proposal-decorators VS fresh

Because many rules are common to many attributes (the coerceType operation is defined by WebIDL, or using similar rules, and the HTML specification defines a handful of microsyntaxes for the parseValue and stringifyValue operations), those could be packaged up in a helper library. And with decorators coming to ECMAScript (and already available in TypeScript), those could be greatly simplified:

Decorators are currently not a part of the standard JavaScript language. They are still being discussed in tc39 and have reached proposal stage 3. This means the spec has more or less stabilized and we can use them but they would be transplied before being run in the browser. This would be done via babel or tsc for most users

JavaScript was created a long time ago, and at the time of its inception, the authors decided not to use affirmative prefixes for boolean names. Now, they do their best by continuing to follow their convention, even if it goes against the community's opinion. Even if the authors wanted to introduce new naming conventions in the specification, they could not do it, at least not coherently. Old code cannot be renamed because JavaScript must remain backward-compatible. And starting to write new code using new approaches is not a great idea either, as there would be two ways to do the same thing, which is also undesirable.

2016-07 – Stage 2. After the decorators proposal reached stage 2, its API began to undergo significant changes. Furthermore, at one point the proposal was referred to as "ESnext class features for JavaScript." During its development, there were numerous ideas about how decorators could be structured. To get a comprehensive view of the entire history of changes, I recommend reviewing the commits in the proposal's repository. Here is an example of what the decorators API used to look like:

The example you've given isn't valid JavaScript, JS doesn't have decorators. (Although there is a stage 3 tc39 for it, afaik no browser has implemented it)

There was a decorators issue brought up in the meeting (issue 508) and decorators metadata, as noted in the article, is now at stage 3. So there's still active work being done on decorators. If I had to guess, I'd say they'd be a likely candidate for ES2024.

As per the proposal, decorators can be used with Classes and their elements such as fields, methods, and accessors. To leverage this feature, we need to ensure that our resolvers provider is an instance of a Class. Therefore, we will modify the code in src/api/users/users-resolvers.js to the following:

The modern version of decorators, which will be officially rolled out in TypeScript 5.0, no longer requires a compiler flag and follows the official ECMAScript Stage-3 proposal. Alongside a stable implementation that follows ECMAScript standards, decorators now work seamlessly with the TypeScript type system, enabling more enhanced functionality than the original version.

100% this. Going in depth of libraries will make you so much better developer than learning newest and coolest frameworks in JS ecosystem. Learn to create your own React, Promises, or anything you like in JS. It will give you immense perspective about these libraries. Once you start understanding them you will feel like they are not that complex and you can do it too. Go read TC39 proposals and issues people point out in them. You will see how JS is borrowing features from other languages.

The actual proposal gives the "@reactive" decorator as the first example, which just so happens is the only decorator that I use in my library with TypeScript's legacy decorator option. Was so happy to see they recognize this use case! https://github.com/tc39/proposal-decorators

Deno: Deno with one of it's frameworks (like Fresh

The road to Fresh 2.0 (https://github.com/denoland/fresh/issues/2363) by Marvin Hagemeister Can't wait for seeing the end of the road! All in all great changes ahead.

Because I have secret magical powers that you probably don't, it's basically free for me. Here's the breakdown though:

The application server uses Deno and Fresh (https://fresh.deno.dev) and requires a shared-1x CPU at 512 MB of ram. That's $3.19 per month as-is. It also uses 2GB of disk volume, which would cost $0.30 per month.

As far as post generation goes: when I first set it up it used GPT-3.5 Turbo to generate prose. That cost me rounding error per month (maybe like $0.05?). At some point I upgraded it to GPT-4 Turbo for free-because-I-got-OpenAI-credits-on-the-drama-day reasons. The prose level increase wasn't significant.

With the GPU it has now, a cold load of the model and prose generation run takes about 1.5 minutes. If I didn't have reasons to keep that machine pinned to a GPU (involving other ridiculous ventures), it would probably cost about 5 minutes per day (increased the time to make the math easier) of GPU time with a 40 GB volume (I now use Nous Hermes Mixtral at Q5_K_M precision, so about 32 GB of weights), so something like $6 per month for the volume and 2.5 hours of GPU time, or about $6.25 per month on an L40s.

In total it's probably something like $15.75 per month. That's a fair bit on paper, but I have certain arrangements that make it significantly less cheap for me. I could re-architect Arsène to not have to be online 24/7, but it's frankly not worth it when the big cost is the GPU time and weights volume. I don't know of a way to make that better without sacrificing model quality more than I have to.

For a shitpost though, I think it'd totally worth it to pay that much. It's kinda hilarious and I feel like it makes for a decent display of how bad things could get if we go full "AI replaces writers" like some people seem to want for some reason I can't even begin to understand.

I still think it's funny that I have to explicitly tell people to not take financial advice from it, because if I didn't then they will.

Deno has also created a Next.js competitor, Fresh. I found it a few weeks ago and am starting to go through the docs, looks like a good overall concept. https://fresh.deno.dev/

https://fresh.deno.dev/ - Fresh embraces the tried and true design of server side rendering and progressive enhancement on the client side.

Along the way, I not only got the oppurtunity to revise old concepts that had blurred in my memory, but also learnt about new technologies like Fresh.js, a framework from Deno (a js runtime engine) that uses Preact, a React Routing library and used Chakra UI for the first time.

A whole project might be released as a server or framework. Frameworks like fresh, and astro) both have had things deep within them that I've wanted to reuse, within fresh it's the esbuild configuration, and islands functionality, and within astro it's the rendering of astro files themselves.

The Fresh framework by Deno cited an improved developer experience due to tighter feedback loops.
