all these kids chasing the new frameworks...jQuery and .NET framework have always kept me fed!

I mean… jQuery and .NET (6+) can still feed you very well :D

believe me if it was up to me I would get off framework this week hahaha

so true, 15 years of jQuery for me, it's my go to.

Someone should just hook up a virtual dom to jQuery, it's got a whole plugin ecosystem that AI could really re-use. Jquery + Jquery UI + Jquery Plugins + AI is probably a super power we're all overlooking.

The first time I read this I assumed you were joking about hooking up a virtual dom. But I think you're being serious.

Why hook up a virtual dom when you have a real one? Unless you're saying AI can't interact reliably with a real browser yet.
