Heya! This thread is going to be a mini-review of the @Surface Go for development purposes. #nodejs #javascript
The Surface Go is a 400 gram Surface device with a 64 bit Intel CPU, and Windows 10.
TLDR: I'm VERY happy. 😊

Here is my lovely website! csclub.co #madewithbulma
My needs are simple while choosing #CSS framework:
No #JavaSript because I don't mind writing in #JS for the things I need.
I came across Skeleton (getskeleton.com) when I was looking for CSS #Framework, which was not included JS.
I used to like #Skeleton by @dhg, it's true that it is dead simple #responsive #boilerplate. Skeleton is truly #mobile-first. Not only in terms of mobile web experience but also the code is written in CSS.

#MagicLeap One hardcore engineer review-preview

- Meshing + tracking is great, do _not_ need to please it
- Very cool to see the virtual world clipped by real!
- World-aware content is the killer feature, the tech nailed it
- World mesh persists
- Great suspend/resume
1/
- Lumin runtime + Lumin SDK immersive was a great technical direction
- Controller tracking is surprisingly good 6DOF, in or out of view
- Hands tracking is fast
- Opacity is a total NON-issue, not even top 10
- At one point I thought my wall had a hole in it
2/
- Surround audio is surprisingly great, no headphones needed
- FOV is a little annoying at first, but you don't notice after a while
- Clip planes are too close
- No pixels, feels higher res than Vive despite FOV
- You can see a bit of prisming, but aesthetic feels right

This just reoccured to me for the nth time, but I really wish browsers would just pass along the layout engines own cached values with Scroll/Resize events, like: scrollPosition[x,y], document[w,h], window[w,h] /cc @ietf @w3c @csswg @webkit @mozilla @MicrosoftEdge
...heck, even just a delta[x,y] would be an improvement.

it would make things like parallaxers & scroll position based triggers so much smoother (like at least 2x instantly), since we wouldn't be causing thrashing when we attempt to re-measure these values every 16ms (or sooner)
ultimately, I'd love to see a mechanism for subscribing to high-frequency property value updates. so that we don't need to request measurements for certain element properties in tight loops. but rather, could just receive them in a callback

A function that produces a scribble.
#generative #code #javascript
So many of my sketches begin with the same function: producing a uniform distribution of values along an array, between [0..1] range. Here's how it looks in JavaScript.

I'm calling it "arcs" (for arc lengths) but perhaps there is a proper name for this sort of thing?
I use this for all sorts of things, like generating an N-sided polygon:

🙋Well Actually!🙋

All of Office 365 is (almost finished) being completely rewritten in this little scripting language called #JavaScript.

And Skype
And Microsoft Teams
And @Code
And all of @MSEdgeDev Debug Protocol (instead of C++)

nbd
Also,

C++ is RFCs for adopting JavaScript's module system because it's so damn good for static analysis. 😍🔥😍🔥

cc @jfbastien please make me look stupid if I'm wrong
And in case you were wondering. This is the goal and beauty. (At least the pieces I can talk about 😏)

Inspired by @patio11 @RachelTobac @HydeNS33k @holman @sehurlburt here is a list "Quick Things Many People Find Too Obvious To Have Told You Already" aka "Things I wish someone had told me earlier"
I've often heard that #DevOps is all about #empathy and I agree.

As an operations person, the most helpful empathetic developers I ever saw were the ones that were told: "20% of your bonus depends on a rating of you from the Operations people"
I didn't believe this for a long time but you can 100% start a blog, write interesting posts and get people to pay you money to tell you more about what's in those blog posts.

Put another way: there are videos of people putting together Duplo on YouTube with MILLIONS of views.

Hyperapp 2.0 is coming! Unwired actions, effects as data, built-in dynamic import support, new subscriptions API, middleware and few more. github.com/hyperapp/hyper… #javascript #hyperapp
Let's break this down. "Unwired actions" is just a fancy name for what really is a profound change in the actions API.
In HA 1.0 you create an object with functions (actions), pass it to the app() call, then HA traverses the object and creates a new function for each action with "special" logic that knows how to update the global state and redraw your view.

this, still the best book on writing a compiler. Though, not as clear and broad as i thought.
there are thievery pdf versions online, but all code/formula are screwed. You better buy the real thing.

Ejecting react-create-app shows just how horribly and hoplessly complicated #Javascript infrastructure has become
I mean, besides the sheer number of moving parts, a third of configuration is about fighting bugs and behaviour in another third
Literally half of the code is "why the EFF isn't this default behaviour?"
