Neither, just realizing that some people don't like ridicule, even when it's highly deserved and not even affecting them.

I thought I was watching something recorded at Disney World.
The Wagah border closing 'lowering of the flags' ceremony or The Beating Retreat ceremony is a daily military practice that the security forces of India (Border Security Force) and Pakistan (Pakistan Rangers) have jointly followed since 1959.
1959 ???

Is Facebook closing the development of ReactJS or you just don't like using a library from Facebook ?

I know, I was just questioning myself about the "Facebook might shut that down too".

Oh, sorry.

Well if you are learning a new JS framework, you've got to consider that it will be obsolete and replaced in 2-3 years time.

Sure, but that goes with any JS framework. So pick your poison, all of them will kill you.

yeah, it's why it's so hard to write a book on using a JS library - by the time you get to chapter 5, none of your chapter 1 examples work any more

Oh man, after a year of doing Ember development, this is so true.

Been doing Ember for 3 years. Recently left that project. Employer was stuck on v1.6.1 as "upgrading" had so many changes it just wasn't worth it. Front-end will now require a complete rewrite using the mentioned JS framework poison-picking scheme.

Are we not getting annoyed with this by now.
Can we not fins a standard and stick with it. I know we can't but it would be nice

I just started really learning React, coming from Ember. I'm curious to know. Performance wise, everyone copied the virtual DOM idea so it's no longer exclusive to react. There's now Ember Glimmer which is just as fast. And of course Angular 2 is in beta now, which is supposed to also use a virtual DOM as well.
Whatever the case, I'd be willing to bet React will be around for a while. Or I hope so since I'm about to start using it.

The only reason I knew about ReactJS was because I searched on alternatives to AngularJS, after they decided to make a new and not so compatible Angular that required me rewriting a large AngularJS application that was designed to be a template for projects going forward. I also wrote companions to that project in Android and Objective-C and now find myself rewriting the Objective-C app in Swift, not only doing code conversion, but learning incompatible replacements for classes that were recently deprecated. At least Android hasn't changed, although the Oracle lawsuit might change that. One can't depend on anything anymore.

If you want to program against an stable and never changing platform, learn COBOL and move to z/OS. Since most COBOL programmers are retired or retiring soon, you might find there a job that will keep you well fed until YOU retire. Even if you are 20 now.

Last week two of my long time favorite bands have released new material after a long time, so I'm going to cheat a bit in this edition of Song of the Week
Massive Attack - Take It There[^]
Textures - New Horizons[^]
Two songs!
Massive Attack, pioneers in the trip hop genre (do they really need an introduction?), released an awesome new track! I must admit I haven't heard the entire new EP yet. I'm going to see them live later this month!
Textures, pioneers in the mathcore/djent genre, released an entire new CD. Two new songs are on YouTube. Can't wait to hear the entire CD, it features a song recorded with eight(!) drummers
That's two songs that pretty much couldn't be more different from each other. Dark, yet calm, electronic music and hard, intense metal!
Enjoy!

If you like Massive Attack and Trip Hop, there's also a new Tricky[^] album.

Didn't say I never heard of it. As you get older the body tends to cooperate less with the brain and trip hop takes on new meaning.
