Re: Better Know A Ruby Thing #6: Methods and Access Control (part 1) – Noel Rappin Writes Here

It might be worth suggesting readers use `__send__` instead of `send`. I believe `__send__` is the recommended approach these days. It was added since `#send` is already a common enough method name that classes would need to use that method in their own domains. (`Mailer#send`, `Message#send`, etc)

It also has the nice side effect of being awkward enough to look at that it calls attention to "hey we're doing maybe a naughty thing".

Ah, yep. Makes sense. Apologies for the pedantry. I find a lot of folks over-export because they don’t fully comprehend what it actually does. So I’m sensitive to examples that demonstrate that. 😅

The DUMP_PID didn’t actually need exported, right? Looks like it was only used in the running shell?

Does apple have a definitive page dedicated to explaining their format and restrictions? Where would one refer people who are interested in complying with the proper format?

Re: Hands-on: Level Lock easily converts deadbolts into HomeKit smart locks [Video]

Love the idea of this lock. Seems like a great addition for secondary doors? (garage access door, for instance?)

I'm curious about the Yale Assure lock mentioned. I presently have the Yale Nest lock (with Starling Home Hub for HomeKit compatibility) but would prefer to move my nest hardware to be native homekit, as much as possible. However, I've heard mixed reviews on the Assure lock. It seems to be essentially the same hardware. Does anyone have experience with it? I've heard the HomeKit/wifi module goes bad occasionally and needs to be replaced (typically at a cost). It also seems that the Assure lock doesn't support scheduling of guest access as is possible within the Nest app.

Worth switching from Yale Nest to Yale Assure to move more natively HomeKit (and have one less Google device in the house?)

Agree. Regardless of the skill of the devs or the parsers chosen, functions simply aren’t part of the JSON spec. So a response that is wrapped in a function isn’t JSON, by definition.

Re: Experiment 01 — Smooth Scrolling

jasonkarns — Thu, 06 Sep 2018 10:19:04 -0000

I prefer the new scrolling, however I rarely scroll through the list of articles. I much prefer to start at an article and progress through them that way. So while I do prefer the new smooth scrolling, I don't think it will impact my day-to-day much.

Though when I _do_ use the "today" view, in the old format I was constantly afraid of accidentally marking a bunch of articles as read. I would guess that the new scrolling format should make that harder to do accidentally? (I hope)

It seems a lot of people _want_ to mark articles as read in the today view. I'm throwing my vote _against_ that. For my workflow, I vastly prefer to ruthlessly prune the articles to which I'm subscribed, such that I actually read the ones to which I'm subscribed. So I rarely want to mark an article as read without actually viewing it. (Hence my annoyance with the old paged format where I'd frequently mark articles read by accident.)

Any reason why you wouldn't just clone the gist using git, instead of the gist-api/curl/jq hackery?

The clone URL for a gist is just: https://gist.github.com/<gist_id>.git

Re: How to write async await without try-catch blocks in Javascript

jasonkarns — Wed, 01 Nov 2017 11:41:31 -0000

Could either use bluebird's filtered catch (assuming the providers expose their error types) or, intersperse `.catchThrow` at every step. Both of these options, IMO, are cleaner than forcing async/await here which is not adding any value other than disconnecting an inherently dependent chain of actions. The disconnection of the dependencies is harmful here and introduces the workaround. A simple promise chain makes the inherent dependency chain _explicit_ and clean, IMO.

:+1: final comparison with npm5 and common cache cleans:

nocache: (unsure if these are comparable because screenshots do not indicate whether the relevant lockfiles existed or not)

with cache + lockfile:
npm5 - 5s
yarn - 1s

Re: Migrating towards Yarn and Webpack

Wait, why are you only cleaning npm's cache but not yarn's?

Nice, thanks. Might be worth updating the post with this info. As it stands, it feels a bit like a strawman post given a publish date of Oct 4.
