Despite what people may say, ES6 is turning out to be a pretty great language all around. Type coercion is still pretty annoying and is there to stay, but the new features are all mostly well done.

- kevincennis 12y agoHadn't seen that proposal before. It's definitely interesting. My first impression is that it's kind of confusing to read, but I suspect I'd get used to it. Sort of similar to some of the destructuring assignment stuff, e.g. `let { address: { street } } = user;`. Awkward at first, but now I'm kind of into it – although I still think people are likely to abuse it.
