everything is an X

[Raoul Duke]

object?

function?

looking at react code with hooks, as much as i think i like FP, i'm really sick and tired of everything being wrapped in ever more layers of indirection through anonymous arrow functions. 

i'd prefer objects methinks. grass is greener, ha ha.

I like the immutability of React, but yes the hooks “DSL” on top of JS can be frustrating. I’ve been using it 

For many years now and still run into infinite updates and other strangeness. The future is about compilers doing the work instead of manually specifying useCallback, useMemo, dependencies etc. (that tools already tell you the answer).
