   One optimization I do often - don't load the FB scripts until someone actually hovers over an FB like button or share box. 99.9% of the time, they never do. In the meantime, just mock the look of the button. We even mocked the like cou

   Cool project! Seems like its capabilities are somewhat similar to Hammerspoon, an OS X project where you can script almost anything in the OS with Lua. I believe it was forked from Mjolnir. I use it for window management (which is it awesom

   I built a service for this a few years back - it encrypts and decrypts on each side, all in JS. It's pretty quick with web workers. https://securesha.re

   This is a nice simplistic implementation for basic apps but could lead to a painful rewrite if you start integrating languages with significantly different grammar constructs than your home language. If you're really serious about inte

   HAProxy 1.5 does a pretty great job with that stuff now. I agree that the configuration syntax can be difficult but it is very powerful. There are some limitations of course, and I can see why you might want to use nginx for some routing. O

   Same here. Late 2013? Exact same problems, somewhat mitigated in Yosemite (fewer complete crashes) but still the occasional garbled screen or inability to switch to dGPU. Weirdest problem: can't start up the MacBook (physically) cold w

    +1 for Primus. We moved to it on BitMEX from a custom SockJS + Mux-demux setup and the transition was painless. We now get the ability to change transports based on client (so our API clients get the very fast standards-compliant node `ws`

    It's just a nice way to split up concerns. In React-Router-Component, the RouterMixin [1] mixes in the Environment Mixin [2] which allows the Environment to address its own concerns in a separate file and to be included in other, custo

    We have a few rather complex mixins in React-Router-Component and react-mixin's decorators worked just fine [1]. The only limitation I see now is a mixin that defines more mixins; this currently doesn't work, but there's no r

    I am not sure it is so bad there. I lived in HK from 2013-2014 and the pollution was bearable. About 60-120 on the AQI scale (PM2.5)[1]. By US standards that's orange/red (bad) but you get used to it. In comparison, Beijing is rou

    The Firefox/native version of the page works much better than the jQuery version. Both are a little bit janky with touchpad scrolling, but the native version allows you to scroll to the next page before waiting for the animation to f

    Glad to see discoveryd is toast. That's a big win and hopefully it's a symptom that some manager on the OS X team is starting to notice how sloppy development has gotten in the last few years. On a related note, how insane is it t

    This is a very well-written piece and I really enjoyed reading Jorend's analysis of "Open" vs "Close" hash table performance [1] linked in the article. All four of these collection types are sorely needed in JS and

    Unfortunately, even though my MBPr exhibits exactly those issues, it is a Late 2013 model so it doesn't qualify.

    I own a 2014 MBPr with the Nvidia chip and I'm thinking the AMD chip would be a big improvement. I see major visual artifacts whenever the GPU switches, it locks up frequently, and external monitors rarely work. Maybe a bad chip, actua

    Features, I suppose. Bluebird has many more helpers than the spec, and it may actually be faster than the first round of native Promises. We'll see how it evolves.

    Great article; a few things I would add. I use bluebird for Promises, which is just the most fantastic Promises lib ever conceived, no joke; if you haven't used it try it. So some of these may be Bluebird-specific: 1. Don't wrap c

    This is the right answer. This will effectively keep React from touching the element ever again after the initial render.
