I was like "gosh I feel like he's just complaining about the organic complexity in the domain" and then he says it at the end:
>So, this entire rant about React... it's not even React's fault. Neither is Angular's, or jQuery's. Simply, whichever tech you choose will inevitably crumble down under the impossible complexity of building a reactive UI.
and then he's like "ok the solution is to just not make big interactive software" and I'm like bro that is the opposite of a solution
separately, and I'm not sure how much this is really a nitpick: the bit where he complains about the two useEffects, that's indeed disgusting but that's because whoever wrote it is an idiot, that should be useMemo, and then it would be obvious to read etc. (well, maybe besides dependency arrays being at the end) -- more broadly I'm a bit like "I think you spent <10 hours using a framework, found it confusing, and got buttmad", which, whom among us, but also once again "bro if you just actually read the docs and spend time with it it's fine"
