Dive Deep into Creativity: Your Ultimate Tumblr Experience Awaits
React makes life almost too easy. I worry that I’m missing something.
What’s the end game here?
and an unholy amount of linear algebra
It’s interesting how as I’ve progressed as a programmer the things I turn to for therapy have also progressed.
At first it was Scratch: after a span of getting frustrated by Python I would play with Scratch to at least make things that did what I wanted them to.
A little while later I wrote HTML and CSS to feel good about myself, because even when the default padding for <body> screws up your positioning there’s at least SOMETHING on the screen instead of an aggressive error message.
Now, it’s python. When Scheme or Haskell or C or Java or C# (less so C# - it’s actually pretty nice) or even Javascript are bothering me I can always turn to Python to feel better.
I wonder what it’ll be next? Maybe one day I’ll see C++ as my relief. Probably not. But maybe. Perhaps the final evolution of a programmer is when you can feel completely peaceful while writing Posix level C. Perhaps even assembly. Probably not. But perhaps.
In case anyone is curious I still haven’t organized that first react project. Ironically, of everything I’ve ever made it is currently the most popular, and it only took 4 hours to make. Heavy sigh.
Guess who jumped into his first React project without any planning and now continues to add features thereby creating a monstrosity of spaghetti code. THIS guy!
Went to React’s website to learn the Tic Tac Toe tutorial (it’s about time I got around to it) and was pleasantly surprised to see this. Way to go, React.
