vmorgulis··on Why I’m thankful for JavaScript fatigue
> I recently built an app prototype in a couple days using nothing but vanilla JS and the DOM. I was literally two days in before I installed a single non-dev dependency. Guess what? It was fine.

IMHO a good strategy to reduce the cognitive load (and limit dependencies).

vmorgulis··on Show HN: LoWe – Extending the functionality of Ubuntu running on Windows 10
> LoWe creates the missing device files (as regular files) under /dev to let them to be opened by the program and have a file descriptor. Later on it intercepts Linux kernel system calls (syscalls) in user mode via ptrace (like strace). When LoWe thinks that she is responsible to handle given syscalls (ioctl, read, write, mmap, etc.) of particular devices identified by file descriptors then it provides her own responses to the syscalls instead of going down to the Windows kernel that has no support for those functions.

Simple and neat idea.

Typescript is a better JS and Swift runs on Linux too.
