   It's becoming boring, ladies, we have seen it all before in 1984: The government attempts to control not only the speech and actions, but also the thoughts of its subjects. To entertain unacceptable thoughts is known as crimethink. &qu

   So, the alphabet of Kazakh language has 42 letters, 33 of them are borrowed from Russian language and 9 are unique. The modern Latin alphabet has 26 letters. It's quite unclear how they are going to convert between these 2 very differe

   Golang is really, really easy to learn. And as always the key is practicing. Just pick up some medium size project and start building it. Stack overflow will help with the learning curve. This is how I learned to love Golang having 10+ year

   Well, I am not affiliated with bleve, but actively use it in my project where the data are in BoltDb but index is stored separately in bleve. It's really awesome package.

    During my first visit to the USA, back in 2007, I was shocked at casual drinking and driving habits of my co-workers. They were fine with having 5-6 bottles of beer and a couple of shots and then drop me in the hotel before driving home. Fo

    Levandowski seems like one of those "Hustle" tv show characters who was able to collect money from everyone by using a sophisticated scheme and almost got away with it. Hope he will write a memoir one day called "if I did it&

    Oh, it's barely visible and for some reason it's in the same bucket as C# and Java. That's so lame.

    :) I tried to watch stranger things twice and couldn't have finished it as it feels like very stupid show that tries to play on 80x nostalgia. Master of none I watched twice and think that it's the masterpiece.

    I don't think it's a good solution because it performs the operation manually instead of calling the built-in Math.hypot method. This is the point - "apply" is a widely used technique, at least it used to be on pre-ES6 t

    Just for fun, why not..Let's take a look at the classic one: Math.hypot.apply(null, [1,1,3,3,4]) Try to refactor without using ES6's "spread" feature(Math.hypot(...[1,1,3,3,4]))

    I bet you never developed anything realistic with JS! The close neighbor of "call" called "apply" is a widely used tool.

    >>If the new keyword is not used, "this" will point to the global scope This is entirely incorrect information, consider a simple example: function f(){console.log(this.a);} var o={a:"c"} f.call(o)

    >>this is only used with the new keyword This so not true. "this" is much wider paradigm in JS.

    ES6's arrow function might help to avoid "this" problem in some scenarios, but it does make it any better. Type coercion is a lot more than == vs ===.

    >>Most of the ugly parts involve interacting with the DOM, and the DOM is NOT JavaScript, and Yeah, like dealing with "this" keyword or type coercion in JS is not the ugliest thing ever in the history of Programming language

    Of course people find this interesting, the post has 140 points. I just posted my negative reaction, that's it. This is what people do here in HN all the time :-)

    Yes, of course, but to me this phrase means: "I conducted the experiment and you can reproduce it, but it can run forever and break your stuff". That hardly sounds like an enticing introduction.
