I'm a big fan of React but it took me a year after its introduction for me to get it and like it. What particularly did the trick for me was one of Pete Hunt's talks he gave a year after release acknowledging the confusion and exp

Thanks for reminding me about lobste.rs. Last time I checked it out there weren't many comments which didn't inspire me to leave a comment. My favorite part of HN was the potential discussions to be had and its great to see lobste

It was a fantastic read. It's crazy how fast things got bad for you and up again. To go through that in 4 months must have been a emotional roller coaster. It's also great to hear how many people helped out when you told them abou
