I can't help but notice that in the editor screenshots there's type information in *.js files.

Comments should be reserved for non-obvious information. Github link, complex mathematics etc. Further, at what point does the relevance of a comment end? This ambiguity doesn't exist with a function.

    function addHorizontalScrollbar() {
      hScrollBar = new JScrollBar(scrollBar, HORIZONTAL);
      add(hScrollBar, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    }

    function addVerticalScrollbar() {
      vScrollBar = new JScrollBar(JScrollBar.VERTICAL);
      add(vScrollBar, BorderLayout.EAST);
    }

    function initializeScrollbarCaretPositions() {
      caretX = 0;
      caretY = 0;
      caretMemX = null;
    }

There are valid uses for backgrounds, I'm sure, but generally speaking it's better to show your real environment. Be it a view of your kitchen, or a wall with ugly wallpaper, I don't care. Superimposing yourself on a faux background enters uncanny valley territory.

In all walks of life, there are the weak, the strong, and all colours in the middle. Why do the strongest need to be labeled with an exact number? It implies there's a sort of fixed scale, that someone could be an 7x or 8x engineer. It's a form of gate keeping in the same way that being "senior" engineer was/is a coveted title to be earnt.

The best people should be celebrated and rewarded accordingly, but we should move away from absolutist titles that push people to strive for a completely subjective label.

Other comments address the main themes in this guys article, mostly not having any context on which to base the argument.

If you don't keep up with the trend, you're going to lose out.

- CTRL + CMD + ALT + SHIFT + W = Generates 300MB WiFi diagnostics file (as of Catalina)

- CTRL + CMD + ALT + SHIFT + . = Generates System debug file

None of them worked.

Oh, well. That's okay then.
