I don't see how they can use "blurred line" as a positive trait here. There are important differences between native apps and web apps, why hide this information from a regular user, especially when this information can be conveyed by 30 pixels.

It's a moved goal post which sneakily tries to position itself on top of the old adage "never roll your own crypto". Problem is, that adage is really about security whereas "don't roll your own auth" is about not wanting to do a mostly boring part of your job. I'd take my hat off if they'd admit it, but it's much easier to get budget with potential security scares compared to "we don't wanna".
If anyone wants to explore an open-source Meteor project in the wild, a kickstarted project named Pixel Art Academy[1] comes to my mind. Looking through the repo[2] takes me back to CoffeeScript days.
I find that these people feel lost when you tell them they'd be better off just being curious and learning by doing the thing itself. They tend to find comfort in systems like the belt system in martial arts. So, if you feel this way- it might be worthwhile to pick up a few certifications just for yourself.
I know a lot of people who have tried but didn't like Tailwind. I think most people like it on a greenfield project, but that number drops off when they go back to a Tailwind project after some time.
It's an assessment that's designed to find people who are ready to submit to an endless grind with little to no skepticism. Developers who question the technical usefulness of LC interviews are simply not the target audience anymore. The target audience seems to be potential employees that are hungry and without leverage.
> nonstandard web framework (go-macaron)...
The "standard" is React and Vercel offerings. Get with the times.
> ditching go-macaron and xorm for something more widely used...
You're only supposed to use libraries that are #1 popularity in their respective category, few weeks of no commits means the library is dead.
> I would also add that I don’t even like NextJS. I’m recommending it because it’s a better engineering choice...
Yes, you read that right. This is the advice for Gitea: Github, Gitlab, SourceHut all used server-side templates, so much so that latter two are quite useful even when JS is disabled- but the "better engineering choice" (citations sorely needed) is NextJS.
I'd say this is getting pretty close to a 4.5x /s

The project lost tons of good faith back then, and in my eyes (as a brand) never recovered.
