I believe the reason a function or method in an object does not need the “function” keyword has to do with the fact that JS is built on the prototype model and the fact that functions are first class in JS.

As the saying goes, “Everything is an object in JavaScript…” (which is not strictly true).

Effectively?

Yeah, that’s what it means.

As someone paid to write code that interacts with D365… I see myself in this meme.

It’s false. Different memory addresses, etc.

I write back end JS, when I’m not writing back end C#.

It’s totally fine. In fact, Node makes it a great back end language. I find that the infamous quirks of JS fall into two categories - “common enough that you internalize the rules for them” and “edge cases that almost never come up in practice.”

And when you write back ends in JS… you aren’t on the endless new framework treadmill!

Yep, or go proofread some JSON…

I’m sorry, but today is Monday…
