i'm working with react at my paid gig at the moment. i weep at the objects and the nonatuplicate copying of the same info in several different places, the utter disregard for any kind of simple, readable syntax, and waiting 10 minutes for the IDE to finally index all the symbols in the source code.

if this was Go there would be no duplication, the indexing would take 10 seconds and there would be no such thing as "something went wrong". and it wouldn't be stupid error codes like C, it would be informative strings. potentially they could even have source locations.

javascript ninjas have no idea how dangerous their language system is. but then, nobody seems to care, and tehy build KYC systems with it and then wonder how it all ends up on the dark web a year later.
