JavaScript await was rogue rogue along
- bung 1y agoI'm really sorry this is my contribution/comment atm, I'm very interested in this stuff, but I am having a hell of a time reading this. Even if you keep the font I can't figure if some increased letter-spacing would help, really though I need some line-spacing and paragraph margin bottom for the love of god it's a contrasty text wall blur and I can't focus :( I'm getting old I guess, coding since the late 90s, and here we are finally the point my optometrist warned me about that I'll need glasses soon lol
- timewizard 1y agoAs always, mdn has the best javascript documentation, which clarifies the reason this mechanism exists and the fact it actually takes two callbacks: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise#thenables https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe...
- chihuahua 1y agoNot just the formatting, but also - why does it start with this sentence: > Don’t tell me you don’t know await is rogue too, jess christ. What is that supposed to mean? "rogue"? "rogue too"? "await" is rogue, but something else is also rogue - what is that something else? "Jess Christ" - why is the author (apparently?) exasperated at the very start of this page? Why does someone write like this? Apparently not with the goal of being understood.

- Dylan16807 1y agoSo are we going to define the word "rogue" here? "uses duck typing"?
- mediumsmart 1y agoI know it’s rogue when it fails . . . await for it. . jslint.com

- rendall 1y agoSo we're all just going to ignore the fact that the title says rogue rogue?
- Dylan16807 1y agoI almost mentioned it but the article page doesn't have that typo in the title and I'm too busy asking for clarification about the text.
- rendall 1y agoI almost didn't mention it but I'm petty.
