How the US manages to pretend to be a modern country without the bare basics of public administration like a civil registry is beyond me.

If “registering to vote” was a thing anywhere else we’d all be decrying it as a major democratic deficit, if not outright disenfranchisement.

Tbf they are very quiet.

Yes, they write satire. They can't be responsible for Poe's Law.

If you do something once, and the impact of the thing you did is not what you expected or could have foreseen, that’s one thing.

But I’ve learned that there are A LOT of people that are incredibly pritective of react, so I generally don’t wade out into that particular debate.

I like Vue better than react tbh.

My latest project is alpine.js. It’s not bad, it stays out of the way.

That said, I don’t do front end often enough to keep up.

All the cool kids right now are mostly on JavaScript/type script. It’s probably a good place to get started since you’ll need it on the front end.

I’m guessing most work on the U.S. side is react. You can probably pick up a bit of node/react native as you go for the backend and for native dev.

Java is the new COBOL. Big corps luuuuuuuuurve it. It’s not what I would expect a single dev to use. C# is similar but smaller, if you forget unity game dev. And you should forget unity game dev.

Rust is basically a less bad C. If you do things you used to do in C, learn rust. If not, don’t.

Python is also still a thing. If you like it you can probably use it for most things, but if not there are other options.

But I’m a weakling with a shiny toy.

A result? From string theory?

Inconceivable!

The record won’t last long.
