I need to stay off of LinkedIn y'all. The amount of borderline web development hype-driven disinformation is getting ridiculous. I'm going to lose it if I see one more AI-generated comparison image of how the React `use` API CHANGES DATA FETCHING FOREVERRRR (no disrespect to the use API)

a few random examples: cool cool laravel! wait what am i looking at I love Node but... really? We're advertising Node, a javascript runtime, for "realtime" "high-concurency" workloads?

Having started learning Go, Node's implementation of concurrency is sad to say the least. However, WASM threads are very exciting improvements that I wouldn't discount.

It's less that Node strictly can't do concurrency, but it's far from what it's known for. Especially compared to yeah, Go, or even like idk Erlang/Elixir/Gleam/anything on the BEAM. My frustration is at this linkedin slop appearing everywhere.
