They dropped the "v" from the version name. Yeah, a lot of companies won't touch non-LTS Node though, so a lot of users won't use async/await until later this year when the next LTS is released (Oct 2017).

Node 8 is the planned LTS release for later this year. Notably, it brings async/await syntax to vanilla JS. This new feature complements callbacks and largely replaces how Promises are currently consumed (opting for sequential-like exe

One can go on a plant-based diet for health benefits alone with complete disregard for environmental sustainability, and by the same token one can live an ethical life without regard for environmental sustainability. I'm still confused

How do you argue that an environmentally sustainable diet is important to someone that has no concern for environmental sustainability, nor any interest in such things? Also, why do you assume highly intelligent people are predisposed to ca

My argument is Google took an alternative road here, like they did with SPDY and HTTP/2 development -- they developed an open standard and threw their weight behind it. I don't see how AMP is a walled garden since any and all othe

How is this a dark pattern? Sites opt into it, users get a streamlined interface for content consumption, everybody wins. The only losers in this are those seeking to "curate" the user experience (UX) on their sites, and personall

It seems to me that only iOS users are complaining -- as an Android user I am blown away by how readable AMP pages are. I can just get to the page, read it, and then leave. There's no futzing around with: * long scrolling down "th
