Both. Hard to understand react without some knowledge of jQuery. Also make sure you have a really good understanding of vanilla javascript. There is no free lunch (Unfortunately)

Re:Ask HN: Do you think VueJS will surpass React? on Saturday March 18, 2017 @10:27PM (#13904809)
VueJS does not have the backing of Facebook and cannot compete on that issue alone.

The human brain understands objects more intuitively rather than abstract mathematical objects.

It is more difficult than OOP because of its strong association with mathematics (ie category theory and logic). Without this background knowledge it becomes like a magic black box with monads, monoids, applicatives..etc etc

Re:Ask HN: Best books on meditation? on Tuesday August 09, 2016 @01:54PM (#12256451)
Anything by Joko Beck. It talks about meditation in the context of daily living. Highly recommended.

Look at the spiritual side of things. What does it mean to be happy. Who defines success, you or your peers. How long does it last?

I can really relate your feelings about women, been there done that. Am now married with two kids and looking back at things I was totally wrong in the assumption that a drop dead gorgeous person would make you happy.

You see, happiness comes from within and is not defined by things like jobs, partners, things you own. If I could choose a religion for you it would be Buddhism, follow the steps and happiness is guaranteed.

All the best

Josh what really bamboozles me about your code is this..the console function returns an object, yet at no time is the text being forwarded to the function ie. var console = function(text) { ... } so when you say console.log("information...") how is function getting the string??

Re:Ask HN: Why should one learn Go? on Tuesday July 22, 2014 @08:11AM (#8068486)
some people are talking about "go" - oriental chess and other about golang - new google programming language. There is some confusion here... by the way they are both worth knowing IMO. Cheers
Haskell for me I like the most. Hmmmmmm
