And whenever you have a chart of historical data like this, you have to at least consider that an increase could be reflective of either improved diagnostic or record-keeping abilities.

I am Lucy Liu. Give me your spines.

It's probably also related to when a person first encountered JS. If you learned it pre-2015—even if you're aware of the changes made in ES6—I can see how it would be hard not to view JS as cumbersome. I personally love to use it, but I can't imagine that would be true without let, const, classes, etc.

Edit also block scoping and arrow functions!

Good to know. Thanks.

Zoom out if necessary. It's the band of the town/area.

My brother liked Cars and Trucks and Things That Go so much that it became all he wanted my mom to read him. To entertain herself she started reading it as Cars and Trucks and Things That Stop, just using opposites for as many words as possible. This, of course, backfired and after his initial frustration, my brother preferred her to read it this way.

Yes. Or even composition of words. I remember during a class discussion translating "Thanksgiving" as "Danksgebung" on the fly. At least I greatly entertained my professor—and I'll never forget "Erntedankfest".

Naja. So ist es wenn man eine Fremdsprache spricht. Ich genieße nur diese Momenten wenn ich sie identifizieren kann. 😁

What backup utility did you use?

Ditto Sync for Lemmy. Once the API shit started going down and I first started using Lemmy, I would not have dared to hope that any of the third party apps would migrate here too, let alone multiple.

Reminds me of my first day studying abroad in Germany and trying to ask a random guy at the train station to borrow his lighter.

Me, miming lighting a cigarette: "Wie sagt man—" Him: "Man sagt FEUER!"
