    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…

    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 buil…

    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 bet…

    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 …

    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 …

    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 (…

    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 s…

    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 pat…

    > Why not be brave about it and use date-based numberings Like IntelliJ IDEA? The version I'm running right now is 2016.3.1

    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 fro…

    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 hate…

    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…

    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 …

    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 …
