Shit Javascript Coders Say

I’ve been coding in Javascript for over 20 years and I’ve got a lot of strongly held opinions based on those years of experience. I’m going to have a small rant now about stuff I see in the wild that real Javascript developers say to me, that I completely disagree with.

Maybe back in the day before ES6 syntax and modern versions of Node some of these things made sense, but now there is just no excuse.
