I always just through it was the growing company that lead to the change, but now that you mentioned your experience and I reflect on mine, I think that little 3 man shared off might have been the key to all of the awesomeness and fond memories of my time with that company.

I LIVE IN A SIMPLE WORLD

I must...

Get a handful of people to run one of those in their browsers JS console and watch the world burn.

This reminds me when I asked a person who is now a "worlds youngest self made billionaire" club member how they possibly built paid their bills while in the early phases of their startup, that time when you're too small to even consider funding, but big enough to warrant a couple hires to help lay a foundation. The reply, "Ha! [founder's name]'s family is loaded...".

That's when I realized I had worked on the underlying skills, I had ideas, but I missed the most important part... money and/or rich friends.

Was linked in the article, might shed some light on your question.

Now, about that price point...

Now, carrying it up 3 flights of stairs on the other hand almost made the cheap price not worth it. That thing must have weighed 50lbs.

As the joke goes, "what do you call the guy that graduated last in his class at medical school? Doctor."

Doctor's aren't machines, they're more like mechanics, they see a symptom, use their knowledge to make an educated guess essentially, and then work from there. If their knowledge is soft it's likely an incorrect diagnoses could just be exacerbated by incorrect treatment.

Get another opinion, and then another, the next problem is deciding on siding with consensus or outlier.

If I could take a self driving Uber/Lyft/taxi I would do it in a heart beat, my experiences with Uber/Lyft have been much better than a run of the mill taxi which is why I tend to use them over taxis whenever possible. That being said, a self driving car with no personal motives, road rage, cell phone, etc. sounds like an even better experience.

Also, ProjectZero...

Understanding the key parts of writing JS (closures, scope, GC, etc.) isn't all that hard and it seems like more efforts are geared towards an abstraction layer and/or framework than just learning the language in the first place.

I think it's syntax and familiar looking and feeling environment cheerfully misleads people into thinking they are in a comfort zone, while they thrash around throwing sand in their own eyes, albeit with a familiar looking bucket and shovel.

If you haven't already read Dale Carnigie's "How to win friends and influence people" that book literally changed the way I communicate with people.
