Thankfully, this opinion is measurably false just by reviewing source code of any website. What you're referring to, primarily, are categories of elements like form elements like <datalist> and that's fair.
This is why the web community is asked to support improving the platform through submissions to Interop, such as this one for <datalist>
In the above article, Harry gives a more nuanced and specific method using data attributes to target specific anchors in the document, one reason being you don't need to prerender login or logout pages.
Since last year, I've finally finished two WordPress plugins I wasn't able to completely figure out, I've built new tiny apps that I previously would be stuck on, I am improving existing projects that I have up to Github now, and more. I think my abilities are enhanced by probably 25-50%.
Middle management for software engineering has gone through a paradigm shift. The trend for businesses is flatter structures, manager roles with more responsibilities and this reality largely includes being as deep in the code as direct reports.
Since 2023, most roles I reviewed or interviewed for were player/coach roles, often close to 50/50 split. In my last EM role, I was hired for exactly this.
I found very few EM roles that are primarily managing with only "being in the code"; I can count on my hands out of hundreds of Engineering Manager roles. Probably closer to 95% or more EM roles require hands-on technical work similar to Tech Lead roles.
I have noticed this as well, and if you're interviewing at a startup, it's almost guaranteed to be a highly technical position. Either a hybrid EM/Tech Lead role or a hybrid EM/architect role.
I watched that last year. It's very interesting research and seems effective not just for Alzheimers but for treatment of addiction as well. I'm seriously counting on this treatment for any family members who may end up being diagnosed with it later in life.
I would say an actively harmful TypeScript. Just a couple of days ago, I had bug in production because apparently the union of two types is not the intersection but the sum. It exploded because one type had a method that the other didn't. That's an absolutely horrible footgun
My journey into building computers and networking were partly driven by Anandtech. I bought and sold quite a few things on the forums, too. I always thought Anandtech was one of the higher quality tech publications. RIP to one of the best.
I'm glad to hear the forums are still going to be around. They certainly aren't as popular as they once were but I still consider myself a part of that community and enjoy conversing with the old timers once and awhile.
