This might be the reason, "When I got into the workforce, I always felt excluded. In my first job I got promoted to senior then team lead all within two years largely due to an amazing female manager. Then I got passed to a male manager and suddenly I was a bad employee." Highly detrimental.

It's hard to quantify the answer to this question because nearly every frontend developer has to deal with current lack of native support for styling <select /> elements resulting in every design system or component library doing their own thing to be able to add a different color value or a border.

Use modern tooling like asdf (mac/linux) or vfox (windows) to manage nodejs. All you need to do is install versions you need and add .tool-versions file in directories you need specific version. No need for typying any commands.

What do you mean by that? I import CSS styleshets without any problems, but at work I see people use hierarchies of styled and MU components to add backgrounds and colors, and margins to an input element... and then they wonder why their aps are slow.

I bet it could not be the only explanation for this but in that case it sounds reasonable depending on the size of the stylesheet. But what you lose by doing this is probably not what engineers thought ... "Nobody will use these in browser DevTools, right?"

Nobody documented these steps before but that's what the team was expected to do before a PR could be merged.

Yeah, I've seen them in Russia eating nuts from chess players' hands but not here. In Poland, it's rare to see them, though.

Say what you will about 'Murica but I see squirrels racing up and down the tree in my front yard almost every day... in the middle of a 8 million metropolitan area. And every other day in summer we can hear a pack of coyotes howling on the other side of a creek. In San Antonio I see herds of deer...

Will try that... btw, a slightly customized `open-props` was foundational in a CSS architecture and a component library I created and used throughout a company I worked for (that was two years ago :))... thank you! Great work!
