An interesting article, but I would be concerned about readability for newcomers unfamiliar with Proxies.
To be honest, for the particular use cases mentioned here - why not use the object utilities in Lodash (which is well used, familiar to many, well documented, and battle hardened)?
we didn’t get around to implementing slices like array[1:3]
What's wrong with arr.slice(1,3)?
The only people that say that a CS education doesn't make you a better programmer are people without a CS education.
LOL @ title. Hyperbole much?
to do CSS, you now also need to know JS
Since when? You don't need to know JS to write CSS. You just don't. You make an architectural decision, based on what you want to create, to use css-in-js. But that's a decision that you make. You can 'do' CSS without anything but... CSS!
Any code that can be written will eventually be written in JavaScript.
Well that's a conscious decision the developer makes.
You don't need to use any of this.
If, as a beginner, you just want to write an HTML doc with some styles - that still works.
However, if as a beginner you jump into a Webpack / React / CSS-in-JS setup... well you're going to have a hard time.
Complaining that "that's the way things are going" seems to pass the buck. If you don't want to go that way, then don't!
Where did they say it makes Tesla the "most popular manufacturer in the world"? They didn't.
This was such a great watch, thanks for sharing!
You could also get it down to 0kb if WordPress just serves a blank response. Still uses a ton of resources on the server.
Best advice I have ever been given (in project management generally) is that it does sometimes go wrong, and when it goes wrong:
STOP. RESET. CONTINUE.
There are a LOT of assumptions here.
The rest of the org probably made a schedule they know you can't meet
Most people probably already know you'll be late, but aren't saying it out loud
There's a good chance <your boss> already knows as you suspect.
It's probably not new news to <the project owner> either.
Doesn't take much for one, if not all of those to be untrue. And by the time it unravels, it's too late.
Best thing OP can do is learn from the mistakes and speak up next time during planning phases, well before deadlines slip.
How do you know deadlines are going to slip when planning the project? Makes no sense.
