Not only adverts - animated adverts. They are serving data from a free API and looking to piggy back off it. Not only is my assessment not "poor", it is too kind to the developers.

Sync had an awesome redesign of their app recently but ruined it by embedding ads into it. Some of the ads are even animated when reading the comments. As a result, I don't feel bad for the developer of Sync - they had it coming really.

I have never used it on a large project. I have never liked it for anything I have tried to use it for.

Hardly a wild take though, is it? You're in the context of "I am mostly self-taught (and not even the best 'student' in that context, haha) so I'm sure I just lack the overall knowledge base/big-picture understanding" and you come in and say view = func(state).

Here's how the React docs introduce it:

"React is a JavaScript library for rendering user interfaces (UI). UI is built from small units like buttons, text, and images. React lets you combine them into reusable, nestable components."

Hopefully you can appreciate the difference.

Based on planning sessions I've been in - yes. There's lots that will just passively sit there until called upon.

I would move to the USA if I could. As a European is that possible - e.g. don't you need a green card?

I am inherently passionate about the things I do. That doesn't mean doing over time. It means that when we're in a planning meeting I am contributing and trying to get the best outcome. When I write code, I clarify requirements and I write the code to a high standard following recommended practices. I do static analysis on the code and fix it. I test it before it goes to QA.

Not for a promotion but because that is why I am there. Anything less would be mind numbingly boring.

Embrace it for awhile and it really is special.

You've a function that returns JSX which is your HTML where you can use Javascript to reference functions/variables (e.g. the state variables)

One of the key parts is that you can break it all down into different files/functions that return jsx so you can isolate complicated parts

happens to lots of stuff and is not react specific

I think that view = func(state) is an unnecessary complicated way to describe frontend development.

I saw a course on GPT yesterday lol it has already started

My favorite part of this story is that someone like Steve Yegge didn't contribute much to the conversation.

What is DHCPv6?

This will be terrible for introverts, minorities, people who don't like to be on video but great for attractive people, people who like to make videos, fakers

Also, the name is creepy, to me, for the following reasons:

* using the word date in a professional setting

* comparisons to tinder

* the candy part seems falsely alluring

* the candy part makes me think "don't take candy from strangers"
