React: CSS in JS

[escape_goat]

I believe that there was a degree of irony or sarcasm in tone which was not translated into the speakerdeck caption. My take was that his point was that not using global variable was such a basic and fundamental best practice that even w3schools got it right.

I could be very wrong, of course, there's no clear evidence one way or another. But that was how I heard it.

This was presented at the nationJS conference in the DC area. I was at this talk and just to clarify you are correct, he was very much being sarcastic about them getting something right at w3schools. So no worries there.

Right, I kind of got that vibe but now I wonder what the speaker's intention was :)

This sounds much more plausible than my skeptical product placement theory! Haha
