I think over half of this article is wildly speculative hyperbole. "Here is a list of things we can imagine that DOGE might do with this data:
1. Invent super solider zombies.
2. Blackmail you (you specifically are at risk here)
3. Sell all the data to China who will work with Israel and Mexico to conquer America
You should be extremely worried! Run in Fear of what might come to pass!"
because some guy filled out a request to have admin access to some government data stores. Ridiculous. Between United, BCBS, and existing Chinese infiltrations into OPM and telcos your data is already compromised by real / confirmed bad actors. This is disappointing click bait from the Atlantic and their editors should be ashamed of its publication.
I love it! Can you add SSL though? Does it support gzip compression? What about Brotli? I like that it's small and fast so in addition to serving static files can it act as a reverse proxy? What about configuration? I'd like to be able to server multiple folders instead of just one?
This would basically preclude anybody from interviewing at the FANGs. I believe they have all adopted the Google style leetcode college level trivia questions, completely divorced from the realities of the job. Their processes are so tightly controlled and the duties of the job so far removed from the interview process that I can't imagine what would happen even if you successfully navigated to a job offer.
"Oh congratulations, you made it! You won't see any of the people you interviewed with ever again. You'll be placed on 1 of 3 teams that do things we've never spoken to you about. I'm sure you are going to love it here!"
From a random internet site:
"
The data are correct.
But most people treat 'data' as a singular noun, especially when talking about computers etc.
For example:-
The data is being transferred from my computer to yours.
And I have to be honest, I've never heard anyone ask for a datum.
"
It could be the case that the scientific pluralization is leaking into regular usage because more people are collectively reading / reporting on scientific studies. Alternatively, Google / Grammarly and similar tools might be suggesting it because it's been seen in their training data / examples.
In any case, IMHO 'datum' is a singular point of information, any reference to multiple points of information would make the noun plural.
I for one would love to see Crank.js take off in popularity, shoot up in usage, implement hooks, then be consumed by the next light weight super focuses JS framework.
I think after 20 years of this repeating pattern JS frameworks might finally die off. We can only hope!
