You can wrap everything in unsafe and keep living dangerously!
unsafedoesn't deactivate memory safety. It only allows you to then create raw pointers and whatnot, which you could use to circumvent memory safety, but all the normal language constructs still do enforce it. -
JavaScript frameworks actually exist for two reasons, one, vanilla JavaScript lacks ease of use (does not suck and I don't care who disagrees) and two, people love over engineering the fuck out of technology. See: technology since the iPhone came out. We have advanced systems around the world spinning up processes to make up for the fact that touch screens are hard to type accurately on.
Immediate mode rendering and components seem to be why people use them. And you know what? The web should natively support those but doesn't (well it kinda bad components, but ehhh). Otherwise I agree, the frameworks are overcomplicated.

You misspelled nesting tables

It's still Javascript.

Most pages don’t need dynamic loading.
My menus need to be dynamically reloaded!

I was so pleased when a brief for a thing at work was "no frameworks".

The collective man-hours this would have saved people, if we had it back in 1999, would be staggering.

Wait until you see what they do to avoid learning SQL or Regex or JSON Pointer or XPath.

Unless those are mostly overly complicated, it doesn't speak to what I'm saying. But I guess it means people like doing their own engineering better than relying on others

OP, I don't think you've correctly linked to the post (when I visit the linked webpage, the browser tries to download an ActivityPub activity instead of showing the post in the Mastodon web UI). Please replace the link with this one.
got it, my bad

I worked with some pretty dumb people who mocked me for years as the guy who couldn't design a UI to save my life because the product I inherited was designed by someone in the 1990s. it wasn't pretty but it was functional.
any time a UI request came in for the new product and I would try to take it, the PM would pull it and give it to someone else. "oh, their skillset is better suited for UI/UX." I was told.
I got fed up with it and designed my online portfolio. used it to showcase my work and skills even documented my process from mockups to design iteration and final products.
I then posted on linkedin my new portfolio and listed myself as open to connect. within a day the PM made a point to pull up my portfolio on standup and asked me where I got the template. told them, "no template. as you can see in the documentation I designed it from scratch using HTML5 CSS3 and JavaScript. I also included the js packages I used."
they were stunned and immediately started to shuffle some UI tickets my way. I just said, "sorry, my skillset is better served for backend requests."
I quit two months later after a few interviews that seemed to go well. I hated that shithole.
moral of the story? don't discourage people from taking on tasks they aren't obviously suited for. they might just surprise you.
