ECMAScript is going to be updated on an annual basis now, so it is easier to just use the year going forward. Promises and arrow functions are ES2015 features, by the way. Already directly supported in a slight majority of the browsers in u

McDonalds is definitely superior to some of their peers, but I would be surprised if their actions in the US were as good as their actions in Europe. From what I've read, Western European countries have superior standards when it comes

> Actually, it's not McDonalds those people don't like--it's their desperation and urge to be something better than they really are, the fear that people confuse them as with being white trash instead of middle class. This

React itself is just the view. You can replace your template language without redoing everything if you want. Khan Academy, for example, still has some Backbone views that render with React. We also have some Handlebars templates that we ha

I don't know if Facebook has done any formal studies. Here's one way to think about it: if you have a webapp and have state in JS objects that you have to synchronize with the DOM, that generally takes a fair bit of code. React pr

Performance is not the point of React. Predictability is. Bunches of bugs are eliminated and others are easier to find.

The vanilla way tends to result in state spread out throughout your JS and DOM. React UIs act like predictable functions: you describe the UI you want with your current state as the input and React makes the visible UI match that.

I often point people to icepick which is a tiny library for working with immutable data in plain JS objects. It's a nice fit for when Immutable.js is too heavy https://github.com/aearly/icepick

I appreciate the sentiment behind this article because to me not all GMO goods are the same. For example, if a given ingredient is GMO to be Roundup ready, I'm not keen to support that[1]. For others, maybe there isn't enough data

I don't know the answer, but this would be useful in general given that much of ES2015 is supported by Firefox, Chrome and Edge. It's enough that I can imagine having an "evergreen browsers" build and an "everybody

Generator functions do not have total browser support yet. IE11 does not support them. Node 6 is actually the first Node version with total support for them: https://kangax.github.io/compat-table/es6/

I had the top comment on the original post and was critical of Kite's approach. I still think that Jetbrains has proven that you can be very effective locally without consuming your entire machine, because the needs of one project do n

In addition to what the others said, I'll note that PyCharm is already doing these things and there isn't a multi-second lag between hitting a key and seeing the completions. It is also doing type inference. And sure, there's

First of all, this is a cool looking tool. Useful, well-organized, easily-accessed information is always a wonderful thing. I think a model like Dash would work a lot better: Rather than opting in my code to be sent up to Kite's server

How does this compare to Datomic? The model seems similar.

It seems like the complexity of getting around NAT/firewalls is likely to stymie a lot of potential users. Making a cloud service is a bad idea for all kinds of reasons, but it simplifies this important aspect of getting the device up

If only there was a service that offered left padding. That would be huge.

That's certainly reasonable. There are likely similar utilities for other platforms[1]. For people with Macs and iOS devices, TextExpander snippets can be synced across devices so that they're available everywhere. Saved Replies o

On the Mac, a utility like TextExpander is great because it lets you expand abbreviations out and fill in variables along the way.

The iPad Pro is a continued drive toward what the iPad has always been intended to be. It's a touch-centric computer that does away with some of the old interaction patterns and problems of the past (creating new problems all its own ;

I worked at Adobe for a bit over 2 years before joining Khan Academy last year. I left only because KA's mission resonates for me, and wouldn't hesitate to go back to Adobe. I was working with a team of really great people who had

My issue wasn't with the idea of Feathers being an alternative to Meteor... it was with the original title which made it sound as if Meteor wasn't open source. It wasn't even a defense of Meteor, just a clarification of the t

by dangoor 11y ago
The title (which is not the title of the original article) makes it sound as if Meteor is not open source. Meteor is open source, and MIT-licensed at that.

I also find "content" to be a useful shorthand for things like podcasts and videos which can't be lumped in with "writing".

Sure, but the React homepage isn't static content... it has a code editor on it so that you can try out React right there on the page. That seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to want on the homepage of a JS library.
