js validation

Wait what? A new JS library?

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 ?

Damn you JS!

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

When you spend too much time doing JS...

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

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

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

JS is everywhere

Thank you JS for challenging our lives

When you realize JS Arrays are actually lists instead of actual arrays

['🥚','🐔'].sort();

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

My biggest annoyance?

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

States of JS frameworks:

Everything is either in beta or deprecated

JS Frameworks

God save us all from JS 😑

!rant
wow! Just found an old js book from 1999! ...and there was a list w/ searchengines in the appendix.
..check this out!

Looking squarely at you js, python Devs

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

This Christmas, I hereby call for a total and complete shutdown of new css/js frameworks until we can figure out what the hell is going on.

js === god

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

JS memes are the best

!rant but recommendation:
"JavaScript: The Good Parts" Douglas Crockford.

I really like this book.
It's chewed away my misconceptions of JS. Especially coming from C++.

Small and precise.
JSON, JSLint and JSMin developer is the author.

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

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 :(

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

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.

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.

Why THE FUCK does the StackOverflow Community answer any JS related question with a solution containing jQuery - sometimes even without mentioning it?

Gosh - it's 2017 use Vanilla or at least a modern libary!

Refactoring old Js code with Ramda.

my relationship to JS like

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!

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

Wtf?

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*

I have found myself more confused than a chameleon in a bag of skittles because I can't figure out why my ajax(beginform()) won't fire off any of the JS functions I write.

Did my Googles and that didn't help. Verbally abused my monitor and rubber duck, didn't help. I've got a blood sacrifice to the Javascript gods scheduled for tomorrow. Maybe that'll work.

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!

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.

Now remember the order of operator precedence in JS with a "helpful abbr" :|

😁😂

I don't get JS sometimes...-

Why you do this JS ?

The truth about javascript is it is evil. I almost invariably disable it, even on sites I trust just on principal.

Reasoning is simple: If you were tired of your customers subverting your attempts to mine their data with javascript what's the answer? Deliver content with javascript because then they have to enable it.

So if you're developing with a JS framework that opens its own network connections and retrieves content, or to put it more simply if your website does not work without scripts running, figure something else the hell out. Because when you're all alone and I'm president, JavaScript content delivery will be made illegal. We're going to build a firewall.

And Web Assembly, don't get me started. Granted if somebody told me to fix the problems with the current web technology stack I can almost guarantee that I would have come up with Web Assembly, that doesn't make it ok just because it's the logical conclusion. You bet your sweet ass that the main reason companies are excited about it is because now the protocol for accessing the internet just isn't text readable any more. It's a great new tool for taking advantage of and abusing users because they'll be even more ignorant of your transgressions and even more helpless to stop them.

Look the web architecture we have now isn't great, but at least we can do things like use the dev tools to remove the adblocker-disable-begging, and disable javascript, and disable styling if it's broken. It's totally at our fingertips every time we open a web page, and if we're being taken advantage of, we can do something about it.

The way I look at things, the people that are coming up with these frameworks are like the people who invented the atomic bomb. It's technology that has the potential to do good, but has the greatest potential for evil. It makes me crazy that nobody has even considered this.

Client informs dev team that he is upgrading all his machines from IE8 to IE11.
~700 lines of hacky js and css previously commented as "//Workaround for IE" removed.
Pure satisfaction.

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.

Try this code in JS:
++[[]][+[]]+[+[]]
This is valid and returns the string "10" in JavaScript  :)))

Just imagine how good a .js tld would sell 😂

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 😁😂

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

We all know someone who's like this

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

My computing teacher says that html is his favourite programming language to teach.

He calls JavaScript Java

Needless to say he's not very good at teaching us html and js.

Understanding JS Promises be like

JS. IS. A. PROGRAMMING. LANGUAGE.

When your colleague writes code like minified JS. 😱

New JS framework

(IT AIN'T EVEN 4 WORDS)

I don't get why so many people use JS even for simple websites?
Since I've started to work as a web developer I learned so much about the power of pure HTML + CSS! Pseudo selectors are so freaking powerful when it comes to form validation and improving your UI/UX!
I love JS, but sometimes there is a simpler solution that is also better supported by (old) browsers..

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

I'm starting to hate js. Every library needs atleast 1000 other libs. I just blew the node_modules folder to 100mb with just one npm require

THX for 500++ !!! I'm so happy I found devRant by exident. I love reading rants and sometimes post my own stories.
PS: Now I can wear my JS Shirt and drink Red bull like in rl 😂 Thx again!

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

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

AAAAARGH!

Everyone shits on JS for 1+1

But no one talks about Python 2

3/2 = 1

Member when there weren't so many JS frameworks?

Debugging JS sometimes is like

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

My phone is correcting 'is' to 'js'... I think my university projects have bad influence on me..

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

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

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

using 21 js files (most are jquery based) and some 17 or so css files for a simple static one pager,
the only dynamic part is a filtered list of images,
big fuck you to whoever wrote this shit

My girlfriend dumped me coz I named a js prototype on her, she said I treated her as classless.

So it appears that by a good bit, JavaScript is either the Least Hated or the Most Loved language among ranters here. Interesting.

Come to think of it, most JS-related rants I've seen here were making fun of the number of Frameworks.

Dev blog writer: "I'm a polygot developer, check out my Github..."
Checks Github, only finds JS and 1 HTML repos...
Thanks for making me feel better about my employment chances mate!

Don't you just hate where we're going forward with these different JS frameworks and packages? WebPack, Electron and all the other ways we try to use JS for desktop development and a simple build of a tiny project taking 10 mins on an average spec core i7 machine, then overdosing on npm install since every frikn thing is now so modular you donwload a gazillion packages just to set up user authentication with a simple route manager in your app.

JavaScript is fine really for certain purposes. It's these other frameworks that try to modularize every single aspect of it that sucks. If there's anything called too modular, JS has reached it now. over-modularizing, and over-complicating everyday trivial tasks just to introduce yet another frikn package or framework.

Really missing the good'ol monolithic days of programming. I mean, modular is fine bro, but for godsakes draw the line somewhere!
#NoMoreOneLineModules

I can actually write my own, simple code, I'm not very flexible but I actually get JS now.

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

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

js man!

When you find a bug in a "min" js file and you don't have the not minified version anymore... ok, it's not a bug it's a feature.

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

js js everywhere. :p

Porting someone's jQuery plugin to regular JS (ES6 ftw) feels so good.

Tiny little line of random JS code.
"No Comments in the code"
Me: I think this is not required, let me remove it.
"Deletes the line..."
*Entire App Breaks*
Me: OK, It must be important.
"Cmd + Z"
*Plot twist: The APP is still broken*

Guess who just needs to stay up late in office.

People who write ridiculous JS variable names that are impossible to understand or are just unreadable!! WTF!! Don't tell me it's to save bytes because its getting minified anyway. You're just fucking lazy.

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

Fuck you Ajax
Fuck you js
Fuck you jQuery
Fuck you {{insert js frameworks}}

I've been learning ajax now and this shit happend

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

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

I'm just saying... The guy who decides to come up with the ".js" TDL, is gonna get rich preettyy faast...

String.substr()'s second fucking argument is a length not an index.

FUCKING WASTED 10 MINUTES ADJUSTING PERFECTLY GOOD FUCKING LOGIC BECAUSE JS IS A BITCH!!!

Thank fuck the fix was just to use string.substring() instead or I would've killed myself

Thank God for JS

Learning JS frameworks is like:
Oh my god it's 2016, no one uses jQuery anymore.
Angular is so 2015.
Here, use these 25 super cool libs instead.

Alright. Fuck it, I'm doing it.

The argument I had with a friend that told me "why bother with JavaScript when I can use jQuery" has pushed me too close to the edge.

Time to teach him the ways of vanilla js and blow his mind with the new power he'll have with not relying on a js library.

Person: Do I need to learn HTML, CSS, or Js to make a website?
Me: ALL THREE 😂😂😂😂😂🙄

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,
Team JS

Not using vanilla js for simple function

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.

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

Unit testing in JS be like...

Well it seems Facebook's JS obfuscator is so good even Microsoft Edge can't read it...

SCRIPT1014: Invalid character
xob7zskxXZd.js (1,6)

Thanks Anniversary Update...

JS vs ES

JS you drunk?

> making a promise library because why not (js cant have too many right?)
> benchmark it against other popular libs
> 1mil ops/sec
> wot

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!");
}

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

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()

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...

No matter how many frameworks and supersets I try, I always conclude that nothing beats vanilla JS. ES6 in particular is such a beautiful language, and I love having fine control over what happens under the hood.

When I'm done I can just transpile it to whatever ES version, although it's slowly becoming a non-issue.

Hi guys I'm new in dev
I was wondering what was best to learn first : Angular, React or Vue ?
I already know JS and JQuery.
Thanks guys :)

it's happening boys and girls! The day has come that I learn JS!!!!!!!!

JS be like:

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

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

"0" == [] | FALSE

So today my Web Publishing professor wrote html in Word...

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

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!

Nuke.js

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

Recently started using js without semicolons...

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

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

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

A cannon was fired before it was even loaded.

#js

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

I can't stand this JS is sooo fast bullshit anymore. You just suck at coding if your code with the most other languages is significantly slower.

Wanted to try either of Angular Js or Meteor Js. Which one shoul I?

Actual production js code from a large insurance company.

Debugging JS,

*uses chrome devtools*, breakpoints work, everything loads, can work on fixing bug

*uses firefox devtools*, takes more time than IE to show up, the UI doesn't show up, can cry in the corner.

Why is firefox debugger so bad :/

While developing my meme website I think my newest js-file is oddly satisfying to look at ❤️

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

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

WIP
i finally have something to learn html/css/js for now 👌

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"

JS frameworks.

it's great how most are easy to use and very useful.

i dont know why people hate this abundance of choice, if theres too many for you to chose than you need to be more decisive.

Makes typo, JS is the worst language ever who decided to put it on a server, fixes typo, JS is the best language ever I love Node.js.

Coding and debugging in js

Every time I try to refactor old js code!

Not much of a haxk, just a stupid thing that works.

In my hs videogame programming class, the teacher has this program called LANSchool (most of you have heard of it) which he used to restrict apps/browsers to the point of uselessness . He didn't (and still doesn't) know anything about the stuff he 'teaches', most is tought by TAs.

Here's the dumb part: he WHITELISTED APPS. A friend, one of the TAs, figured out that if you rename something 'Google Chrome', lanschool wouldn't care. So I got Chromium (for unblocked internet) and switched its blue icons in the exe for original chrome icons, then renamed it 'Google Chrime'. Woo.

LANSchool is such a bad program (you can even unblock a site by spamming the F key for refresh).

The teacher did, and still does, treat the TAs like trash. He's a babysitter while students listen to online vids and the TAs.

Next Gen Nazi-style coding style enforcement for JS Projects

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

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.

For lovers of JS

Pet peeve: the claim that static typing prevents errors.

Today I worked on a C# project that's a mess of nulls, side-effects, inferences, and race conditions. Then I went back to a JS project that's twice the size but written in a clean, well-tested, FP style and currently has fewer than 10 issues logged.

Look, I get that there are upsides to static typing, and I'm open to introducing typescript or flow for our JS code.

I just can't stand the faux-concern from the static typing dingleberries when they are the ones who produce these horrendous lumps of unmaintainable shit, and the JS/Python/Ruby/etc people are over here quietly reinventing functional programming and code modularity.

sometimes explaining 'this' in js to an intern is like magic card trick. 'is THIS your card?' nope.

When you want to make an unlinked copy:

JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj))

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

Aspiring freelance/junior web dev here, I'm familiar with WSGI (using Flask), some PHP, Apache, JSON, and Vanilla JS. What other technologies should I be learning to make myself more marketable?

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?

Got commissioned to write a simple js function. Drafted in python. Changed up some variable names while translating, but forgot to change one, and changed another to the old name... Spent a week trying to find the bug in a 30 line piece of js that worked perfectly in python. FML

I am a student working on an academic project. I had put up a request for people with experience in JS to help out with the web UI. There is this girl in my class who was very excited to hear that and offered to help.

Turns out that she has developed a couple of Android apps and she thought Java is same as JavaScript.

I tried explaining her and she called me a jerk for not appreciating the help -_-

Kyle simpson the author of "you don't know JS" said after 17 years of experience writing JS he still don't have the bold to say that he's a master of JavaScript. Kyle are you trolling at us?

The fact that something like JSFuck can exist just shows how quirky JS can be.

EJS IS THE BEST!
It's just js + html, no additional crap!
Why isn't it used more frequently?
(aside from the lack of components; but for small projects those are not really worth it anyway.)

Full stack development between Python and JS eventually just makes your eyes cross as you confuse things like object definition syntax, '!=` vs `!==`, `.upper()` vs `.toUpperCase()`, `' '.join(list)` vs `array.join(' ')`

First time joined js13k competition, without concrete reason. Just wanted to try out am I able to use my JS knowledge and fit game into 13kB. And actually, I'm really happy with final shape of game. Did anyone else participated? :)

I just came with a problem trying to get the value of an HTML input of type date and trying to throw it into a Javascript Date object... After about an hour of searching (Google, Stackoverflow) I realized HTML5 date inputs use UTC timezone (defined by W3C) and Javascript uses your local timezone and this difference is messing with my code giving me a JS obvject 1 day before the HTML date...
Why they do this kind of thing?
