    • @kibertyisgay
      @kibertyisgay Month ago +93

      I think it was in *all chat,* he sees more chat messages than what pops up on stream.
      The stuff that pops up on stream filters spam, so I think the message he read had a lot of h's, so it got flagged as spam and didn't show up on stream.

      jQuery has become obsolete. He says he wants to learn the basics and is actually learning the basics if it was 2010.
      Now that HTML has native support for all jQuery features AND IE9 no longer exists. Native development has become really good.

    You didn't include that JQuery is literally an outdated framework, but DougDoug insisted on using it, calling it the "basics" when the actual basics is just straight JavaScript. He would have had a much easier time if he wasn't stuck on a framework that has been outdated for at least 10 years lol

    • @nyan8399
      @nyan8399 Month ago +57

      JQuery is fine, they even just released a new version like a month ago. I don't like it too much either but it's saner than wathever react is doing these days

    • @Roach606
      @Roach606 Month ago +20

      It was more so Jquery would’ve worked more for other projects he is thinking of.

    • @uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhidk
      @uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhidk Month ago +70

      Didn’t dougdoug say he started with JQuery when he was in college because his computer professor hates javascript or something? I have a feeling it has something to do with that

    • @BurninButter
      @BurninButter Month ago +25

      @nyan8399 I'd still consider javascript to be the first thing someone learning web dev for the first time would learn for adding logic to their site.

    • @ego-lay_atman-bay
      @ego-lay_atman-bay Month ago

      Jquery was made to solve an inconsistency problem with all the web browsers back in the early days. Nowadays, every browser behaves almost the same way, so it's no longer needed. When I tried to use jquery, I literally found myself using more vanilla javascript anyway, so I eventually cut it out (and later moved to vue.js because I needed more reactivity).

    "Serverless" is called that not because the server _only_ exists on demand, but because the idea is you don't have a single central server; instead you give your code to a provider like Vercel and they run that code whenever it's necessary on one of their* many machines, generally selecting one which is closest to the user. This has many downsides, but it also has upsides: latency can be better and also you, as the creator of the website, don't need to worry about hosting a server, containerization, managing deployments, etc. It's "serverless" in the sense that you don't have to deal with having a server.
    *Vercel does not actually own the servers, they just use AWS if I recall correctly.
