Still one of my favourite libs on the whole planet. I will always love jQuery. It is responsible for my career in (real) companies.

Live on jQuery! Go forth and multiply!

I love tech hype cycles haha, I remember when you got laughed at for using jquery and now it seems everyone’s burned out and happy to go back to a simpler time

Someone should just hook up a virtual dom to jQuery, it's got a whole plugin ecosystem that AI could really re-use. Jquery + Jquery UI + Jquery Plugins + AI is probably a super power we're all overlooking.

  • The first time I read this I assumed you were joking about hooking up a virtual dom. But I think you're being serious.

    Why hook up a virtual dom when you have a real one? Unless you're saying AI can't interact reliably with a real browser yet.
