I’ve been writing JavaScript for at least a decade now (way before all of these fancy frameworks, build systems, etc.), and yesterday, I googled “JavaScript addEventListener” so that I could remember how to use it. I’d love for someone to tell me that I’m not a “proper engineer” because of that!
Its forgivable because with software dev the gigabytes per year of new information to remember in your head is much higher than other disciplines. It’s darn ridiculous!
