Their focus on corporate users must be why their sdk's are horrendous for a migration to their v2 api.

Most users I know are on extensions while their javascript sdk is broken.

Async/await was the pitfall for one project as they weren't just held up but they changed API during experimental implementations. Less concerning now you can write codemods to transform but if you don't own the code it's better to keep your client a little behind and safer.

"At Grab, we use ES2015 (with Babel Stage-0 preset) to enjoy the productivity boost from the syntactic improvements the future of JavaScript provides and we have been loving it so far."

You've not been using it that long then! Stay alive and stick with Stage-3

Yeh we have yearly MOT in the UK as well. It's called corporate lobbying and hindsight. Funnily enough it was a German car.

Good to see you realise your slippery slope argument to begin with. My arguments were as ridiculous as yours sounded as well as invalid. The contribution here was the growing separation of diagnoses in MCS and VPS which to some of us has been a life long battle as pro-euthanasia often use the argument people who are VPS aren't aware so their is no moral obligation to consider the impact on their life. I went through a high court case where they used MCS to avoid legal settlements to my family when the indicators used by the consultant in this case clearly work towards a new way of diagnosis so we can seek independent advice

After all, risk of head injury in the type of cars young people drive isn't always related to using their safety features. The seatbelt was assumed to cause the most damage in the collision as it caught him and threw his head back into the B pillar.

Coming from someone who's brother had the same injuries with a seatbelt, in near exact conditions, I'd tell you remain cautious in opening your mouth again. Should I also blame my brother for driving in icy conditions, or, the government for the roads not being made for these conditions? I bet you made the same sort of mistakes at his age, one too many drinks for getting in car, a lack of a seatbelt or even unsafe sex can cause the same anguish and cost to the 'tax payer'. Just because you didn't have any repercussions for your childish mistakes doesn't mean that everyone who has was pushing their luck every day of their life. Also, the passenger in my brothers accident wasn't wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the car on impact and suffered minor injuries. Go figure.
