Maybe AIs should create an AI to help them code.

I’m thinking WaaS

I never said it shouldn’t be the other way around too, why would I need to? Should I mention everything that is going wrong in this world when I’m talking about one thing?

How am I responsible for iOS to Windows ports?

They are now finally putting some work in to improve it. I don’t remember much what I used to hate particularly, it was mostly UI related, bugs or the bad Mac implementation.

The new combined view with chats and teams is much better than the split sections.

It took them until just recently to have a basic code block format like everyone else, instead of this annoying editor-in-editor mess they had before (and still kept for some reason).

It used to be very buggy like you had to hunt down the source of some notification to mark it as read. It still doesn’t 100% sync with Outlook. If an event is cancelled and I click delete in Outlook, I also have to go to Teams and „read“ this update. You can set group events in Teams but they somehow don’t end up in Outlook.

What I really like are the clay-like emojis designs.

I think it’s great and I’ve been working with it for 6 years. Many issues were resolved over time. We didn’t even have hooks back when I started! Those were dark times. And the new compiler helps with memoization.

I think it’s especially great for smaller apps/sites or prototyping. Setup is quick if you’re already comfortable with CLI tools and configs. Or if you just want to get started immediately with no setup, just add a script into your site and when it needs to go into production later you can still do the setup process for a robust build.

It helps to avoid the specificity problem. You don’t have to manage a complicated class system, you just set styles directly on the elements. Yes this is pretty much what everyone agreed in the past was the worst thing to do but that was before things like CSS variables existed (which Tailwind uses excessively) that lets you control details like color and fonts from a single point. So you don’t have to go through every component to change the brand color.

At work we don’t use Tailwind often but in our React apps we mostly use Theme-UI which lets us write regular CSS on each element in a nice JSON format instead of the class name hell that is Tailwind. This is my preferred way.
