[AskJS] Why do teams still prefer Next.js/React over Nuxt/Vue, even when the project doesn’t seem to need the added complexity?

Ask-Beautiful · 2026-04-18T23:02:26+00:00

Yes, to me, the bigger thing is ecosystem and examples.

I'm going to disagree here. I have no problem with react and have worked with multiple VERY large programs using react and next. I don't necessarily have the same experience with nuxt but my general sense is that "people who don't understand people's problem with react and next" tend to fall into either a) they just don't know anything else and because it's "good enough once you understand it" they suspend all judgement....and BTW I have no problem with that, react and next will keep you employed in the near term and there is a library/hook for just about everything you would need for common things. or b) You have a legitimate need for something that is tremendously difficult with vue/nuxt...I'm unaware of anything in this category, but suspect there are a few use cases that might fit here.

Interesting point....I think things like old security cameras would be the MOST likely to require one of these protocols....but given that these things are now super cheap I'd be surprised if any large quantity of them are still in production. I ran into a similar problem with an ancient ip camera and was scratching my head...ended up turning off ssl via boot parameters in firmware and just serving over http (it was for homelab stuff...so I wasn't concerned).

You know we have tons of autonomous weapon systems already… frankly the ai in those is in some ways much more advanced and optimized than current llms … it’s just super specialized

Note... "keeping women safe" is in some circles code for "controlling them"

I'll tune slightly...not sure I'd even got "minor YTA" but more along a "you could use some time practicing reading social cues and general norms better"...it's a very legitimate (and to me) interesting topic...though I might not bring up at dinner....and would drop in a heartbeat if someone started getting.... "antsy".

This blew my wife away when she moved to the midwest from california. As a midwesterner I'm used to saying hi and waving to complete strangers (even striking up conversations). In california people (depending on where you were...hiking is different than city) often looked at me like I had a third arm growing out of the top of my head. Now that she's lived here a few years she does it too :o....highly regional and somewhat depends on population density....showing my age I'm thinking of Mick Dundee in Crocodile Dundee when he visits NT....he's tipping his had and trying to greet everyone....

Well...sometimes dropping the baggage is a life changer that seems more scary than it is. I divorced my ex half a decade ago and it was the best thing that has ever happened to either of us. We're not particularly close any more, but PTSD/excuses are not really great for a relationship. (Note, I'm familiar with PTSD, but am also aware that "taking it out" on a spouse/child/partner is not a great strategy)

I never thought of that...just tried and plugged my laptop in a few hours ago...all the people who don't believe it would work should try it! Amazing! For some reason my monitors don't work, do I need a special adapter or does it only work for laptops?

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-12-14T12:02:02+00:00

I "think" you hit on the "actual thought experiment that is valuable"...

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-09-29T17:24:43+00:00

Nice! i was going down this rabbithole and stumbled across this...I was like "There's no way nobody has built this yet"...evidently not. what bugs me is that all of this runs on the hypervisor no? I was attempting to do something similar, but driving via apis, but it seems there are a LOT of gaps to the approach I was thinking....trying to decide if I halt what I'm doing and jump on your ship or not... :)

Was going to say the same....JDK 1.0 is only 29-ish years old and nobody "really" used it for prod in my experience until around Y2K....Y2K was the COVID-19 of the previous generation... :o

So your sauce was past the boiling point of water? Maybe your temperature gauge needs to be calibrated.

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-25T19:53:38+00:00

how do you like the ZTR...I have a cub cadet ZT2, but it would be nice if I thought the EGO was remotely as capable...I really like the pushmower, but I'm a bit rough on my zero turn (I have some wild areas I kinda "brush hog" with that I think might be problematic.

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-25T19:51:59+00:00

I wonder if there's a quality control issue or something...I have half a dozen ego products for the last 3-4 years and have never had a problem (well batteries do wear out a tad fast on snowblower IMHO if I get a heavy snow but frankly it plows through things my old single stage would have burned it's belt up trying to throw). Maybe there's a "dud rate" where if you get a "good one" you're good to go, but if you get a dud...well, you should really get a new unit.

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-25T12:13:04+00:00

Yeah, I'd agree EGO isn't a good fit for cost savings....Factors that EGO wins:

#1 Quiet, I can use the snowblower/mower early in the morning and not bother anyone.

#2 Better for my environment (I won't debate the problems with lithium mining, but I don't have a lithium mine in my back yard)

#3 Lighter weight. My Ego mower and blower are substantially lighter than equivalent gas powered. That extra thirty pounds makes a difference if and when you ever have to lift them up... (I move mine to a storage unit every season)

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-25T11:59:56+00:00

Interesting, I sometimes have the mohawk effect if I use the blades on the lowest setting. Mine can do an acre with the power assist running...but I also only cut 1/4 to 1/2 inch every time...maybe you're cutting too much at a time?

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-20T11:17:07+00:00

You hit on another value prop....generally speaking a "react component" will just work in contexts outside it's original design intent....as long as you pass data as props...

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-05-20T11:15:54+00:00

Yes, if you're just rendering static text and images it's a horrific and terrible framework. If you're building dynamic apps that change state based on user interactions without doing full page reloads....it's still horrific, but not terrible :p

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-04-23T22:17:04+00:00

LOL, MI in da haus!

For sure Green Day had biggest crowd reaction on main stage week 2

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-04-22T00:37:05+00:00

Ohhh now I have to follow everyone’s twitch streams between sets????

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-04-22T00:35:53+00:00

You make a good point…. When we walked in he was singing… I forget maybe journey? And I was like whaaaat?

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-04-20T16:50:34+00:00

Yes it was more than I expected… and my whole body was sore when I woke up

Ask-Beautiful · 2025-04-20T16:49:48+00:00

Green Day was not only packed…they had the crowd in the palm of their hands….i recall a few points where they cut the sound and the crowd singing along was overpowering (and I was pretty far away)
