Please Internet, stop trying to shun and mock JavaScript and instead just write good JavaScript! It is not that hard. Use a cattle prod if your peers need you to.

I wish there were more reasons to design custom WebStreams in typical browser based front end development (SPA). CRUD lacks the intellectual excitement these days. #JavaScript

Love this bit:

“We should be careful both to avoid ‘optimising’ and accelerating the creation of legacy code and to mistake such pessimisation as productivity — especially if we’re doing so at the expense of joy, time and skill.”

To repeat: “at the expense of joy, time and skill”. Hits home that!

TIL that Vim windows can switch to a local (window contained) argument list with :arglocal and switch back to the global list with :argglobal Finally I can use the args list to kind of bookmark buffers when my buffer list gets too large to manage in my short term memory. Arg lists are editable!

Why does every TV or Movie seem to be able to “crack the encryption”? Why even bring encryption into the plot if it was crackable?

Most companies have similar business needs for their software, but not all needs are met equally

IE: Error handling. Critical for biz needs. Yet so many companies I've seen absolutely neglect it. Why? Not enough engineers focusing on that discipline

Get good at that stuff and you'll be unstoppable
For a basic crud app, you have "must haves", "Nice to haves", and "Polish". In each are different skills, like "Data fetching" or "Remote logging". These skills are differently weighted between how often a company does them and how valuable they are for individuals to have as skills on a team.

Don't [...spread] or .split() your strings!

Use Intl.Segmenter API. Available in every JS runtime

For the curious, to do what "newExample" is doing WITHOUT the "using" keyword it would look like "oldExample".

Have I got your attention about Explicit Resource Management in #JavaScript yet?
class Resource { constructor(label) { this.label = label; } [Symbol.dispose]() { throw new Error(`bork ${this.label}`); } } function newExample() { using a = new Resource('A'); using b = new Resource('B'); using c = new Resource('C'); throw new Error('bork'); } function oldExample() { let aError; const a = new Resource('A'); try { let bError; const b = new Resource('B'); try { let cError; const c = new Resource('C'); try { throw new Error('bork'); } catch (error) { cError = error; throw error; } finally { try { c[Symbol.dispose](); } catch (error) { if (cError) throw new SuppressedError(error, cError, 'message'); throw error; } } } catch (error) { bError = error; throw error; } finally { try { b[Symbol.dispose](); } catch (error) { if (bError) throw new SuppressedError(error, bError, 'message'); throw error; } } } catch (error) { aError = error; throw error; } finally { try { a[Symbol.dispose](); } catch (error) { if (aError) throw new SuppressedError(error, aError, 'message'); throw error; } } }

You might know `NaN` means “not a number,” and you might know that not-a-number `NaN` IS a number — but did you know that the not-a-number number `NaN` is not not-a-number?

NaN, the not-a-number number that isn’t NaN
We're pretty aware, generally that JavaScript is weird, but did you know Not-A-Number (NaN) is a type of number? Mat Marquis walks us through why that is and how to deal with NaN well in your codebase...

MDN is good stuff.

If your framework doesn't work with anything on there, that's a bug.

Isn’t it fascinating how the industry jumps at tech like TailWind only to discover that upgrading is a heavy lift. Meanwhile upgrading CSS requires no lift at all.

Today I learned there is a subtle foot-gun when extending ReadableStream. #JavaScript
class AsyncArrowsWork extends ReadableStream { data = 'foobar'; constructor() { super({ start: async (controller) => { controller.enqueue(this.data); // OK controller.close(); }, }); } } class SyncArrowsFail extends ReadableStream { data = 'foobar'; constructor() { super({ start: (controller) => { controller.enqueue(this.data); // Fail controller.close(); }, }); } }
