I really enjoyed this read, as I am starting to grapple with some of this now. Do you have any resources for learning more about this stuff and these tradeoffs?

I forgot to mention my experience was in the northeastern USA in the 2000s-2010s. I’m happy you got a better standard of care than I did!

I am glad they’re screening for it. I was born to someone who had the virus, but didn’t know I had Hep C myself until I submitted myself to an exceptionally thorough STI testing panel. I say exceptional, because the standard ones I’d done t

This article I came across last month on “Framework-agnostic design systems” happens to use this Elena library and I think explains its use case well: https://piccalil.li/blog/framework-agnostic-design-systems-p...

I recently learned whiteboards can also use wet erase markers. This has the benefit of not getting utterly destroyed if you graze it slightly.

I refer to the documentation like my forefathers did. But I do happen to work with a language with good documentation (Elixir).

This attention to detail is what separates the mediocre frontend devs from the rest. How the heck do I improve our hiring process so we get more of you!!!

I recently watched a documentary[0] about the social media dangers for children. It mostly centers around narratives & interviews from a variety of people young and old, and in my opinion decently avoids trite pearl-clutching over vague

Having grown up in the bottom decile of poverty in the USA I can believe it. I credit my childhood's stability for much of my success in life. Sure my life, especially at home with my family, was broke, boring, uninspiring, not the lea

No one is prohibiting Alice from building the 10-story parking structure. The change is she's no longer required to build it.

Noise canceling wireless earbuds. I’ve had both a Jabra and a Beats… very happy with both. Nice for blocking out noise. No messy cables, can use with any device… I was skeptical, I liked my corded headphones fine. Just turns out these sound

Many apps with moderate interactivity don’t need thousands of lines of JavaScript. And using a backend framework for templating is not mutually exclusive to using a JS build system for helping transpile files and purge CSS and such.

Right on. Related, the junior FE devs want our web app to be a SPA because they think it’s the only idiomatic way to write reusable components (think a JSX-written React component). Often they’ve never used anything else (so like TFA mentio

excuse me, what? No, if I need to walk through late at night, I want to be safe. You have some options: - put the bedrooms away from the street - invest in some curtains - live somewhere more pastoral???

It sadly no longer shocks me, I've seen many "front-end" engineers rely on React as a sort of crutch for building UIs. Even for non-interactive UI. :(

OP, I think you’d really enjoy the book “A Philosophy of Software Design” by John Ousterhout. It discusses this topic at length. With respect to reducing complexity, you pretty much drew the same conclusion he did.
