Please Don't Make Me Go Back There

Content 3rd - Follow Software Engineer 3d 4 In 2021 a research paper was published showing most efficient programming languages. Paper is here, but sadly behind the paywall. Gotta love "free academic pursuit" where they take in public money and then hide the results. https:Inkd.ingFTCtMzU Anyway: It shows that if people care about energy footprint of their systems, they need to ditch things like ruby, python and perl. Typescript also is super inefficient too.

JavaScript's type conversion is like that friend who's confident but wrong about everything. Empty string? That's clearly 0! "07foo"? Obviously 7! And my personal favorite: a tiny decimal like 0.0000005 somehow becomes 5, because who needs those pesky zeros anyway? The best part is how parseInt() and Number() can't even agree with each other. One sees scientific notation, the other just sees numbers to ignore. It's like watching two drunk mathematicians argue about how to split the bill. This is why JavaScript developers drink.

When your authentication system is so secure, it needs to authenticate itself before authenticating users. That method signature is the programming equivalent of saying "I'm going to need to see some ID for your ID." The poor guy trapped in authentication purgatory is every developer who's had to implement OAuth2 with refresh tokens while their PM keeps asking "why can't users just login with a password?"

OH. MY. GOD. The absolute TRAUMA of modern frontend development captured in one image! 😱 On the left, we have the React ecosystem pointing a BAZILLION packages at us like we're being held hostage in dependency hell. React-router-dom, TypeScript, Axios, Tailwind, and twenty other packages just SCREAMING at you to install them before your project can even render "Hello World." It's like being at a buffet where you MUST eat everything or the chef gets offended! And then there's Angular on the right - just standing there... menacingly... with its all-in-one framework. One download and you're set, but at what cost to your SOUL?! This is why frontend developers have eye bags deeper than the node_modules folder. Our package.json files have more dependencies than I have emotional issues - and that's saying something! 💀
