This article is kind of sad. In part because it comes from its author, who usually writes interesting stuff. But this one is ranty -and no, it doesn't make me angry. It's ranty and also fluffy, light in content, scarce in any arguments or conclusions other than "youth these days! they don't even try!". I'm not young and I still find this article poor.

After going through the first two thirds of the article with mostly uninteresting "I'm old; I know better" detours, the author seems to sort of relate React to "reactive", and goes on yet another detour on unrelated architecture. So, we're now reaching the end of the article and the only conclusion we get is... hey, stuff is hard, you need to do the work, you can't avoid putting in effort. And... that's it. That's all there is to the article. Eh.
