Just another very conforming & super conventional person with a great interest in tech + literature. NOT an Illuminati

There's not a lot you can contribute unless you worked on the ticket. Notice how the only example you came up with was refactoring.

This was more important back in the day but now linters and formatters are mainstream.

The best time to code-review is at the beginning.

I doubt it but even then it doesn’t extrapolate any further.

As a dev, it’s your job to tell the client what’s good for them and it sure isn’t this.

That's what I tried to tell students at a bootcamp, but then I never got hired back. They could just fuck off whenever they wanted to go play mario kart, and I tried to tell them that's not what they were paying them for.

No clue if any made it

that crap is solved in a lot of places, jQuery is no longer the only library, and you don't need to support legacy browsers as much anymore, if at all

Companies are getting more security-conscious because of all the hacks and the pain of keeping old browser support is no longer outweighing the risks of upgrading is my theory.

Adding my voice to the consensus that this article is trash. As always, the blackest of falsehoods are dressed up in platitudes.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted. They used to mail me the criterion collection when I was in high school. Obviously it's not that now.

Formal meetings should only be used for either parties or emergencies, and parties are always emergencies, so they take precedence.

Ideally!
