Also, for the macOS users, there's a great emoji picker interface: cmd+ctrl+space brings up a very similar-sounding menu where you can search by typing, or scroll through and click the one you want.
If anyone is interested in a similar idea, but using javascript (or React), this reminded me of a project I heard of a while ago: https://github.com/parro-it/libui-node. It's built on top of…
I'm mildly comfortable with clojure, but haven't used it in a number of years. The code linked here looked pretty typical to me; could you possibly elaborate on the differences between this and some more modern clojure,…
Here's an example of why it's useful for me to see articles like this on HN. I'm an engineering manager, and someone on my team recently joined who wasn't very familiar with these more functional styles. I offered to…
And, when you compile it to JavaScript, you can choose the target language level. So, you could write Typescript and have it compile such that in essence, all it does is strip out the type annotations.
Same. I evangelize TypeScript whenever I can. I don't think I'll ever be as efficient in JavaScript as I am in TypeScript, now that I've tried it. Granted, it has its quirks, but (especially when writing React) it's…
There's also React Native, which can work on macOS (https://github.com/ptmt/react-native-macos). I'm not sure about other operating systems, though.
+1 for typestyle. My team and I have been using it for the past few weeks in trying to clean up a rather monolithic css project, and it's been really cool to work with.
My experience with kotlin so far has been great. I've used it in personal projects, and am in the process of converting some microservices at work to it from java (the interop is seamless, so I'm able to do it…
FWIW, Typescript also has async/await, as of 2.1 (in reference to the Alternative section in your README).
Aside from the live reloading and being able to write in javascript as opposed to Swift/Java, the development paradigms of React is just better, IMO. The component-based design patterns and event-dispatching-based…

I've been using Google Play Music since it launched, and I'm very happy with the service. It works very well on web/Android/iOS, and there's rarely anything that I find missing from its catalog. And, for the rare times…
I've had `jj` bound to ESC for several years now, and I know lots of people who use `jk` or `fj` too. Hitting `jj` is super quick and barely requires movement, but I've always hated the small delay after typing a `j`…
Last weekend my wife and I wanted to watch the movie Goat. It was pretty recently in theaters, so we didn't expect it to be on Netflix. We searched HBO Now, Hulu, Starz, and all of the other video streaming services…

I forget the second half of the line, but one of my high school English teachers would always say "being is bad, ...", meaning there's rarely ever a time when you'd want to use it over some other way of saying it. I…
I've been meaning to watch this show, but haven't yet gotten around to it. But, having just watched the title song video, I absolutely agree with the music aspect. I just recently saw the movie It Follows an…
I thought that at first too about infixes being better (I've only been using Clojure for a few months), but I'm beginning to find the opposite. The only times when I miss an infix syntax is when doing math 1 + (2 * 10)…
