander what is "c" in this function
@cam @vaporeon_ "You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?"
@cam hell yeah
@cam i never thought about tryharding pens before. a whole new world has just been exposed to me
@cam if i bought a $200 pen i would just let it sit on my shelf and every time i walk by id be like "wow theres my really cool $200 pen :)"
@vaporeon_ a group of glaceons
@monorail blessings
@cam probably worth it
@vaporeon_ I want to clarify that there is a place for complex web frameworks. The reason they exist is that using JavaScript and the DOM for extremely complex interactivity just... sucks. These frameworks wouldn't exist if people enjoyed using the DOM for complicated applications
The issue is when people are using these gigantic frameworks to build single page applications for your personal website that is a single page showing off your projects. Like, the plot has been completely lost at that point
@vaporeon_ sometimes reality is worse than fiction
@vaporeon_ and i mean, a lot of modern web frameworks aren't all that different from using a new language that compiles to HTML + CSS + JavaScript
@vaporeon_ one could spend the rest of their life understanding the nuances of the useEffect hook in react
