Never underestimate the power of "this" in JavaScript

Under? Yeah var self = this;

( ) -> { }

You mean "that" ?

@jarnix No. I meant "this". Many devs use statement "var that = this;" and that's why variable "that" occurs at multiple places but the actual variable is still "this".

Tbh: I never used 'this' before, gotta look into it some time probably...

@ILoveJavaScript you know that's just because you have no certainty what “this“ actually is. Even the angular guys did this

@Data-Bound : I know what "this" means. I have created some big JavaScript applications. And u can't create one without knowing the meaning or context of "this". I added that rant for beginners as part of week 26 as it's something when not used correctly can cost hours of debugging.

One of the things I love about Python is that the same thing in Python sounds very motivational:

Never underestimate the power of self!
