rajington··on Show HN: Carbide – A New Programming Environment
https://alpha.trycarbide.com/new is the link to try it out. Not sure why it's getting so much hate, the widgets are just icing on the cake, it's like tonic.dev on steroids. You only need to look at the Python community to see how powerful notebooks can be.
rajington··on Show HN: Auto install npm dependencies as you code
I wonder what https://tonicdev.com/ does.
rajington··on Compile OCaml to JavaScript, use ReactJS, bindings to ReactJS, several examples
That's awesome and great work.

I know it's dumb that the thing holding me back from OCaml is the syntax, but after giving up on an Om project I've come to accept js will always be the greatest common denominator.

rajington··on Compile OCaml to JavaScript, use ReactJS, bindings to ReactJS, several examples
I haven't really gotten into much ML yet, and I'm curious to hear what people knowledgeable with OCaml think about http://facebook.github.io/reason/

The name makes it impossible to research to find any blog posts or anything, but the familiar syntax alone might make it at least a first step for me.

rajington··on Web Programming Is Getting Unnecessarily Complicated
Not everyone is using the latest JS frameworks, and some people eat sous vide grassfed steak.
rajington··on Web Programming Is Getting Unnecessarily Complicated
"Cooking is getting unnecessarily complicated." - Caveman

Compare food nowadays to centuries ago, I'm glad things got unnecessarily complicated.

rajington··on Ask HN: Laptop that doesn't suck
EXACT same thing happened to mine, 3 visits to the Apple Store later until someone finally opened it up completely and dusted the insides. The computer is running like new again. At home dusting without opening it up didn't work.

MAKE SURE THEY DUST THE INSIDES. They do it for free, even if you don't have AppleCare anymore.

rajington··on Pokémon Go similar to game students created at hackathon in 2014
It's also similar to the April Fool's joke Google did earlier that year... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4YMD6xELI_k

aren't smart locks a better solution?

Can you try resizing a window to the full screen and seeing if the dock still reserves pixels? http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/141800/gap-at-the-b...
rajington··on Serverless Architectures by Martin Fowler
I am annoyed by that term too, but "serverless" is what everyone is calling it right now so to get the right readers he had to call it that. He immediately follows a popular recommendation to switch to FaaS (Functions as a Service) and does so for the rest of the article.
rajington··on Flow vs. Typescript: type systems for Javascript
My bad, it's totally mentioned in the next couple of slides, not sure how I missed it the first time around.
rajington··on Flow vs. Typescript: type systems for Javascript
Despite being a fan of Flow, I do think it's prudent for any recent comparison to include SOME features on TypeScript's timeline, including non-nullable types in version 2.

rajington··on Gordon: a tool to create, wire and deploy AWS Lambdas
Messing with Gordon now, but I've messed with nearly every other serverless framework. If you're looking for something express-y then you might like claudia.js's ApiBuilder, but the underlying API Gateway is always the lowest common denominator so this just adds some prettiness on top. https://github.com/claudiajs/claudia
rajington··on Apple might put a GPU right inside the Thunderbolt Display
Don't know much about this guy, but aren't theories against just as theoretical as theories for? I feel eGPUs and things like the Razer Core help solve the mobility/power dilemma.
rajington··on HyperDev – Developer Playground for Full-Stack Web Apps
I know it's down right now but I used this a couple of weeks ago and it was very powerful. Well worth bookmarking and checking out later.
rajington··on Ask HN: Tabs or Spaces?
i write pre-minified js, all in one line.

good stuff! added you to https://github.com/anaibol/awesome-serverless
rajington··on A Docker file for Reason development
Ah, the "Reason, React, Redux, Relay" stack, or "Re: Re: Re: Re:" for short. Facebook is paying homage to the original online social network of e-mail chains. Seriously though, I can't search anything about it.
rajington··on Show HN: BBC Recipe search engine. Open source, super fast
I thought archiving meant it would be no longer on their website, it would be awesome if they just released it all under something like the GPL. Could do some fun machine learning stuff with it...
rajington··on Show HN: Kajero – Interactive JavaScript notebooks
really nice, was just looking at trying to use Jupyter but their JS kernels gave me issues. Being able to use arbitrary packages would be nice, babel transpiling would also be cool.
rajington··on Bublé: a fast, batteries-included ES2015 transpiler
in all seriousness though, if I rely on async/await is kneden/nodent the way to go?
rajington··on Bublé: a fast, batteries-included ES2015 transpiler
My main complaint with bublé is that it wasn't called babybel.
rajington··on Show HN: We Work Contract – London Web contract jobs with day rates
Good advice. It doesn't matter whether it's right, no one wants the headache of lawyers or a name change.

Hi, I work for the TSA, would you like to do QA for us?
rajington··on An opensource alternative for the TSA’s $300k line assistant
I actually have a solution that costs exactly $0.01, per employee. It also works on any platform.
