js validation

God save us all from JS 😑

The JS Drinking Game:

1. Think of a noun.
2. Google "<noun>.js"
3. If a libary with that name exists, drink!

Typical paranoia's when developing a website
- what if the user has JS turned off ?
- what if he is using the site without a monitor ?
- what if the user's electricity is off ?
- what if there's no user ?

Js frontend
Js backend
Js mobile apps
Js desktop apps
What's next? Js kernel?

['🥚','🐔'].sort();

Now I know the truth ...according to JS.

Damn you JS!

The Only py and js dev meme

When you spend too much time doing JS...

I went to shop to take a break from JavaScript project...

JS is everywhere

No I will not disable my AdBlocker to view your content.

I'll just disable JS in browser.
*Troll face*

JS is love indeed

Thank you JS for challenging our lives

I don't get JS sometimes...-

JS Frameworks

My biggest annoyance?

The amount of hate against JS, I personnaly love JS!

When you try to find something in a minified js file...

Looking squarely at you js, python Devs

I'm thinking about making a new JS framework. Anyone knows a good JS framework for that?

First day of college

- Enters the class

- Class starts

- Teacher starts teaching JS with notepad as editor on windows xp

- Leaves

JS memes are the best

I see a lot of hate for JS in here. I personally love that mother fucker.

Improving an old JS code, replaced all 'var's with 'let's. Previous guy wrote a comment above his variables, which is now saying:
"letiabes"

Just noticed this while talking to someone not familiar with js and node development.

Last week, i was giving my interview for a web development internship!
They asked me
what is the difference between :-
{} +[]
and
[]+{}
:(

Weird parts of JS strikes back :(

Rants about how big jQuery is (83 KB), misses project deadline trying to write efficient JS to "optimize" load time, eventually ends up saving 2 KBs.

Typical JS
null > 0 //false
null == 0 //false
null >= 0 //true

Wtf?

my relationship to JS like

Keeping up with new JS frameworks is like keeping up with celebrity gossip. It really isn't useful on it's own but you can talk to other people about it and be perceived as woke.

Basically,
1+infinity = 1
But
infinity + 1 = NaN
My entire maths fundamental shuttered by the beautiful JS language....

Refactoring old Js code with Ramda.

Dear lord spaghettimonster,
pls not another SomethingJS.io for the world!

There should be a limit on how many JS frameworks are allowed to exist at any time!

My employer gives me a mission to complete in our project using plain js.
*Uses 30 hours of working time completing the mission using custom js elements*
*Presents the results proudly to the employer*
*Realizes Microsoft edge doesn't support custom elements*

JS developer life

React-Redux's connect() function inspired me to create the coolest way to add numbers in JS:

<script>
function add(num) {
return function(otherNum) {
return num + otherNum
};
};

console.log( add(2)(3) ); // Outputs 5
</script>

I didn't know you could do that. Just found it out!

HTML is 26 years old.

CSS is 22.

JS is 23.

FUCK FUCK FUCK

Started working on devRantron after a month holiday.

Major version upgrade to 4 different packages. All the upgrades are breaking the current configurations.

I just fucking wish JS community would understand the importance of backward compatibility.

Why you do this JS ?

Just so you know.
In node js.
You can use emojis as methods names. For real.

FUTURE 😄

Trying to fix js with frameworks is like trying to cure cancer with painmeds.

I'm so weary of JS right now but every time i want to code something in another language i just think:
"Why don't i just do this in JS. Would be much easier."

Please help me.

So, I was going to complain about JS being finicky and not making a damned bit of sense, but it turns out that it wasn't JS's fault. Not entirely, anyway. It was the halfassed JS minifier middleware (written by the legendary dev himself) that was breaking the JS while writing it to the page.

The original problem:
My code worked. I removed some comments. Big ol' block of //'s. And suddenly $() isn't a function. But if I call $(); at the top, it all works!

It turns out the "minifier" caused JS to think my code was chaining off the previous JS line in the rendering pipeline instead of being a separate statement. so all it really needed was a `;` at the start. What threw me, though, was the last line of the previous blob of (non-minified) JS was a comment, so it should be a separate statement, right?

But as it turns out...

```
console
// JS really is finicky.
.log('Sigh.');
```

Found this on a client's js code

// They forced me to write this code.
// Prepare yourself.

I found out later that month what that dev truly means

When your colleague writes code like minified JS. 😱

We all know someone who's like this

writes
console.log("hello world");
calls himself a js developer.

Once I was frustrated by a Javascript bug

So I Googled "Retarded JS'"

And holy fuckkk

I found a npm module 😁

Then I Googled "Asshole JS"

Holy mother of all fuckkks

I FOUND THE COOLEST JS LIBRARY EVER 😁😂

It doesn't matter how much you try, JS is always gonna taste like pasta.

Understanding JS Promises be like

JS. IS. A. PROGRAMMING. LANGUAGE.

this will cause so much pain for devs around the world. JS in Excel

Every JS developer be like-

New JS framework

(IT AIN'T EVEN 4 WORDS)

Today I Learned that "null" it's an object in JS.

AAAAARGH!

Refactoring a 1000 line God awful js function. Why do people do this?

Any reason to use js framework than vanilla one? Is it the same reason as bootstrap and css?

Member when there weren't so many JS frameworks?

When you don't know what's happening in your js so you put console.log at every third line and in every function...

I spent an entire week debugging my JS Gameboy emulator an year ago.
(The "C" register was read-only for some reason)
Turns out I typed "с" (cyrillic) instead of "c".

So, I spent some time learning c++ and now my brain is completely melted coming from js.

I'm in fucking love with JS!!

Debugging JS sometimes is like

I've had it with people not considering js devs as developers. fuck off

No matter what JS framework/library holds the #1 spot at any given time, jQuery will always have a special place in my heart.

Vue 1.0 got released in 2015. Now it's 2021 and Vue 1 apps can no longer run in Firefox due to compatibility issue.

THIS IS JS FRAMEWORK FOR YOU. The lifespan of an app written on a JS framework is 5 years. But people will not learn, they will keep cmxll,xdl,d;'mzaaaaaaaxsxzxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxa

js man!

The internet dev community is so funny
-Everyone loves js
-Everyone hates js
-Everyone loves react
-Everyone hates react
-Everyone hates angular

With all these JS frameworks around, I'm surprised that there isn't a .js TLD yet.

I am worried of a future in which JS has taken over everything, fortunately wasm is here to help :D

Js be like... 😅

Senior JS Dev where I'm contracting can't understand why null != "null"

Lie in the interview saying he was a frontend web developer and try to hide the fact that they didn't know JS. Wtf.

Js on the frontend is bad enough, who the fuck came up with the idea to use it on the backend?

How many JS frameworks does it take to change a lightbulb?

Thank God for JS

What is your favorite editor for HTML, CSS, JS, PHP?

js js everywhere. :p

JS is too funny 😂

So I always start learning JS frameworks and end up getting confused by their syntax among other things. Do you guys know of any good websites to learn vanilla JS? My problem is that I probably don't know enough of vanilla and end up getting flustered.

Angular is still a pile of steaming donkey shit in 2023 and whoever thinks the opposite is either a damn js hipster (you know, those types that put js in everything they do and that run like a fly on a lot of turds form one js framework to the next saying "hey you tried this cool framework, this will solve everything" everytime), or you don't understand anything about software developement.

I am a 14 year developer so don't even try to tell me you don't understand this so you complain.
I build every fucking thing imaginable. from firmware interfaces for high level languaces from C++, to RFID low level reading code, to full blown business level web apps (yes, unluckily even with js, and yes, even with Angular up to Angular15, Vue, React etc etc), barcode scanning and windows ce embedded systems, every flavour of sql and documental db, vectorial db code, tech assistance and help desk on every OS, every kind of .NET/C# flavour (Xamarin, CE, WPF, Net framework, net core, .NET 5-8 etc etc) and many more

Everytime, since I've put my hands on angularJs, up from angular 2, angular 8, and now angular 15 (the only 3 version I've touched) I'm always baffled on how bad and stupid that dumpster fire shit excuse of a framework is.

They added observables everywhere to look cool and it's not necessary.
They care about making it look "hey we use observables, we are coo, up to date and reactive!!11!!1!" and they can't even fix their shit with the change detection mechanism, a notorious shitty patchwork of bugs since earlier angular version.

They literally built a whole ecosystem of shitty hacks around it to make it work and it's 100x times complex than anything else comparable around. except maybe for vanilla js (fucking js).

I don't event want todig in in the shit pool that is their whole ecosystem of tooling (webpack, npm, ng-something, angular.json, package.json), they are just too ridiculous to even be mentioned.

Countless time I dwelled the humongous mazes of those unstable, unrealiable shitty files/tools that give more troubles than those that solve.

I am here again, building the nth business critical web portal in angular 16 (latest sack of purtrid shit they put out) and like Pink Floyd says "What we found, same old fears".
Nothing changed, it's the same unintelligible product of the mind of a total dumbass.

Fuck off js, I will not find peace until Brendan Eich dies of some agonizing illness or by my hands

I don't write many rants but this, I've been keeping it inside my chest for too long.

I fucking hate js and I want to open the head of js creator like the doom marine on berserk

Every time I rant about JS, I get accused of:
- being a noobie
- not "REALLY" understand JS
- being an incel
- being dumb or low IQ

I'm starting to see a pattern of behavior, similar to the far right or far left political people on Twitter, and highly religious people.
I know, correlation != causation but it makes me think that maybe emotional attachment to ideas is bad for the brain

Dear everyone who doesn't write JS and has some hand-wringing concern about its lack of static typing, lack of threading, or its suitability for large back-end services:

It's fine, we've got this. You go back to discussing contravariance or whatever it is you do.

Signed,

i began to love JS, then i ask her a request to go out but all she gave me was promises

Fuck you {{insert js frameworks}}

I've been learning ajax now and this shit happend

Tried to use vanilla JS, 2 hours into it and after googling stuff : Fuck it, I'll use JQUERY

JS vs ES

var a = {
value: -1,
toString: function() {
return ++this.value;
}
}

if(a & !a) {
console.log("F**k you JS!");
}

if(a == 2 && a == 3) {
console.log("F**k you again JS!");
}

Mystery solved!
thanks, JS!

Really???
My whole finished Java project with database & gui - 277 files in source
Simple JS project nodejs & react - 15k files???
What the fuck?
I tried to like JS, but maybe later... Someday...

Not using vanilla js for simple function

What do you do when you loose your Frontend Dev Job?
a) Get a new Job.
b) Invent a JS Framework

Is React really that good? Some say if you don't know React you are doing JS wrong. But everyone says that for everything.

That awkward moment when you convert JS functionality into pure HTML CSS just to find out it's not working on IE.

JS shortcut

I started working at a software company two weeks ago. Today I learned that their web app only runs so smoothly because of a single JS function called specialSnowflakeHandler()

It is ridiculous how many javascript frameworks out there. Just combine any nounce + JS, I guarantee you, there is Github repo existed already!

I was making changes in JS and it did not get reflected into the browser, spent 3 hours on it. Later realised I was making changes in the wrong JS file. Have never felt this dumb in my life.

Learning jquery after four straight years of vanilla js makes me feel really dirty.

hey guys,

I've been working with js for like 5 years now, and I figured I could help some people out, if needed.

I wouldn't consider myself a js lord, but I have some decent experience, and even if I don't know something I'll be honest about it and at the very least I'm pretty sure I'll point you in the right direction.

I'm fond of vue, lodash, es6, node, eslint bla bla. I also know rails.

In any case, my objective with this is to learn myself.

So feel free to tag me if you have any type of question about anything js.

Cheers.

Recently started using js without semicolons...

Personal opinion but I think semicolons do make the code look ugly

I want to explain to people like ostream (aka aviophille) why JS is a crap language. Because they apparently don't know (lol).

First I want to say that JS is fine for small things like gluing some parts togeter. Like, you know, the exact thing it was intended for when it was invented: scripting.

So why is it bad as a programming language for whole apps or projects?

No type checks (dynamic typing). This is typical for scripting languages and not neccesarily bad for such a language but it's certainly bad for a programming language.

"truthy" everything. It's bad for readability and it's dangerous because you can accidentaly make unwanted behavior.

The existence of == and ===. The rule for many real life JS projects is to always use === to be more safe.
In general: The correct thing should be the default thing. JS violates that.

Automatic semicolon insertion can cause funny surprises.
If semicolons aren't truly optional, then they should not be allowed to be omitted.

No enums. Do I need to say more?

No generics (of course, lol).

Fucked up implicit type conversions that violate the principle of least surprise (you know those from all the memes).

No integer data types (only floating point). BigInt obviously doesn't count.

No value types and no real concept for immutability. "Const" doesn't count because it only makes the reference immutale (see lack of value types). "Freeze" doesn't count since it's a runtime enforcement and therefore pretty useless.

No algebraic types. That one can be forgiven though, because it's only common in the most modern languages.

The need for null AND undefined.

No concept of non-nullability (values that can not be null).

JS embraces the "fail silently" approach, which means that many bugs remain unnoticed and will be a PITA to find and debug.

Some of the problems can and have been adressed with TypeScript, but most of them are unfixable because it would break backward compatibility.
So JS is truly rotten at the core and can not be fixed in principle.

That doesn't mean that I also hate JS devs. I pity your poor souls for having to deal with this abomination of a language.

It's likely that I fogot to mention many other problems with JS, so feel free to extend the list in the comments :)

Marry Christmas!

Hard to believe some "experimented" js developers does not know this difference

a man once cat a js file and cried

If you are writing a new javascript framework, remember. No NEW JS Framework 2018. Thank You.

Before internship, js code with semicolons looked stupid to me. Then jshint happened and here I am at 3AM in the morning, adding semicolons to a forgotten but not abandoned design project of mine!

Actual production js code from a large insurance company.

Coding and debugging in js

JS be like:

0 == "0" | true
0 == [] |true

ok... so "0" equals []?

"0" == [] | FALSE

I hate it when I ask about a way to solve a very specific problem in js, and people be like:

"You should use this x library, it has the y utility that will solve your problem right away"

So, does anyone else dream about programming? I had this awful nightmare last night about JS, I think I might been working to much..

Every time I try to refactor old js code!

Nuke.js

A JS framework to nuke all the other js frameworks. Sadly, it's taken.

Hey DR! I am a pretty inexperienced programmer who's learning about JS. When I was writing vanilla JS to do some simple DOM manipulation, JS seems like a pretty familiar language. However, when I start to learn about different frameworks (React, Express), the way that they code stuff (IDK how to pinpoint specific examples, it's just an overall impression) becomes very different from my experience with other programming language. I am wondering if anyone have any suggestions, have felt the same way, or know how to overcome this phase.

ps This is a general question. Please don't be pissed for lack of technical detail....

Its happened...I'm done... I fucking hate JS

I love js. It makes me feel free🙌

Am I the only one who is sick of the Javascript, Javascript frameworks and anything ending with .js

Node, npm, node-sass - no, the whole JS universe, you fucking piece of shit!

Fuck you royally!

While taking the basic JS interview:

Me: what are the different data types in JavaScript

Candidate: We have a 'var' keyword

JS at its finest

while registering domain @ GoDaddy

JS is like Kim Kardashian, beautiful on the outside and so fucked up on the inside!

Did the author of core-js, get a good job yet?

Heard a story about an interview taken by one of my teammates..

The guy had approx. 9 years of experience of full stack development having current exp in JS based work.

He was stubborn on the condition that he'll work only on JS for the rest of his career and nothing else.

I can't understand people having a raging boner on one language...

P. S : I am a JS developer too!

For lovers of JS

I sometimes type === in Java.. Too much JS on my mind.

Fuck JS...

Can somebody explain me?

"In matters of style swim with the current. In matters of principle, stand like a rock."

In matters of js frameworks, just give up.

Ah... JS you beautiful thing

What's with kids and with js framework(s) ? Like almost every jr student at University is wanking their dicks at it...

Thanks for that p5.js. Very informative.

Well... Justy trying to migrate from Android to JavaScript development... Everything seems to be ugly in this world of functions... I really can't understand why JS is so popular, It is totally incapable language.

If you're a javascript dev and you haven't read "You don't know JS", you should give it a try. Officially posted as a free git book.

Today I discovered that Haskell can be compiled to js. This is both wonderful and disturbing: having the strengths of Haskell feels right and encouraging, but having to transpile it to js feels unnaturally dirty.

Still, I'm not sure I can apply this at my job in any future, but I might have just the case in the brewing.

Spent 5 hours adding a library to js AND IT STILL DOESN'T WORK

help/kill me pls

Fun game: Type "[any word] js" into google. 90% of the time, its a project that exists.

Poll: Angular vs. Ember vs. Backbone vs. your preferred front-end JS library?

DOM manipulation using vanilla JS is now "Low-level web programming"? 💀

"An array of arrays? What the hell?" - the client's dev team, failing to understand the parameters of the JS lib they chose to implement.

if only there was a native structure that supports find and map methods in js...

I have reinstalled node js 3 times to run JS scripts and "npm run dev" is not starting up the server. This is quite frustrating.

Im a complete back end guy, decided to learn a js framework......

Holy mother Jesus, so many hours before I realised this. Really js!? Really...

When you immediately know a Pythonista/Gopher wrote the JS code you're reading :^)

Inspired by jestdotty's comment:

> *makes spooky JavaScript noises*

What would be a noise or sound that most accurately represents JS?

I‘ll start with two suggestions and we can vote for the most fitting one.

Today I discovered first thing I personally prefer in JS over PHP.

let's say you have:
//pseudocode
if(sth){
let ret = 1;
} else {
let ret = 2;
}
if(sth_else){
return ret.toPrecision(2);
}
return ret.toPrecision(8);

In PHP this will work. JS will throw up becouse it managed to separate scopes. Its actually what I would like to be the case with PHP.

Erlang... variables you can't vary? WTF!

Writing JS two weeks later...
const a =1
const b = a + 1
Why would I ever assign over a? Pfft.
const c = b + 1
...

I feel like I know what I shouldn't know. I know a little about using jQ and JS (mainly little plugins) but I can't code js from scratch.

I use vanilla html and css and my environment is notepad++.

I feel like I should know SASS, Pug and use Webstorms or some other professional IDE. And learn js.

Which preprocessors do you prefer? Which IDEs and which point to start learning js from scratch?

Project set up with JS build tools takes more time than fucking project development itself

Wtf JS.
It take two days that root of the problem is two char - "()".
Someone write isManageExp instead isManageExp()

maybe im too dumb about this fuckin js thing.

I go around all file to make sure the ouput is correct.
Damn js, damn damn

JS Frameworks nowadays.

Just had an argument (with myself ;)) whether to write a completely server rendered site or a js app.

The only stas I have manged to find is from 2010 saying potentially 2% of users could have js disabled.

Why cannkt I find newer stats :/

when the pm chooses a js library but says can you just change this... either accept the library as you chose it or give a proper spec to write it from scratch

Js made me crazy!

- And also today I completed my to-do list
- Did you carry all the tasks out?
- No, just a new JS framework

Just purchased a new domain and decided to once again design my website personally (Fuck wordpress man) but...

I absolutely hate working with HTML and JS at the same time (I actually love JS on its own), its like bloody Stockholm syndrome!

HTML may beat me senseless.. But i love it too much to stop!

~ I knew a little bit of Django ~
~ Now I know a little bit more ~
~ I used to like Python ~
~ Not so anymore ~

~ Why though ~
~ I don’t know ~

I use JS professionally and I have majorly coded in JS in personal projects but I always had this liking towards Python. Now, that feeling is gone. Python doesn’t seem that attractive. JS seems better.

One of the reasons, I feel, is the syntax. JS can fuck-up in places but that C-style syntax is love.

Another reason could be that I still don’t know that much Python or Django to make an opinion? Maybe. Probably.

What do you do when you have to deal with ancien minified js and no dev version left ? seriously , its a legit question ..

Hi fellow devs, I have a question for you.
Do you think asking questions like (related to JS):
- What is the type of null?
- What is the result of 0,1 + 0,2 (0,30004)
- and other JS specifics

in a job Interview for a Junior position is the right thing to sort out applicants?
I have several years of programming experience, just not in JS, and got rejected because I couldn’t answer these questions. Feels kinda weird😅 What’s your opinion?

Managing countless dependencies makes me wonder if we can escape the madness and return to the simplicity of vanilla JS. Must be better than being doomed wandering the labyrinth, right? 🤔🔄🕸️

'You don't know JS' is the best text I have read on the language. Such deep insight!
