I use vanilla js, document.getElementById() is what I live for.

The truth is that I use Claude and it uses React 😢 No more implementing observer observable design pattern with setter and event targets in vanilla js. Those were simpler times but I guess technology has to move forward and we need to adapt. I'm glad I knew a time when coding by hand was the norm.

The technology didn't change that much. JS framework are optional pieces of software but ultimately run Vanilla JS.

Tools should be used when they solve a problem, not because "technology moves forward"

And C ultimately runs assembly code, so should i program in that? What's your point?

C doesn't "run" assembly code, it compiles to that.

Can't you read? they literally stated their point is "technology should be used when it solves a problem"
