  1. A sad and troubling impression from #jsnation and #reactsummit was that a huge fraction of the frontend community is happy to drink at the nazi bar. They don't even seem to feel embarrassed about posting on xitter. 🤦🤦🤦

  2. Also yes I'm very confused by the power of 2 in the logo too.

    React is 10 years old and they made a big deal out of that at #ReactSummit, but the logo implies it's 10^2 or 100 - but then there's a square root over 'anniversary' so maybe that's sqrt(100^2) so we're back to 10 again... I dunnooooo

    Happy if anyone from #GitNation could clear it up, hahah

  3. So in case you think #Mastodon will replace #Twitter in the (commercial) tech bubble: From thousands of participants, there where 11 different people tooting from the world's biggest JS and React conference. Eleven. #ReactSummit #JSNation

  4. One big takeaway from #ReactSummit for me, is that the big players are hyper aware of the loading time/JS bundle size problem, and they are all keen to fix it.

    Whether they couch that in terms of speed and fastness or whatever - the result is a return to SSR for portions of a site or a more complete static site made at build time, or only bringing in the JS just as it's needed instead of all at once on load.

    A good thing. React is not going away any time soon, so I'm glad it's still evolving.

  5. A very controversial sounding talk (given we're at #ReactSummit) "Should you use React in 2023?" is turning out not to be.

    Their reasons for React:
    - Familiarity
    - Resources
    - Ecosystem
    - Performance (!) - glossing over its issues, by talking about the new SSR features.

    Hm.

    They have ended it with caveats - and experiences they've had where other frameworks were better.

    It's a mixture of sunk cost fallacy, network effect, and inertia IMO. But also, a choice has to be made at some point 🤷

  6. Conference challenge 2023: drink whenever someone mentions AI.

  7. I had a blast talking in front of so many awesome people about JavaScript iteration protocols at #JSNation! If you are looking for the slides they are here loige.link/iter-nation

    Today I'll be hanging around at #ReactSummit, so if you are there too, let's chat 😊

  8. I'm going to #ReactSummit and #JSNation in just over a week - who will I see there ?!
