NPM themselves recently launched a new package called npx [0] which will download and execute packages directly from the registry if you don't already have them installed. So if you make a simple typo like this: npx crossenv fo

Surprising given that Slack's performance is something people regularly complain about

At least there wouldn't be a crosswind

Not just the 80s, until at least 2000 and probably a lot longer

You did a great job with this, I started something really similar about 6 months ago because I wanted to port SabreDAV to js (I didn't quite get to the stage of self hosting PHP parser) but eventually came to the same conclusions, even

Guessing you got downvoted because it's not really relevant - live editable code is nice for docs but doesn't explain why a property is poorly named.

Yeah probably, but it's just an example

It would be nice to be able to use the annotations directly, we support this in flow-runtime[0] but I think it would be fairly straightforward to support in TypeScript too, It looks like this: import t from 'flow-runtime';

Sometimes legitimate accounts trip a spam filter and get shadow banned, if you go directly to the comment's page (click the time link) there's a `vouch` link you can click to vouch for that person and restore their account.

This is one of those occasions where evidence and material facts are irrelevant, what actually matters is how people feel about using Google products. Is the average developer going to feel confident about recommending a Google service to

by phpnode 9y ago
Marketing is all about confidence, regardless of the facts the public perception is that google shuts down services with wild abandon, that is a perception google needs to work to fix and your response merely confirms it

Nope, it's supported in the Harmony branch, which is still under development

The left has an unfortunate willingness to expend more energy on fighting each other than the people that they truly oppose.

Awesome work! Are there plans to incorporate Flow definitions as an alternative to the __assumeDataProperty helpers? Edit: Looks like this is targeting compiler output, so Flow types would typically be gone by that stage. Integration with F

Yes, as of about 25 mins ago - https://github.com/gajus/prepack-webpack-plugin

There's a fair bit of work in this area that leverages Flow type syntax, e.g: - https://github.com/gcanti/tcomb - https://github.com/gcanti/io-ts (for typescript) - https://github.

I can't comment on the specific details, I've never used EFL, but in general, when encountering problems with open source software you can do one of two things: 1. Write a long and angry rant about how terrible the software is on

EFL is open source software, BSD licenced. The original author of the comment is not a customer. It's some uninformed person trashing the good work someone has made available to them for free. This attitude makes me want to stop writin

The responses in that thread give me a headache, has the daily wtf forum always been such a wasteland? One of the replies is "someone posted your software to the daily wtf so there MUST be a problem with your software, you should just

Your comments have all the empathy of someone who has zero understanding of schizophrenia.
