me: I need to make a simple web-app for a projectalso me: I need to learn some react basics for a job interview

@foone@digipres.club The whole thing is built on top of two massive anti-patterns (the order of calls to methods [useState and useRef, and thus nearly every hooks] changes their outputs, and implementing logic with exceptions [don't look into suspend too much]) and is so complicated to use correctly that they had to release a precompiler to make it bearable. Of course it's absolute garbage.

[foone@digipres.club]

okay so my first attempt at writing any react code resulted in a hydration error and also my UI elements are rendered black on black, making them invisible

[xferok@tacobelllabs.net]

@foone That's how it goes

[mmu_man@m.g3l.org]

@foone nobody hydrates a pizza like you!

[mirth@mastodon.sdf.org]

@foone Even "good" React is Byzantine and slow. The good news is the inefficiency creates jobs...

[theorangetheme@en.osm.town]

@mirth @foone There's a Keynes quote in here somewhere.

[ben@mastodon.lubar.me]

@foone most of the things I do result in a hydration error and I've never used React

[mellivora@im-in.space]

@foone does that mean you need to drink more water or?

[pyxaron@dragonchat.org]

@foone It took me a moment to figure out that "Hydration error" is an actual thing in react and not just a way of saying it made you spill your drink.

[foone@digipres.club]

What obvious layout am I missing?

[ben@mastodon.lubar.me]

@foone one of those cursed alphabetical ones

[chrisjrn@social.coop]

@foone left single-hand Dvorak, right single-hand Dvorak?

[confusomu@twoot.site]

@foone Bépo!

[fen@yiff.life]

@foone i wouldn't say "obvious", but there is an alternative to the french AZERTY keyboard, BÉPO (it's kinda like the french version of Dvorak), that a bunch of my friends and colleagues use

[foone@digipres.club]

@chrisjrn handedness is handled (no pun intended) at a different layer

[foone@digipres.club]

@Baa Yup yup, added that

[chrisjrn@social.coop]

@foone ok, but single-hand Dvorak then?

[noah@mastodon.despise.computer]

@foone ABCDEF, of course

[lanodan@queer.hacktivis.me]

@Baa @foone Also maybe JIS qwerty aka japanese layout (few characters like parens off by one, plus extra keys)

[foone@digipres.club]

I updated it a bit.

(I should add ĄŽERTY just in case I ever flirt with any Lithuanian tranfems)
