I appreciate the response. I was wondering about the lower Mori numbers here because I was sure I'd seen much higher numbers in cljs benchmarks.

I'm a different person but I did use and prefer Stylus for a while. When Stylus was created it was definitely more powerful than Sass. The syntactic flexibility of mixin invocation lets you define your own css properties and override h

Current preferred setup is: - npm for javascript dependencies - vendor dir for sass deps (I've had problems with Bower don't run enough deps to put up with it) - Webpack [1] and some shell scripts for builds. Webpack does all the

Companies usually scale pay based on the cost of living in the city where the worker lives. Tech hubs tend to be high cost of living areas. A $115k job in NYC becomes a $90k job in Omaha based on the premise that it costs 25% more to live i

That's going to depend on your specific set of edit patterns. When I checked a week ago my core set of patterns were there except for C-i/C-o.

If you're interested in FP in javascript, you should check out the relatively new Ramda.js [1]. It switches from the underscore style collection first call pattern to a collection last pattern and automatically curries its functions. T

I'm confident that it will be. I'm in the process of building a component library on React at work and I'm sure there are others doing the same. My biggest question is if and whether all the parochial component systems will s

That's not really doable. I'm building a React based component/widget system for work and assuming all goes well and I can OSS it there's a reasonable chance I'll build out a Material/Paper widget set since I r

Haven't tried it but you can integrate React with pretty much anything. Looking at the Polymer lifecycle methods[1], I'd start by trying a `React.renderComponent` in Polymer's `domReady` callback for an element and then setSt

They're only similar in that they're both for building component based DOM UI. Polymer is tied into the WebComponents standardization effort (also driven by google-related people). Pieces of the DOM are managed by relatively small

I had a similar experience. I thought "eh, why not?" and got a surprising number of high quality leads. I started a remote working contract for a group in London on the 12th and it's been working quite well.

If you arbitrarily reject everything unfamiliar then filter the remainder for stability you wind up with unremarkable stuff that will get the job done. There are better ways to write web apps but you're not going to find them following

Programming requires maintaining focus for long stretches of time and the easiest way to get that focus is to enjoy the activity. As a result, virtually every developer I've met enjoys coding regardless of whether they like their curre

React was the missing link for sophisticated clojurescript web apps. The Clojure community discovered it in December. Expect substantial web apps this year. The largest open sourced example I'm aware of in this new wave of apps is Omch
