    My name's Trinidad, I'm with UPS. And I've been trying to do a delivery here, uh, since Friday and no one's picked up, or answered the door bell. It’s Tasmanian Syrup, on dry ice…

    I’ve been a remote engineer for over a decade, but only recently switched to a hybrid schedule on Tuesdays and Thursdays. IMO, these two days are effectively useless for any kind o…

    Huh wow! I did not know that! I think TypeScript always kept this hidden from me, but it makes sense. Another perk of `await` is that it collapses all promises into their final val…

    I’ve seen this comparison to async/await a few times and I’m not sure how accurate it actually is. It’s true that async functions can be polyfilled via generators, but from what I …

    It’s a great question, and for the folks who knows the answer of why generators misunderstood, they surely discovered this feature in the most unpleasant circumstances. Generators …

    Controversial but brave take: I think adding this to JavaScript is a bad idea. It’s not that observables are inherently bad. It’s just that they produce some of the least intuitive…

    Seconding for for ADHD and narcolepsy. I had a sleep study done a few years back that came up borderline positive. Doctor had me try a few meds out but the one that really stuck wa…

    I’ve managed several open source projects through their transition from CommonJS to ES modules and the least interesting part was the server-side of the equation. More often, the m…

    I think React really was revolutionary when your choices were jQuery, Backbone, or even Angular 1. I remember trying to convince my team that React was the next best thing when it …

    This is very clever! I found out about the canvas composite modes far too late in an animated ASCII art project. IMO, the canvas APIs are a little too esoteric for their own good. …

    The rumors are true! Luxury housing is in development, and it’s taking place in Hell’s most gentrified neighborhood. Sources close to the project are calling it ES Modules, and eve…

    Show HN: Finally, a Simple TypeScript ESM Packager

    Hey HN! This post isn't as big as some others, but I'd like to share my tools for working with TypeScript and NPM. If you've ever published a TypeScript library to NPM, you're prob…

    Hello Hacker News! Asciify’s origin story begins with my attempts to use SVG’s more esoteric features like lighting effects and animations. If you’ve ever tried to make an animated…

    Fresh looks seriously cool! I'm especially fond of the plugins concept for bringing in compiled assets like Markdown and SCSS. And Getting started with a `deno run` command is very…

    Disclosure: I maintain an open source web component library. This is a strange take on what I think the author is fighting against: a less open web platform. What confuses me is ho…

    I really wish people would find true enlightenment. It's obvious a turtle in space wouldn't need anything underneath -- because turtles swim!

    I think what's more confusing than ASI are the mental gymnastics developers go through to justify typing semicolons daily, rather than installing a linter once, or reading the ASI …
