How is it more secure when you're still accessing an API?

It only accesses the API with a read-only token during the build process.

it's not really a dynamic site in the first place and can also be done with HTML or markdown in the same repo

This is definitely true and was an option we considered, however colocating hundreds+ posts with code made the repo unnecessarily heavy and slowed our build time drastically. Our content creators also didn't want to use git to edit their content (they would have to learn git / or use the web UI which is a suboptimal editing experience), nor did I want content creators in our repos.

The fine control seems the be the only real advantage, at the cost of more moving pieces.

Lots of other advantages that I won't outline here, but our data is completely decoupled from our frontend now, so we can do cool stuff like crossposting to different properties via webhook, data cleanup via API (I ran all the blog posts from WP through some remark tools so we have a more standard look and feel), etc... Might not be the right setup for you, but it works really well for us!

Always thought Lyft should have done this but by using a color changing LED version of the lighted mustache that some drivers have.

This article doesn't seem to mention the line or route they took, unless I just missed it... My company sent around an email that stated:

BART announced that a passenger who traveled between the Lafayette Station and Montgomery Street Station during the morning and evening commutes from 6 am to 8 am and 7 pm to 9 pm on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, February 4th - 6th, was diagnosed with the measles.

I wouldn't say that's a completely different experience. It's the same experience minus having to hit save (which I'd imagine is fairly automatic/in the subconcious for most devs). I'll have to try it out and see for myself though I suppose.

What would a better alternative be for `var self = this` ? I use it all the time, never thought of it as an anti-pattern as long as it's only declared where you actually need it.

I was wondering that too... With some sort of insight into the correct response, one might be able to learn rather than just be tested. A lot of fun regardless.
