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.

I remember on Reddit several years ago I said that automatic bitlocker is the curse of installing W11 on a laptop.
I got down voted so hard. One comment even said you should be thankful because encrypting by default should be the norm.
But yet if I add any thunderbolt device to my windows before I boot it, it requires me to input my 25 character bitlocker key... that's hosted online within my Microsoft account.
Bitlocker enabling by default without user input is horrible. Hosting the keys online is also horrible. It could be so easy to socal engineer into your Microsoft account.
I disagree
I agree
It shouldn't require a loophole to use Windows without a Microsoft account. Cloud hosting the bitlocker key does remove a lot of the security benefit in the first place. But I also recognize if you're going to enable it by default, you have to automatically store it somewhere since most people will not save it themselves. But Microsoft should not be able to access the keys either, they should be fully encrypted without the users password.
