Loosen your grip right before it hits, not enough that you lose control but enough that you’re not going to take much of the impact. It might take an extra hit or two, but it also might mean that you can push it down a little bit harder as well knowing that you don’t have to absorb the impact

I’ve read different defenses for JavaScript for cases like this, which usually runs somewhere from you shouldn’t be doing that anyway all the way up to if you just understood the language better you’d know why.

For what it’s worth, I do like JavaScript. I really don’t think that there is any perfect programming language.

Windows on the front end and Linux on the backend isn’t uncommon these days. Big iron unix is expensive so it was largely moved off of, although there is still some Windows in the back end depending on vendor. I think Epic is Windows across all tiers.

I think I agree with you both. I’m not a Node developer; could you keep your SQL objects/components in a separate file so that they don’t clutter up other logic?

I completely missed the letter f the first time through as well…

Your first example isn’t actually using the present tense, it is using the infinitive form “to lead”.
