That may say more about her than CS in general. I remember my very first encounter with Angular I made my seniors investigate how the hell double way binding could even work that way to have them confess to me that yes, we had 40k repeating functions running every n seconds to check variable states... for a static website whose double binding was just a first render time convenience. No wonder our mexican clients with shit phones couldnt load the site as well as our iphone-heavy Hong Kong ones. And it was my very first day on Angular.

How can she not be curious, Angular is so wrong and magical, it blows the mind to understand how it builds all that magic. Maybe your sister in law is the kind of persons who laughs at magic tricks ? I d be raging mad myself, I prefer to avoid them or Ill just be obsessed until I understand them
