Mine is that the useState hook is an actual plague on the entire React ecosystem. Regardless of your opinions of React, if you wanna use something then use it right.

Printers and fax machines are completely outmoded and should be removed from every environment.

Germany and Japan would like to have a word with you.

Having lived in both, I'd like to talk to the Managers please

I definitely agree with fax machines, do you not feel that physical copies of things have value?

I disagree even with fax machines being removed. It's a redundancy that doesn't use the internet, but telephone lines, and as such has value.

Is there still an independent phone infrastructure though? In Germany at least, it's all VoIP as far as I know, so Fax machines add very little redundance...
