This is the dumbest take.

They never had a “biblical right” because there is no such thing.

Out of curiosity, do you consider the sentence below to be a direct incitement to actionable violence?

“It would be patriotic if someone were to stop Person X from enacting their agenda, even if they used force.”

If yes, what exactly qualifies it as a “direct incitement”?

Additionally, would you say it makes a difference whether the sentence above is said by Joe Shmoe vs televised and said by a powerful person with many followers hanging at their every word?

… Until your doctor starts pushing it because he saw it on Joe Rogan.

Kinda disappointing. I was hoping for a single-player-focused title.

Are you complaining that older versions of Java don’t have the features of newer versions of Java…?

For me, as primarily a backend dev, the argument was that it’s a framework, unlike React, so you get an everything-in-one solution which is quite easy to setup and use.

Given that Google still hasn’t killed this one yet, it’s also a mature platform with plenty of articles online on how to use it.

IIRC the license was also better than React’s, at least last time I checked.

Not sure on what the landscape looks like today, but when I was making the choice, the internet didn’t seem to consider other solutions to be competitive with either React or Angular.

A part of it is horrible practices and a work culture which incentivizes them.

Who can be happy when the code doesn’t work half the time, deployments are manual and happen after work hours, and devs are forced to be “on-call”?

Introduce Test-Driven Development, Domain-Driven Design, Continuous Deployment with Feature Flags, Mutation Testing and actual agile practices (as described in the Agile Manifesto, not the pathetic attempt to rebrand waterfall we have in most companies) to the project and see how happiness rises, along with the project’s reliability and maintainability.

Oh, and throw in a 4 day work week, because no one can be mentally productive for that long.

IMO the biggest problem in the industry is that most developers have never seen a project actually following best practices and middle management is invested in making sure it never happens.
