Being able to code without looking up, is a precious feeling. I mostly code on pure backends without any UI at all, and I go weeks without searching anything. It just feels so good.

[@withmarko]

Exactly! So underrated, but it’s an amazing feeling 👍

Man, I've been looking at laptop videos lately and this got recommended. I was getting more and more confused, then the confusion peaked when you pulled out the laptop, and the screen showed a macOS-like UI. "What Linux DE is this?" It took me too long to figure out you weren't talking about Framework laptops. Great video still!

[@zeeeeeeeek]

Awesome information! I've also had this experience when I stumbled on solid JS. No rerendering and over-engineering needed but I still have the JSX and other dx like react so it was a smooth transition.

[@withmarko]

Yes, I really like solid too, it's got a lot of potential.

[@AndreiChenchik]

Nice one! Also SwiftUI has nice approach in recent Observation release: view will update only if it’s accessing changed part of the state object. So it’s even optimized for free for you.

Hey Marko i need some help, I’m a 15 year old looking to become a software engineer but I’ve been doubting if I should cause of the new AI’s fast development like Devin. So I don’t know if it’s still okay to get a career in the future or not 😢

[@withmarko]

Hey that's a great question! Here's how I look at it. People who are actually benefiting the most at the moment from AI are actually software engineers. All those myths that it's replacing devs is just marketing talk. One day yes it will replace engineers, but my take is that when that happens it will be so close to general intelligence, that at that point all bets are off. The whole economy will not make any sense at all. But who knows if / when that will happen. In the meantime it's very clear software engineers are actually profiting from AI.

[@conundrum2u]

Back in the day, we knew that RoR was like gilding a turd. If you'd worked with any kind of mature framework you knew how dogshit Ruby was. It has ALWAYS been slow compared to other more established languages and frameworks. Too many people are attached to Ruby because of nostalgia. They used it in college. Or it's all they knew. Update on event is fine for small projects, but if you've got something that's updating the data regularly, bursts of DOM updates like with event based data updates can lead to UI jank. By all means, use what you feel works best for you, but there's reasons why people ultimately settle on the same patterns over and over again. You can only skin a cat so many ways and some ways are just the most efficient.

"It accomplishes 80% of what other frameworks do with 20% of the code". Press X to doubt, as about 40% of all the frontend code ends up being the HTML layout, and I doubt a framework that doesn't use JSX can output the same HTML tags in fewer lines of code. But I know that React hooks are so needlessly verbose and tend to bloat the code a lot, which is why I am still using class components to this day.

[@withmarko]

Press X to doubt, JSX has way more characters than hyperscript for the same HTML

[@Leonhart_93]

@@withmarko I was not joking, I was being quite literal. JSX can express the name of a piece of HTML with just a string literal and < />. There is no logical way to get shorter than that. The functionality can be literally anything, I can do it even in plain JS, but the layout has to be its it's natural HTML form for it to not be a mess. And if I can't do JSX I will just put it in old fashion .html files. There is no way to do the complex UIs of today and being only 3 layers deep, and the last thing I want to do is do a chain of many nested function calls like I am writing Lisp or something...
