int32 said @antigermgerm yeah I just want to build a fucking form with 3 fields that has to post the data to an API endpoint. It shouldn't take so much work to this, it's mind-bogglingly complex. Don't know who picked Angular for this front end. Fuck that person too.,I hate Angular,@PaperTrail do they log out highly sensitive data like the ones I found on our production app?,@cuddlyogre backend API calls spew out a bunch of unnecessary data that the front end doesn't require to operate. It's the architect's way of doing things, apparently it's better to just return as much data as possible to get started with and then clean it up later. Which never happens :D,@PaperTrail If it's a bunch of things like "here" and "this" and random text like that, then it doesn't bother me too much, but when it's massive objects with all of the backend API data in it, no.,Claude and ChatGPT when I have to work with Angular. Boilerplate for doing basic things is exasperating.,@TrayKnots Yep. I've had to work with so many wild west style repos, most of them JavaScript/TypeScript and it's cognitively taxing.

I think code standards are necessary, but not to an extent that it starts detracting from creativity and start looking like nit-picking.

Not necessarily for only legacy code, but trying to add a feature or fix a bug where there's a bunch of different developers' coding styles and zero standardisation, it makes things a lot harder to understand and will most possibly lead to burnout and the company will bleed good devs.,@CaptainRant I agree. I'd rather work WITH the team to get a shared idea of how they work and set those as the "guidelines". I'd hate to disrupt people's way of work for arbitrary rules, I hate those.,We work remotely, but I worked in an office before where they had a TV right above my head playing music all day long and I had trouble focusing. It wasn't bad music, but it's still bothersome.,@PaperTrail @PaperTrail Hah! It is what it is, I am just ranting. I use console logs on a daily basis, but remove them once I am done before committing.``` |
