Any #OpenSource projects need some frontend #html #js #css support?
I know a junior dev who wants to build up some experience.

This is a good reminder that most software is IO-bound and that means changing the programming language will likely not be the solution to the problem #js

Lazywebsite says:

If you navigate away your changes will be lost, really lose changes?
[Cancel][Ok]

... So you wrote the #js to detect that I'm losing changes... And my draft was important enough to throw an 80s-style confirm modal... But you didn't think the draft was important enough to stash it some place like in a cookie, or local storage, or a post it to a server-side draft?

Just "really lose your changes?" #ux

I've been using TS for almost two years now. I hoped it would make my code more robust. I think it does. But the whole system seems so brittle. I just wasted half an hour trying to fix "JSX element implicitly has type 'any' because no interface 'JSX.IntrinsicElements' exists".

Then I decided to just restart VS Code and poof: all errors gone!

This was after restarting the TS server and the dev server. Only using recommended packages and extensions in an Astro project.

Any browser extension gurus able to help me figure this out?

I have an extension and I'm creating two context menu items via two separate calls to the 'chrome.contextMenus.create' method and by default it will stick those two items under a top level menu and I have not been able to find an easy way to say "don't do that" and keep both items as top level choices in the context menu.

I'm doing this in Firefox but using chrome to be cross-browser compatible.

I also have a silly web components question...

If I choose a helper library like #LitHtml and make some component. Say like a button. And I want to make it portable to different projects / contexts.

Is it possible with some tool to "compile" it back to a vanilla web-component again? Or would it only be "portable" to some other context if you also handed over the dependency on Lit?

Yes, #JavaScript is bad and all it can do is generate #bloatware and #annoyances like #ableist shite!

• Cuz everytime someone decided a site needs to mandate #JS they explicitly went out of their way to shove that bs in it!

#BanJavascript ffs!!!

Not liking this #maralago in South Ayrshire thing that #Trump's brought off. He is after all a visitor (also head of state of the most powerful nation, even if it is clearly in decline). Utter humiliation for #UvL, #KS, #JS. Janey #Godley's sign, years ago, at Turnberry said it all.

“Instead of a fast, stable, SEO-friendly experience, you get a heavy JavaScript machine trying to recreate the native behaviour we threw away”

#JS quiz time!

Without trying it out, what do you think the following will print?

async function foo () {
console.log(1);
let v = 2;
await v;
console.log(2);
}
function bar() {
console.log('bar');
}

foo();
bar();

So simple: disable Javascript (via developer console settings in your browser) to read full-length articles that are otherwise paywalled. Hmm, do they (Verge and others) really make that intentional or they just overlook it? #paywall #news #articles #browser #JS #javascript #webdev

Oh, great, the EPA's grand masterplan to save the environment: cut out the pesky "science" part entirely! Because who needs expert research when you can just guess? Now, back to enabling #JS like it's 1995.

@da_667 it sounds pretty typical but probably also an opportunity #js engines #immutable binaries
