Yeah, the JS world currently is very pro-modularization, but I already saw some discussions on Twitter from the React/Flux people how that creates too big barrier of entry for the newcomers. One of the things that draw people to Angula

Someone should make an opinionated, batteries-included JS/TS framework like Elm, based on TS, React, Flux.

can you link to any such research? that's a topic I'd love to read more about, but don't know where to start even. thx!

OK, this looked rather scary and also rather unbelievable so I did a quick research and unsurprisingly it turned out this is blown way out of proportion (if not downright wrong). The article claims DiagTrack collects "your name, email

Never mind the product, look at that list of React components ( https://github.com/Automattic/wp-calypso/tree/master/client/... )! Any chance this will become a separate framework?

I think not, but Meteor or Keystone.js might get there some day.

Possibly decorators proposed for ES7 would be a solution here? Babel and TypeScript already support them. By the way, TypeScript recently (in nightly) gained support for JSX, so we can now have all of this ES6 stuff + types on top of it.

When I was using Angular I thought doing something like setTimeout(function() { $scope.$digest(); }, 0); was an ugly hack and a sign of angular's leaky abstractionism showing up. Is this considered a good practice now (or always

Some good stuff there, but I thought "don't do any heavy processing in consumer-facing node.js instance" was part of Node's 101.

I'm full of ambivalent feelings towards Syriza, on one hand they are (were) a nice breath of fresh air, a promise of some positive change, on the other: they turned out to be kinda arrogant, kinda short-sighted and pretty bad at diplom

I think most common way of thinking about Marx' work today is that he was often right in describing what's wrong with the capitalism, but he was mostly wrong at the solutions. Marx' apologists point out, not without a reason,

I remember that some time ago many people were wondering what's the point of Medium, how they're gonna monetize on it, etc. and I think the answer is perfectly clear nowadays - they want to be a youtube of written content. Just as

More and more languages have that now (F#, Ceylon, Haxe,...), I wonder how well it works in practice, especially in terms of: - libraries availability - code size and speed - debugging capabilities - ...and interoperability with JS (I recal

Yes, but let's admit it, the presence of classes will inevitably lead to their ever-presence, if only for the fact that they are what most people coming from other languages are used to.

Given the discussion here, it seems there's a clear need for a text-editor that's cross-platform, fast (like ST, unlike Atom), open-source (like Atom, unlike ST), very configurable (like Atom and ST), easily extensible (like Atom)

Don't want to come off overly bitter, it's certainly interesting, but I'd like to see some practical uses of this, besides reimplementation of map() and other "low-level" functions...

Say you have a function that can operate on various types, for example you'd have a function in JS like: function addKey(input, key, value) { input[key] = value; return input; } this will work on either Objects or on an Array. B
