   @zachleat this is such a pet peeve of mine, like what js framework are they using where components don't have any names whatsoever?

      @aaadaaam @zachleat Alpine.js – as long as you do not use partials or extract your JS, you don't have to name anything.

   @zachleat you would think these people would write amazing code with all the time they're saving thinking of names, but they still don't

   @zachleat I think it’s just a front for not knowing how the cascade or specificity works. They still have to do just as much naming if they’re using a component system. It’s tapping into the “two hardest things about computer science” saying as a way to cover up the real problem.

      @knowler I do think @hi_mayank had some good counterpoints about internal naming versus external naming that I’m pondering.
