I see. Still, your approach leaks memory as it maintains references to nodes which may otherwise be GC'able. Have you considered `WeakMap` for caching (where supported)?

Gator .on(x, e1, s1, c1) .on(x, e2, s2, c2) ; Or is chaining desired after partial application (meaning `x` is chained)? var onX = chainFn(Gator.on, x); onX (e1, s1, c1) (e2, s2, c2) ;

Why is there a Gator function when the only interface is `Gator(x).on(e, s, c)` and `Gator(x).off(e, s, c)`? Why not `Gator.on(x, e, s, c)` and rely on the caller to do partial function application (e.g. with `Function.prototype.bind`)? T

I would love to read an article about optimizing for SpiderMonkey, or at least explaining what optimizations SpiderMonkey does differently than V8.

Does display manufacturing really work that way? Can you take an existing screen spec and scale it up?

Odd; I read improper fractions differently. 100 2/3 - One hundred and two-thirds. 102/3 - One hundred two over three.

Reassigning the `exports` variable does not change the return value of `require`. The return value of `require` is `module.exports`, which may be reassigned. Initially, the global `exports` variable is set to the same value as `module.expor

In short, compiled type errors are replaced with `assert(0);` (which doesn't return).

What prevents "new" JavaScript from being compiled like CS is being compiled now?
140.
by strager 14y ago
Indeed, this happens to me too. And I think this is why Mozilla will need to have a very good UI to tell the user how to fix a broken site (or just fix it for them e.g. through a crowd collective).

Yes. Preferences > Under the Hood > Privacy > Content Settings > Plug-ins > Click to play Or you can search for "Flash" or "Click to play" to find the setting.

It does, though not with the same UI as the Java plugin: http://i.imgur.com/xHrRX.png Clicking the puzzle piece shows a menu to "always allow" or to "enable all Flash applets on this page" (and a few other things). I can see a more obtrus

I wasn't saying it's not possible to have autocomplete for dynamic languages. I've used VJET, a pretty good Eclipse plugin for JS development. I was saying that "Even something as Spartan as the Javascript REPL in Chrome" can't do "real" a

> var n = 42; n.[[TAB]] No auto-complete. It's severely limited to only live objects. Which may be an argument for REPL, but it's not an argument for "dynamic languages can have autocomplete".

80% DDG (primary), 10% Google (fallback), 10% specialized search engines (MSDN, AS3, Hoogle, etc.). Typically, for general searches, if DDG doesn't give the results I want, I add !g to my query to search Google. (Usually searching for erro

Not just that; in Chrome 16 (OS X), I can't scale the font up myself like I used to be able to do with the page zoom options. (I could probably define myself a CSS for DDG, though...)

Edit: It seems backticks (``) don't indicate code, so the following is shown as `/ test /`: `/*test*/` (End edit.) I personally prefer something like // In some entry point, sticking DEBUG on the global object or outermost sc

Doesn't work when piping the file to `tar`, though (e.g. `curl http://. . | tar x`). I've thus gotten in the habit of specifying the format I expect.
