Note that you can have cheap equality detection by using e.g. flags or revision counters and so on (but there are limits due to JavaScript's nature..). The problem is that JavaScript currently doesn't support this properly out of

Hmm, it seems to be written in TypeScript, but the source is only provided in JavaScript.

Some social media sites with karma scores actually encourage one to ask why a post/comment is being downvoted. I guess they're in the minority, though. I don't know the consensus on Hacker News.

The way the market works in Finland is that the seller almost always pays for a real estate agent, mainly to draft contracts, give tours of the property and so on. Negotiation is pretty simple typically, the buyer just makes an offer, I don

If I type 'mplayer ' and press tab in a folder with only one video file, but multiple text files, does this shell autocomplete the media file? It's pretty frustrating that even the most basic stuff like these are not enabled

The question in the article was 'will you please tell me about the best project that you’ve ever create', which excludes most work projects, since work projects are typically not single-developers projects.

Hmm, that's true. The library could monkey patch .push (etc.), but it wouldn't support setting the property directly with [index] (until Object.observe is mainstream enough).

Why do you need a mechanism for that instead of using arrays?

That's a good point. The same issue seems to exist with almost every JavaScript function interface. Whether or not a function is synchronous or asynchronous seems to be an implementation detail (at least in theory), but that fact must

Seems like Mozilla is not following Brendan Eich's plan to differentiate "heavily" on privacy.

You can use libraries instead of frameworks to avoid reimplementing/reinventing functionality.

>In-memory compilation already exists. Well, it seems that it requires quite a lot of code. Perhaps you should publish the gulp wrapper as a Gulp plugin. By the way, does your Gulp wrapper load files from the disk, or are the files given

Good news. Compiler performance is pretty horrible at scale. I hope that they implement in-memory compilation, so that the compiler can work properly with Gulp (which would also increase build times). I also hope that they'll support a

If Brendan Eich wouldn't have rushed the JavaScript design, Netscape would've chosen another language which was already in the works (or complete?). It was apparently similar to PHP, and probably would've been worse than Java
