Pennywise Memes

The JavaScript ecosystem is basically Pennywise from IT luring developers into the sewer with promises of "new frameworks." And what do we do? We dive right in, head first, no questions asked. Next thing you know, you're neck-deep in npm dependencies wondering why you didn't just stick with jQuery. The framework churn is so real that by the time you master one, three more have popped up claiming to be "revolutionary." It's the developer equivalent of Stockholm syndrome – we keep going back for more punishment.
