  • Fixing for Loops in Go 1.22

    The key is that the scoping happens for each iteration, not around the entire loop. That detail is nonobvious, given how many other languages have gotten it wrong, but I wouldn’t say it’s wild.

    (If you’re curious how Babel deals with the more complicated cases of continue, break, labelled break, and return, try it out at https://babeljs.io/repl.)

    You must have a basic understanding of JavaScript and be familiar with some of the features of ES6, the most recent version of JavaScript, to follow this tutorial. More information is available here if you’re unfamiliar with ES6. If you are more familiar with the older version of JavaScript, you might find the babel REPL more helpful to see how ES6 code is translated.

    The JSX code is far easy to understand, but React, ReactDOM, or browser does not understand it. Babel comes into picture to translate JSX code to equivalent React code.

    If your project uses a bundler like webpack or rollup, then you can use the nullish coalescing operator in your code. But if you are using a browser, then you should use a transpiler like babel to transpile your code to ES5. You can use babel repl to transpile your code.

    > Is it though?

    In my experience it's the buggiest browser out of the big three, and is often missing basic features like e.g.:

    https://caniuse.com/?search=opus

    Supported in Firefox for *12 years* now, in Chrome for 10, still no support in Safari.

    They only "support" Opus audio in their special snowflake '.caf' container, which is super buggy and the last time I checked no open source program could even generate Opus '.caf' files that could be played by Safari on all Apple platforms. I ended up writing a custom converter which takes a standard '.opus' file and remuxes it on-the-fly (I only store '.opus' files on my server) into Safari-compatible '.caf' files, taking special care to massage it so that it avoids all of their demuxer/decoder bugs. You shouldn't have to do this to have cross-browser high quality audio!

    which might be great because you have the choice...

    and you can use open source chromium or brave (like the jvm to run cross platform java) to run web apps seemlessly that need web bluetooth or such but use safari or firefox for personal use if you find them more secure

    I mean using chromium engine as the running environment where chromium only ever runs special trusted web domains and never goes to other "malicious" web domains that may fuck up iOS as Apple claims would be still a secure choice

    like you will not download spyware from Apple Store because you are an adult not because Apple can protect you there
