The argument given back in the day was “energy independence”.

The options (simply put) were 1) give money to shady middle eastern dictators 2) drill in ANWAR or 3) innovate in domestic production (fracking).

Renewables were still not up to par and nuclear was not seriously considered because the carbon thing was still an afterthought.

I’m not condoning this shit, I’m just explaining the state of play as I remember it.

I used the Borland Turbo Vision based UIs a LOT back in the day. They were very good for their time, but they can’t hold a candle to modern user interfaces.

What are you guys storing in your phones? Mine hasn’t gotten anywhere close to full in years.

I’m starting to feel like I’m missing out on something important!

Tbf they are very quiet.

Yes!

But I’ve learned that there are A LOT of people that are incredibly pritective of react, so I generally don’t wade out into that particular debate.

I like Vue better than react tbh.

My latest project is alpine.js. It’s not bad, it stays out of the way.

That said, I don’t do front end often enough to keep up.
