“That sounds good.” - Curt Cignetti, responding to what it feels like to be heading to the national championship with the same energy your dad would when you ask if he’d like a grilled cheese for lunch

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...

I’ve seen just one counter-protester at No Kings San Diego. He’s got a Trump 2024 flag and this guy has been following him around for probably an hour playing Benny Hill and circus music.

I've had the same conversation ~100 times in my career, and I'll never be convinced there's a good reason to give a component more responsibilities, rather than achieve the same result thru composition.

Gotten better at accepting it as a debate I won't win tho.
/** * To me, a component like Tag is just meant to present data * in a certain way * * Any functionality needed, I'd prefer to handle thru composition, * rather than do this: */ function Tag({ children, onClick }: { children: React.ReactNode, /** * It's the optionality here that I think is bothersome * A Tag is probably most often used just for display, but maybe * you want to use it for some functionality. * * So now to be accessible, we should really change the element * or at least set the role if there's an onClick handler */ onClick?: () => void }) { return ( <div style={someTagStyles} role={onClick ? 'button' : undefined} onClick={onClick} > {children} </div> ) } /** * Versus making a composition, and keeping the responsibilities * separate */ function PressableTag({ children, onClick }: { children: React.ReactNode onClick: () => void }) { return ( // Pressable already handles the accessibility <Pressable onClick={onClick}> <Tag style={someTagStyles}>{children}</Tag> </Pressable> ) }
