JS Is Weird
JavaScript is a great programming language, but thanks to the fact that its initial release was built in only ten days back in 1995, coupled with the fact that JS is backward-compatible, it's also a bit weird. It doesn't always behave the way you might think. In this quiz, you'll be shown 25 quirky expressions and will have to guess the output. Even if you're a JS developer, most of this syntax is probably, and hopefully, not something you use in your daily life. 

When I tell my fellow computer scientists or software developers that I'm interested in philosophy of science, they first look a bit confused, then we have a really interesting discussion about it and then they ask me for some interesting books they could read about it. Given that Christmas is just around the corner and some of the readers might still be looking for a good present to get, I thought that now is the perfect time to turn my answer into a blog post! 

How does a developer find a new tool to add to their stack? There’s no single answer, but most will tell you that technical content is part of that journey. Certainly, documentation is crucial to developer experience. But more often than not, the first piece of content they’ll discover is a helpful resource returned as search results or shared from another dev. Your goal is simple: be that resource.

I think you might want to be a software developer for a long time, in the same way that some people are musicians for a long time, or artists for a long time, or roofers for a long time. If not, you can hit “back” in your browser. It’s cool, no harm no foul. But I think maybe you would like to be a twenty-year programmer, or forty-year, or more. 

As we all probably already know, unlike Angular, where we already have a predefined way of structuring files, in React, that burden, or gift, depending on how you look at it — is bestowed upon us, the valiant developers. 

This quick post will tell you how you can upgrade your Angular 6 project within 10 minutes to the new Angular 7 (at the moment of writing beta-7, edit: now major version).
