Sometimes when I'm writing Javascript I want to throw up my hands and say "this is bullshit!"....

This joke doesn’t seem ready, you sure it’s not a prototype?
I'm crying...🤣
Me today when @aspittel proposed the jokes tag
Yes, please.
The GIF is making me laugh more than the jokes LOL
A good feeling about this I have.
(edited, less annoying gif)
Hahaha!!
Now ... I'm throw up my laptop! 😆😆

"this" is a triumph.
I'm making a note here, huge success.
So I guess Javascript writers unite by coordinating our "hands throwing" from across the globe!
It's window.
global was a mistake...
Finally! This is the first tag I'm following.
Some jokes are all about context
Funny, that's how I feel when Not using JavaScript
This is the first time I’ve wished to put a tag on a blacklist. 😕👨🏻🦳
I don’t follow any specific tags, just enjoy reading across all topics that people post.
If you follow a tag and then give it “negative weight” in your dashboard it will help hide this. We’ll have better blacklist tooling in the future
Didn’t know that, thanks!
Yeah, for anyone else that's curious: If you go to dev.to/dashboard/following and give a tag a number like
-100for weight, it will virtually never show up in your feed. The mechanic of first following and then negative is weird and we'll eventually make it more intuitive and discoverable.Can you call it z-index? Or is this a bad place for a css joke?
Thanks for genuinely making my day.
Why did the developer had to quit her job?
Because she didn't get arrays. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Ha
Love the new tag! Can’t believe we didn’t have it yet.
