Motivation

• expression-oriented programming one of the great advances of FP
• expressions plug together like legos, making more malleable programming experience in-the-small

Examples

Write in an expression-oriented style, scoping variables as locally as possible:

Avaq

const I  = x => x
const K  = x => y => x
const A  = f => x => f (x)
const T  = x => f => f (x)
const W  = f => x => f (x) (x)
const C  = f => y => x => f (x) (y)
const B  = f => g => x => f (g (x))
const S  = f => g => x => f (x) (g (x))
const S_ = f => g => x => f (g (x)) (x)
const S2 = f => g => h => x => f (g (x)) (h (x))

    return [this.x, this.y];

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs

Getting box metrics

• elem.offsetLeft, elem.offsetTop, elem.offsetWidth, elem.offsetHeight, elem.offsetParent

    font-size: 12pt;
    font-family: monospace;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: black;
    cursor: default;
}

io.js - what you need to know

• io is a fork of node v0.12 (the next stable version of node.js, currently unreleased)
• io.js will be totally compatible with node.js
• the people who created io.js are node core contributors who have different ideas on how to run the project
• it is not a zero-sum game. many core contributors will help maintain both node.js and io.js

Give me back my sanity

One of the many things I do for my group at work is to take care of automating as many things as possible. It usually brings me a lot of satisfaction, mostly because I get a kick out of making people's lives easier.

But sometimes, maybe too often, I end up in drawn-out struggles with machines and programs. And sometimes, these struggles bring me to the edge of despair, so much so that I regularly consider living on a computer-less island growing vegetables for a living.

This is the story of how I had to install Pandoc in a CentOS 6 Docker container. But more generally, this is the story of how I think computing is inherently broken, how programmers (myself included) tend to think that their way is the way, how we're ultimately replicating what most of us think is wrong with society, building upon layers and layers of (best-case scenario) obscure and/or weak foundations.

*I would like to extend my gratitude to Google, StackOverflow, GitHub issues but mostly, the people who make the
