> Apple was said to be the high priests of user experience
People say that, I always wonder how much of that was true. It took me three days to figure out how to get my iPad Touch to stop repeating a single song. I don't know how a single song got selected on repeat.

> I worked with a developer who would send screenshots of a text error rather than just copy and paste it
I worked with someone who did this too. Would also commonly send screenshots of code we were discussing.
"Dude, I need to see this code in context, can't yous end me a link to the file / line in Github?"

> in your 5 MB angular app
Related anecdote: I just did a production build of the Angular 13 app I'm working on and it was 686K. That includes all the Angular framework, and a component library which includes a data table.

> But the way react deals with state makes it so much easier to build and maintain complex applications.
Real question; not being snippy...
I didn't think React had any state management included. A lot of people I've spoken to seem to use Redux, a third party library for handling state.
Is my understanding incorrect?

> You hear horror stories about men being falsely accused and getting their lives ruined
While I have heard these stories, they are all anecdotes that I wasn't able to verify. Can you give any real cases?
