UIs are big, messy, mutable, stateful bags of sadness.

I'll never understand this obsession with immutability. The universe is a "mutable state". Get over it.

@grishka no. this is all i have to complain about.

@grishka @samhenrigold In real life we deal with mutability because we _have_ to. Computers are one of the only places where we (mostly) control the environment in which we solve our problems. So why not make things easier for ourselves?

@samhenrigold Yes they're hard to model, but then again it's our job to model things

@samhenrigold probably because they're used by huge, messy, bags of sadness 🥲

@samhenrigold the funny(/sad) part about that article is that react UIs are still big, messy, mutable, stateful bags of sadness. And hooks. Also bags of hooks.
