That's a really good idea, I'm considering maybe having an explanation of what the site does that displays before it first asks for your location (once you've said no it can be tricky to undo that) For curious people here: it

Your last location will be visible for about 30 minutes after you close the page. But if you leave it open then it'll carry on updating for as long as you like.

I just added the tutorial to explain how the app works. Feedback very much appreciated!

Please review my new app! It's meant for when you're trying to meet up with someone, just send them a link and you can both see each other in realtime on the map. Comments and suggestions gratefully received! A semi-secret feature

Sounds like they want the software AND the hardware developed for that figure. No problem :)

It's possible using two techniques called continuation passing transform and trampolines[1]. The downside is that the produced code would be a bit ugly and one of coffeescript's selling points has always been that it produces sens

Yes, both updates happened after that comment. In fact that comment provided a little extra motivation for me to get those extra features done :)

I've found one problem with that syntax: people use variables named "from" quite a lot in code already (including all over the coffeescript source)

I just added yieldfrom (like yield* in ES6, includes the output of one generator in that of another) support in a separate branch: https://github.com/almost/coffee-script/commit/67f2347685b45...

I honestly don't know, this was just a quick hack this morning while I had a hangover :) I think it's good to have the conversation though!

Yes it does. If you did want a generator that didn't yield anything I guess you could write: myEmptyGen = -> yield if false Which is pretty ugly, but it's not something I've needed to do often with generator

CoffeeScript already has an of operator (like js in) and an in operator (array like iteration) neither of which could easily be made to both (I think). So we'd probably need a new name. Once "of" is in V8 we can compile to it
226.
by almost 13y ago
Good idea, I'll see if I can add that. I've almost got yieldfrom working...
227.
by almost 13y ago
Definitely agree with need for iteration syntax and yieldfrom keyword. The iteration syntax will probably have be something different than "for a in b" because that's already used for array-like iteration and adding another c

Go Stripe! Now if you could just start support USD payments for UK merchants (without a US bank account) you'd make me really super happy. Integrating Stripe is a pleasure and if I never have to deal with PayPal ever again that would b

He can type things using dictation and that would presumably let him log into the VM, his problem is that the dictation won't work for the OSX lock screen. The idea probably has some other practical problems though.

Oh wow, Duet (project management app, http://duetapp.com ) is exactly what I've been looking for. This is going to make my life so much easier! I'm buying it right now.

Honestly that sounds like depression as well. I've definitely felt like that in the past but I don't have any answers about why or how to change it. Things do have a tendency to change though.

Best way to quickly make money as a web dev is to be paid to write code :) you could start by making yourself contactable here (there's no email in your profile)

That is a great way to find some extra work but I've found it only works well if you post within a few hours of the thread starting. Watch out for it on the 1st of every month!
