PSeitz··on Imba – A new programming language for the web
I usually don't like the javascript transpiler languages, but this one seems really decent. The classes are even more powerful than those in ES6
PSeitz··on Ferrolic
This first urge is to build an AI around this, because it seems to be alive. But it's too expensive as a gadget.

PSeitz··on Stop pushing the web forward
>But why do web developers want navigation transitions? In order to emulate native apps, of course.

You got this one quite wrong. It's not about emulation, it's the feature. Reducing the perceived delay with an animation. There is nothing wrong with an improved webpage experience ...

PSeitz··on Stop pushing the web forward
> Quick, name all the new features browsers shipped in 2015! You see? I don't know all features shipped of any year, so I guess this point is invalid. I don't see anything bad in moving forward, when the things are well thought. And most are imho.

Do one thing and do it well

Ah okay now I get it, so it's comparable to bash or zsh

Hi, can you tell how it competes to cmder and iterm? I use these currently in windows and osx

Japan already does this (yes I mean the whole country)
PSeitz··on React Native: Initial Thoughts
Every language hat it pros and cons. Overall we could do much worse than JavaScript.
PSeitz··on React Native: Initial Thoughts
I agree, imho there isn't any decalarative and powerful way to build UIs as AutoLayout.
PSeitz··on React Native is now open source
Can someone point me to the added value by react native? Why so much hype? I just don't see it.
PSeitz··on React Native is now open source
I would say this is more dead-end than native iOS.
PSeitz··on Sublime Text 3 Build 3080
Atom is slow and will stay slow, due to the architectural choice. DOM rendering is too complex to become blazingly fast.
PSeitz··on Sublime Text 3 Build 3080
I'm reliefed that development progressed again this year. You don't want to invest time on a dead editor.
PSeitz··on I Hate the News (2006)

They all use Sphinx for speech recognition under the hood, which sadly works very poor for me.
PSeitz··on I signed up to write apps for my Amazon Echo, Amazon sent me an NDA
I don't think this is too bad until the official release. Amazon probably doesn't want public discussions about unfinished products.
PSeitz··on Node.js module performance
Since you wouldn't use something like this it in practice, it's hard to extrapolate the results to a real scenario.
PSeitz··on Node.js module performance
Calling prototype functions directly from the constructor function instead on the objects doesn't make much sense. So I'm not sure how to value the results.
PSeitz··on “Implement text editor DOM updates manually instead of via React”
Yes, the attribute selector could be slow and/or the non-opaque drawing, I guess.
PSeitz··on “Implement text editor DOM updates manually instead of via React”
That killed my facebook tab
PSeitz··on “Implement text editor DOM updates manually instead of via React”
So is it fast now? I doubt that Atom will ever expect my performance needs, but will give it a try.
PSeitz··on Residents in faster places tend to report feeling somewhat happier
Therefore I wrote "become happier"
