Meanwhile PHP quietly runs 80% of the internet by being used for WordPress.

considering how huge FB still is.

FB is only huge because they've expanded all over the globe, even providing internet to developing nations to facilitate new user acquisition. In reality they've been bleeding the original Western users that signed up between '04-'10, and growth among new generations flatland a long time ago. There's a reason Meta aggressively expanded to other ventures (or attempt to create platforms) like Instagram, Threads, what's app, VR and metaverse. Metas only chance at sustainable growth and capturing young people is to build or buy platforms young people will use, because it ain't Facebook.

Remember when people were calling this dummy the "real life Tony Stark"? Lol.

Seems it got much worse.

Seems like it's going great for the developer.

We can only assume this was all a negotiation tactic, where they start with an unreasonable position, and force devs to accept an imbalanced (but manageable) fee structure they would have rejected.

I say that, but I also assumed that is what Reddit was doing, but they went full steam towards stupid town, so ymmv.

Web & mobile development took a wrong tern 10 million miles back, and no one wants to turn the car around and admit it.

Yes, and the people directly contributing to the project have legitimate gripes. Although, the parable of dhh is if you get on an asshole scorpions back, don't be surprised if you get stung. Dudes been an unreasonable prick for nearly 20 years now.

My comments directed at the manufactured outrage from the tooling zealots incapable of having a mature conversation. Or even accept a difference of opinion. The number of comments that start with, "never heard of Turbo, but let me weigh in on why you're an idiot for not liking Typescript. " is very telling...

I continue to be baffled and amused by the complete meltdown of the typescript community over the actions of a single man on a single package. The only people who have legitimate gripes are those that had been actively contributing and whose work was erased. The rest of you are acting absurdly childish. The anger and vitriol being thrown at anyone who disagrees on how to write javascript would make me embarrassed if I was associated or involved in the ts community.

There is no way in hell he would ever post to 4chan.

He made a long weepy post on his site how he would never use Reddit of all places, and how embarrassed he would be if "real world people" ever thought he was on it. He is exactly as insufferable and self righteous as you can imagine.

SPAs are mostly garbage, and the internet has been irreparably damaged by lazy devs chasing trends just to building simple sites with overly complicated fe frameworks.

90% of the internet actually should just be rendered server side with a bit of js for interactivity. JQuery was fine at the time, Javascript is better now and Alpinejs is actually awesome. Nowadays, REST w/HTMX and HATEOAS is the most productive, painless and enjoyable web development can get. Minimal dependencies, tiny file sizes, fast and simple.

Unless your web site needs to work offline (it probably doesn't), or it has to manage client state for dozen/hundreds of data points (e.g. Google Maps), you don't need a SPA. If your site only needs to track minimal state, just use a good SSR web framework (Rails, asp.net, Django, whatever).

Also some fun takeaways: it also makes external calls to azure to load configuration and stays silent after updating for 2 weeks before showing warnings.

Moq is unusable. Needs to be forked or repoaced. Time to switch to NSubstitute.
