Janoff: What if I live in Antarctica?
Ville: Before i went back to school for programming, i was considering signing up to go to antarctica
Kment: Gilgameshkun: then everything would be white I’m afraid
Lamoreaux: I think i would have been able to do it, since at the time i was already a technician at a research lab, and it seems like thats what most of the jobs were there.
Riser: Well, not most, but a lot.
Kment: Tcsc: do you regret it?
Torruellas: Gilgameshkun I feel for you then man
Kment: Tcsc: yeah I wouldn’t either
Maki: I hadnt thought about it in like a year
Ansara: Anyway, I’m not in Antarctica. I just might as well be. :3
Kment: Enmon: I can’t remember who with but I was in a conversation that talked about how all the approaches to building JS were ridiculous, but it was referring to browserify, npm, bower, grunt, gulp, etc etc. Webpack I think kills it
Hric: Kment: and you’re forgetting a few
Killilea: Somewhere orbiting the sun.
Herek: Javascript is accelerating more and more
Dybala: So different tools gets old really really fast
Ginnetti: In the redux docs, this https://dpaste.de/yVPG is one of the ‘seven middlewares’ presented. where is the function ‘cancel’ returned to if this is a middleware? also, is setTimeout async?
Henandez: It is creating a project with grunt, then migrate it to gulp and now webpack. In 2016 I will probably migrate it to something else
Crimes: Webpack is the first time i’ve been happy with my build system, though
Kment: Enmon: eventually there will be a justfkndoit and everything you want will happen
Weinberger: Gulp was a slightly better grunt, and webpack is significantly better than either imo
Kment: Including removing all references in the current project to other build systems 😛
Kirsten: Heh you could totally do that
Weisenstein: Hey you have an .eslintrc, well then we’ll lint your code!, etc.
Smigel: Use some regex to tell what test framework you’re using, etc.
Schwertfeger: What’s the standard way to retrieve an object’s constructor?
Kment: It’s not on the prototype chain?
Kment: That’s ES5 Schaetzle ?
Billingham: Or I think it’s always been there; it’s on the prototype
Troisi: B function Foo{}; new Foo.constructor === Foo
Sabala: Function Foo{}; new Foo.constructor === Foo
Wakley: Schaetzle: boolean true
Kment: If you install webpack globally do you really need to include it in your dev dependencies?
Schimming: If you want your project to be portable and installable with “npm install”
Hodgkin: Someone know a good router api for node ?
Schimming: Jacob___ have you tried the express router?
Schimming: Probably the goto one
Goldwyn: Schaetzle: Agree. Webpack managed to reduce lot of headache and configuration
Minjarez: Gilgameshkun: not all objects have constructors. And even objects that have been constructed by a constructor function aren’t guaranteed to have a .constructor property. Why do you want to retrieve an object’s constructor anyway?
Kment: After watching that egghead video on webpack I now feel like neo when he says “I know kung fu”
Lisherness: Typed arrays have constructors, right?
Ryant: Gilgameshkun: they have to be constructed by the constructor functions, they don’t necessarily have a .constructor property
Corwin: Constructor functions and the objects they construct are kind of entirely unrelated anyway
Kment: Dekok: is that because JS isn’t really cl***-based OOP?
Wakley: Gilgameshkun: string ‘Int8Array’
Messier: Kment: pretty much, yes.
Berdy: I stopped looking at ES5 long ago tho
