React Patterns - Render callback

FWIW: I (@rondy) am not the creator of the content shared here, which is an excerpt from Edmond Lau's book. I simply copied and pasted it from another location and saved it as a personal note, before it gained popularity on news.ycombinator.com. Unfortunately, I cannot recall the exact origin of the original source, nor was I able to find the author's name, so I am can't provide the appropriate credits.

Yet another tutorial and Cheat sheet to Functional programming

There are many tutorials and articles available online which explain functional programming. Examples show small functions, which are composed into others which again get composed. It is hard to imagine how it would all work, then come the analogies and then the math. While the math is necessary to understand it can be difficult to grasp initially. The analogies on the other hand, (at least for me) are not relatable. Some articles assume the reader knows the different terminologies of FP. Over all I felt it is not inviting to learn.

This introduction is for those who have had a tough time understanding those analogies, taken the plunge to functional programming but still have not been able to swim. This is yet another tutorial on functional programming

Terminology

Functions as first class citizens

Functions are first class means they are just like anyone else, or rather they are not special, they behave the same as say primitives or strings or objects.

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions
