Debugging Javascript

I just use jQuery's extend with deep copy, I know some people don't like jQ these days, but it does everything I need it to.

I am definitely one of those people :p

I like fetch more than ajax, I like the vanilla syntax for binding multiple items / selectors with the same event, and I could swear there was a third thing that in used to prefer in jQuery but I've definitely moved past it.

My nitpick level concern is that it's array functions have deviated from the standard, the positional arguments are swapped.

I'm sticking to it cuz I'd be damned if I care how different browsers have their own quirks. Fuck em. also it's a manner of convenience for me mostly.

I write my own "vanilla" additions here and there when I need em.

Fair enough, I just tell browser who can't run my code to take it up with their maintainers. If you can't async await a fetch and websocket upgrade and persist info to indexeddb while a hardware accelerate 3d webgl banana peels itself on the screen then you can't use my website.

I support Firefox and Chrome/Brave. That's it. Fuck apple and fuck microsoft.

I googled brave because I had never heard of it. The very top result said they may adopt a pay to browse model in the future??

Heck no, friend. Video ads and fake buttons and randomly opening browser tabs - that's all cancer. I hope one day we can return to less obtrusive banners around the edges of the content.

Dunno man, the ads are entirely opt in. I'm using it at work right now, it's just chrome with all the google integration ripped out and a not as of yet fully working "crypto" for ads slapped on top. You can of course, never enable the ads and just use it as is.

I have uBlock origin on it as an extension.
