Older developers have something that newer ones don't, they've seem this shit before.
Everything that's happening isn't new, it happened before.
I'm one of the older developers who trash de JS ecosystem.
But I'm not just trashing it out of blue. I'm trashing it precisely because we can do better.
I've seem better shit, we know how far better things could be.

Only new thing is this wave of new people.
I offer guidance, if only people would listen, they're too lost, they only listen to the louder, they don't know any better.

I don't just trash the ecosystem, I'm working building better tools to improve it. (webassembly compilers and better programming languages)
It's not the JS ecosystem, it's the Web ecosystem !
JS is just a bad programming language, that should be trashed.

Most of the actual JS ecosystem was created by people who didn't make it yet.

New developers are trying their best, and not succeeding, and it's not their fault, it's the JS ecosystem fault.
When I was a new developer none of the shit was this crazy precisely because native development have 30 years of accumulated experience.

My first programming language was BASIC, I know what's being trashed by it, By the Edsger Dijkstra, one of the best Computing Scientist ever, a real celebrity.
And I say, we can do better, I'm not a programming language, I'm programmer, programmer program, IN ANY ecosystem, not just one. So I went for better things, better than BASIC, I've seen the world, you still didn't.

So I trash when I see trash/ But I've seem this shit before. / I'll see this shit happen again / I can only trash / And trash, until people listen / There's better things / People deserve better things /
