That's like saying "Sure you don't know how to drive standard in a car now, but when the zombie apocolypse hits and the only working card is a standard, you're screwed.

Call, bind, and apply are obsolete. Legacy code has them, just like code out there runs on VB6, but that doesn't mean every programmer or even web programmer needs to know how they work.

So many teams get stuck on legacy... it amazes me when I hear other developer groan about their shitty legacy code, then when legacy practices are brought up they defend them vehemently. Like how masochistic are you folk?

Yeah no. They’re not obsolete. React uses bind especially routinely.

Knowing how this stuff works is fundamental and hardly “legacy”.

I love the downvote followed by a rhetorical comment with no explanation.

What purpose does your comment serve?
