I assume you bite it like an apple… like an absolute psychopath

2 is ‘truthy’, or rather, not ‘falsy’.

I’m not even kidding.

But they aren’t wrong

I love javascript. It’s so insane in such fun ways to prevent itself from throwing errors. It’s got like a naive cute charm to it ya know?

Seppuku exception handling is wild

Javascript has its warts and quirks, but it’s fine. I hated it until Typescript came along. That way you can at least get some sanity checks and keep the language generally in the rails of normalcy.

Like it or not, the browser basically only knows how to run javascript, and using another language to compile wasm is almost certainly going to be more headache than whatever gain you might get.

However, what you seem to dislike is the UX of modern web apps which is barely related to any of that.

I’ve heard a statistic that goes something like: If you were to just not exist, you would only save about 1 second worth of emissions globally. Whatever individual action you do to reduce emissions from your lifestyle only go so far.

And like others have mentioned, there are the other, less legal forms of direct action.

If it was that normalized, a lot of the phrasing would have a lot more slang and simpler terminology.

I’m just giving a basic example of people being motivated outside of money. There are other lines of work that are easier or pay better or both.

Why do people become teachers in the US? Certainly isn’t “for the money”.

Alright, if they’re having a romp in the afterlife in some capacity, they aren’t ghosts. There’s a kind of underlying implication they’re sticking around for some worldly purpose or reason. Often this is used for metaphor about moving on in your life (or rather afterlife).

I’m pretty sure this post is designed to kill the soul. I am made slightly worse for witnessing this abortion of an implementation and I will never be quite the same again.

For a second I thought that 9 ton amount was for a single hippo and was shocked.

Try writing your backend with browser limitations and see what kind of wild wrappers you make to keep yourself sane.
