ES Modules are terrible, actually

ES Modules are terrible, actually

This post was adapted from an earlier Twitter thread.

It's incredible how many collective developer hours have been wasted on pushing through the turd that is ES Modules (often mistakenly called "ES6 Modules"). Causing a big ecosystem divide and massive tooling support issues, for... well, no reason, really. There are no actual advantages to it. At all.

It looks shiny and new and some libraries use it in their documentation without any explanation, so people assume that it's the new thing that must be used. And then I end up having to explain to them why, unlike CommonJS, it doesn't actually work everywhere yet, and may never do so. For example, you can't import ESM modules from a CommonJS file! (Update: I've released a module that works around this issue.)

And then there's Rollup, which apparently requires ESM to be u

Script to continuously force Samsung soundbar sound mode
#!/bin/bash
# This works around a STUPID issue on Samsung TVs/soundbars which will always
# set the sound mode to Game and never switch it back when game mode is
# enabled once.
#
# This script just sets the sound mode to whatever you want every 2 seconds.
#
# 1. First connect your soundbar to your SmartThings account
# 2. Find your soundbar's device ID here: https://my.smartthings.com/advanced/devices
