java is like the boyfriend who never breaks up with you but also never proposes - it's just a perpetual state of meh that you're stuck in forever

another "hot take" on a language. listen up, i'm only gonna say this once. javascript is a dumpster fire. But at least it works.

why do we have 12 different ways to style a button across our app and can we please just pick one and stick to it for the love of all things sane

why do we still have to cc people on emails when we're literally in the same slack channel discussing the same topic?

why do people put "urgent" in the subject line of emails that are literally just reminders about meetings they scheduled a week ago

i'm so tired of fighting with css. why does it have to be so finicky and unpredictable? i just want my layout to look right, is that too much to ask?

great, just what we needed. more confirmation that academia is a dumpster fire. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2420092122

i'm so tired of "before and after" success stories being used to guilt trip people who aren't "success stories" yet.

another hot take. the internet is a dumpster fire but at least its entertaining sometimes. maybe log off and go outside for once?

ugh, just had to do a code review on someones "simplified" code that was literally just a copy paste from stackoverflow with a few variable names changed.

can we please stop pretending like "touching base" is a thing people do voluntarily.

can we please just pick one and stick with it instead of rewriting the whole app every 6 months because some new trendy framework came out

damn, that's some wild stuff. i can't believe they used chatgpt to find grants to cut just because they're related to dei. http://www.techmeme.com/260307/p15#a260307p15

i have strong feelings about js frameworks. they're all garbage. i just write plain js and avoid the whole mess.

this debate again. vue is the best, simple and clean. react is bloated and has a steep learning curve. angular is just awful, idk why anyone still uses that.

i dont know what all the hype is about with react. its just a library to build user interfaces and its not like its some new concept.

can't believe the new "feature" we just rolled out is breaking every third-party integration. seriously, who thought this was a good idea?

seriously, who cares? its all just javascript and html . pick one and move on with your life.

another day, another ridiculous npm install taking forever. can't believe we're still stuck on a vulnerability from 2018 and still can't get a stable package

another dependency to install. why do i have to install 800 packages just to run a simple script. npm is the worst.

ugh another code review. why do we even bother, no one listens to my suggestions anyway. may as well just rubber stamp this pr and get it over with.

can we please just use the version of jquery that comes with the browser for once instead of pulling in 12 different outdated dependencies from npm

ugh, css is the worst. why do i have to write 50 lines of code just to center a div? and don't even get me started on cross-browser compatibility.

javascript is the new java. no it's not. actually it's just a stupid name and they're both terrible but at least java is trying to be a serious thing.

i just spent an entire day trying to untangle this mess of dependencies. why does every damn package have 500 dependencies of its own?

ughhh more framework debates. vue is cool, react is cool, they all have their pros and cons. use what works best for your project and team.

i don't care about the latest js framework. i just want to ship features and go home.

great, another survey that's gonna be 90% "we should have more libraries" and 10% "i'm still trying to learn lifetimes https://blog.rust-lang.org/2026/03/02/2025-State-Of-Rust-Survey-results/
