   Apparently JMESPath is a better JSONPath/dot-notation alternative for querying JSON, while jq and jl are full-featured fully functional programming languages that happen to use JSON as their underlying data type. I had never heard of j

   Yeah, you're right. Not beautiful and prevents chaining. But works like a charm, don't you think? Chaining functions is for functional people. Go is proudly imperative.

   Actually, the analogies help prove the wrongness of the underlying point, as you noted.

    In Go there are two ways you can handle wrong things happening: - return an error - panic What is the recommended, best, pretty, beautiful way? Return an error. Nobody uses panic. Javascript Promises are equivalent to that. If you

    I don't agree. Promises are a solution to the asynchronous callback world, not a dream spec someone came up with. 1. Eager, not lazy: Why is lazy better? Sometimes I want eager, I use promises. Sometimes I want lazy, I use a promise ge

    MobX is horribly opinionated, a monstruous abstraction of spaghetti, and you're saying Promises limit it?

    I can't see inside, but I can imagine it is teaching people how to use Webpack 4, meaning it will have to be rewritten from scratch in two months, when Webpack 5 is launched (with many nice features, indeed!).

    So you're reasoning about the invented results of an imaginative survey and reaching conclusions from that, then promulgating them with total confidence?

    This seems like a way to incentivize people to replace use of cash with use of bank accounts, thus enabling the State and the IRS to better control people lives.

    I don't know how it is supposed to work: https://screenshots.firefox.com/43Qs5xpvJ3Jm1oHi/date-format... Why are there two different fields? I imagined only one would do the job.

    Amazing. I initially didn't think it would be as powerful as jq. I've seen many people claiming to be doing "jq in Javascript", but they were only implementing the path searching part. Yours is truly amazing, it implemen

    In fact there are other use cases, for example: Trello and its copies. In this case no standard could have predicted that Trello would raise,thus there would be no standard for it. There are probably many other examples of something that ca
