The most disregarded principle of Software Architecture is extremely simple:
Code that change together should stay together.

Is this still the best (only?) way?
Maybe fetch expert @jaffathecake has a trick...

Ran smaller stuff on @UpCloud for years. Great overall, but today someone bought a small network-layer DDoS.
- They pulled the cable
- Did not say a word about it
- Said I was responsible and that it was preventable
- The support was incoherent and irrational

If you offer public IPv4 addresses for an application-level service, you have the responsibility of the network-layer, either assume responsibility for mitigating DDoS attacks or clearly inform people about this deficiency.

I have no reason to believe this attack was aimed at my service and it may very well have been targeting @UpCloud.

An underrated benefit of writing functional JavaScript is not having to deal with the frustration of mocking in unit tests.

My repos are in captivity at @github and support tickets aren't answered π€
Three credit cards declined, you can't pay, only add a card which works, meaning I can try once a day π€¦ββοΈ

Why don't we have native try-catch-style "filtered catch" for promises in Javascript (bluebirdjs.com/docs/api/catcβ¦)?
I still import Bluebird for this and "join", but the latter is easy in user-land. @domenic @jaffathecake

The biggest web UX improvement right now would be to let browsers take care of this βcan we track you via cookies?β issue β similar to how they already handle privacy-sensitive features such as location data and notifications.

Getting used to ES symbols, I write more data structures like linked lists because they are more intuitive and convenient than an array.

Opinionated take: Class inheritance, getters and setters makes your modules overly complex and hard to debug. Should have complicated syntax to discourage use, ES6 made it too easy.

Could `sum(a, b) => a b` be short for `const sum = (a, b) => a b` in #javascript? Why not?
