Why isn't the author just using a document store instead?
This entire post is defeating the purpose of RDBMS'.
What happens when data needs to be updated? Would that require a number of n update statements in order to change a username for instance?
this is a terrible argument. Would you enjoy going to the toilet when a certain group of people (like your neighbours) could watch you doing your "business"?
using titles is just such a burden.. i'd rather just be myself, who enjoys the hell out of stuff and let people in dire need of belonging come up with titles.
we are driving towards an axiom here I believe. IMO the only way programming will change is the set of tools we are going to use on a daily basis, but no matter how evolved AI is going to be the need to formulate features in a formal manner will always be a requirement. Think of lawyers for instance. To a certain degree they are programmers acting within the boundaries of the law. Basically they are glueing together modules. I think programmers fate will be similar to that
i feel like an alien too but without the drug part (maybe the internet). Not hooked on anything yet still unable to pursue meaningful relationships outside the preexisting few I have left. Lately I stopped expressing ideas to people, since most of them are just rejected or get swallowed up by the void. All i'm trying to say is that there *might* be something more to the social part.
part of the hatred has to come from the fact that it's a tool used for hidden micromanagement. Whenever I experienced Jira being introduced into the workflow, human connection vanished, work became laboring and many times the better devs left the team due to lack of autonomy. Who remained were the people who didn't mind to just work and never question, like factory workers of the 1900's.
I don't mind using Jira as a verbose platform which aims to map project state and helps communication BETWEEN all participants, but this is rarely the case, especially with all those pseudo-agile practices that are part of mainstream software development.
Another part of the hatred may come from the fact that it's an overcomplicated tool for a moderately simple task. This complexity is standing in the way most of the time. I just want a simple board for a simple project with simple issues/user stories/whatevers and update their state which gets reflected on the board. For additional features i want to install/write a plugin and that's it. If I need a manual for software in 2022 it's either trash or something far from mainstream (in which case complexity and/or lack of ux might be acceptable).

It's the main reason behind why instead of bookmarking stuff, I instead archive stuff. Search engines aren't as convenient as they used to be, especially for non-trending topics. At least that's my experience.
I agree with the author on the server part of. It makes sense to make use of something specifically designed for the task at hand.
At the same time the post brings back memories from university when my fellows had these immature arguments about how PHP is the worst language on the planet and it shouldn't be used for anything but as a bad example. It's such a waste of time.
Some arguments of the author make sense in certain contexts, especially if you're used to do things in a certain way and you get other results in JS which is a different language, in a different context (the context being that JS to the web is much closer to what Lua is to game development than let's say Java to backend development). At the end of the day it's just lack of understanding that raises confusion. Only because something is "weird" it doesn't mean it's also bad.
Not like anybody is checking this, I'm speaking from e experience. I had several coworkers over the years who used to live for much longer in Schengen countries without registration. In Austria this works moderately well so does it in Hungary, but of course it has some drawbacks too.
Usually in countries where people tend to curb laws to their liking as well as "forget" to pay taxes (this is the case for Hungary) more often than not, this visa situation not a big deal
