  • Oh speaking of dependencies changes, you know one of the contributions to that team for me was to fight against them depending directly on third party libraries? I have to spend a lot of energy making people go through the pain of creating a middle layer between our code and frameworks code, because it’s not needed, because its repetition, because etc. until the dependencies change and everyone has to sweat blood, I don’t think that’s a good argument for languages allowing hacky code, I think it’s an argument to improve developers awareness, and a team culture that doesn’t foster hacks over bad design decisions



  • To be honest Typescript and Javascript for me are both very bad Hacks driven languages. I explain myself: I’ve worked on a project for a client, with other devs who were experienced js/ts devs. Before to get on, I’ve read a book about them, went through the docs. But in the end, I would push PRs, and there was some hacky way to do stuff, now some stuff is just bad developers, choosing the hacky “obscure” undocumented way to do something, but other solutions were clear enough that deserved to be documented. Overall I am better off without using those
