Can’t have Hacker News without the hubris! Love it


100% agree with you


I had to check as well. Their logos are also similar.


It’s simply not a better name. If it was, it would’ve caught on by now.


SSR isn’t a craze. Web applications have been served that way for literal decades now.


Read it in context. There's nothing wrong with SSR.


> The whole point of free software should be that I do not have to adapt to some companies's idea of what is modern, if I do not want to.

This hasn’t changed.


Geez. Do you really think the number matters? I would be grateful to the creator even if it was 3 days.


Literal eye roll. It’s close enough.


To me a mathematics paper is more natural than the quoted text, if you afford treating symbols as their language equivalent.

A string of not necessarily related words with nonsensical grammar is about as far from natural as you can get.


The article touches on this by framing chronic inflammation (e.g. exposure to air pollution over years) as the problem.


Surprised by the amount of mentions of ECMAScript here. It’s the worst possible name to me.


People everywhere saying ecma script is a bad name feels like oracle hired people to hate on the best alternative so that demo keeps "fighting the fight" and make oracle lawyers more rich.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with sound of ecma script (maybe it's just a bit difficult on the tongue?). And not, it doesn't read like eczema, there's absolutely nothing related with that name other than the first two and last characters, reading one and the other they are completely different. It doesn't make sense to say they are similar. Stop with the astroturfing.

Everyone I see hating on ecma script simply say it's a bad name without argumenting or say it's similar to eczema, are we 12 now?

Potentially it could cause confusion between the spec and the language. But tbh I think the mistake was to create that differentiation in the first place. Let's just join these two together and there'll be no more head scratching of what is what.


I vote we rename it MOCHAScript, which is my favorite coffee beverage.

ECMAScript comes from the spec for JavaScript, which makes sense.


GotchaScript


JabbaScript


Sounds like eczema :(


Too bad there's no topical creme to get rid of it.


Exactly. I would just rename it to something nicer and forget about Java - it has very little to do with it nowadays anyway. A new name can even retain .js extensions like: JetScript, JoyScript, JuiceScript, JadeScript, JunoScript, whatever...


ECMAScript is the base language.

Javascript is that base + a layer on top .. 'navigator' object, etc.


It won't be called anything other than EcmaScript because there are already millions of references to that name.


meh.

'Java' script was a ridiculous choice which has lead to much confusion.

For all I care it could be called mozillascript (would be historically more 'correct')

otoh anything Oracle wants is bad by default so...


Petition to rename it to SillyScript


Care to state why?


> instead of writing 100 class names for every element, every page, every project, again and again…

I'm turned off from daisyUI with marketing like this. The alternative to daisyUI certainly isn't this.

I use Tailwind in a similar way that daisyUI does: by putting my utility classes in components and reusing the components.

daisyUI's value prop is that not everyone wants to do this for their custom design system. They should just stick to that instead of making false claims.
