Oddbean new post about login | logout No excuses, JavaScript is definetly not getting trashed enough. There are still people out there using it, just imagine.
Using JS is marginally acceptable. What grinds my gears is a) using it for things that can be done just as well with HTML/CSS, for much lower resource use, and b) using off-the-shelf JS libraries with a rabbit hole of nested dependencies, without making any attempt to audit them.
