I found the You Don't Know JS series books by Kyle Simpson very helpful.

The last one is for ES6.

I think he meant the Glassdoor rating.


But I think the "favorites" are publicly view-able, isn't it? Is there any way to make them private?


From viewing my profile it appears that they are public. I've never actually used it, just noticed the feature a while back. I've been using Instapaper for ages for my "read later" links.

While not relevant, the yellow color while selecting text makes it unreadable. (Yes, I select/highlight the text that I'm reading.)


IIRC, INTERCAL does implement it.


Can anyone explain what effect

  #define goto
would have? It doesn't looks valid, because if I have

  myLabel:
  /* some code*/
  goto myLabel;
would produce

  myLabel;
Which, as far as I know shouldn't compile because it expects either a normal expression or a definition/declaration and myLabel; doesn't appears to be any of them. (Maybe I'm missing something)


I don't know Clojure (not sure how expressive it is), but for a framework isn't the code too less? I have seen other frameworks, but they are quite large (in terms of LOC.) Is it that they contain more functionality?


The clojure culture tents to build extremly small librarys that are really composable. Look at this video about simplicity (http://skillsmatter.com/podcast/java-jee/radical-simplicity/...) it translates very nicly to the web librarys.

In a nutshell: Make small simple things even if thats ends up beeing a bit more verbose then if you would have built it as one thing. If time shows that a set of librarys works very nicly together then you can write something new that combines these in a nice way.

This is what the Noir does it just pulls together some librarys and delivers them in a nice package.


If Clojure is too concise, you can always write a library to apply a more cumbersome syntax if you'd like.


I'm in my late teens. Makes me feel old too :)
