random question.. is there a way to debug code in the immediate pane for chrome dev-tools?

Quill

immediate pane?

Zak

12:12

@Vogel612 Is that the "Console" Window?

Vogel612

yea that one...

I don't think I can make wolframalpha accept the madness I just thought out

Quill

uh yeah

head to the sources tab

and click on the left of the line in question

Vogel612

there ain't no such thing as sources when pasting a nested for-loop to console, or is there?

Sam Swift 웃

Can someone help me with this? codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/115997/…

Quill

oh no @Vogel612, you can't debug code like that

Vogel612

12:15

figures...

Quill

actually I think you can

Vogel612

then I may need to make wolfram-alpha accept some crazy stuff..

Quill

in the console, if you make the code log it will have a thing on the right

chillworld

@SamSwift웃 please have some patient

Quill

oh never mind console calls are unique

uh, try injecting the script if you really want to debug

or using an userscript

the easy way to navigate to the code space is to make it console.log because the console will provide a stack location

products.forEach(function(price){sum += price});

Dan Pantry

@Quill ouch

Vogel612

12:20

@Quill no, not that kind of products...

Quill

@DanPantry the real question is: are you assigned to it

Zak

Just saw my Finance Director looking something up on Stack Overflow. Evidently, I'm making some kind of headway here ^^

Dan Pantry

const products = [ /*prices */];
const sum = products.reduce((previous, next) => previous + next)

Vogel612

a good old-fashioned product as in calculus

Quill

oh, that kind of product

Dan Pantry

12:21

@Quill yes

Quill

also we're talking chrome console @DanPantry take your ESMagic6 elsewhere

Zak

@DanPantry Ouch.

That's my Firefox

Dan Pantry

You can search for features here, @Quill. Hint: there's a reason why it is called ES2015.

a lot of features are supported in the browser these days

Quill

12:30

Well it's 2016, I thought they would've scrapped it already

skiwi

So... using arrow syntax might be possible in real aplications if I just tell everyoen to upgrade? :D

Quill

@skiwi don't do iitttt man

lots of browsers dont support it

Dan Pantry

@skiwi Or if you're okay with half of the world not being able to use your app.

Firefox, Edge and Chrome all do

It's just unfortunately mobile browsers lagging behind

Quill

They literally only issued Order 66 for IE8~10 yesterday

Dan Pantry

and IE11 and IE10 which hold not-insignificant amoutns of market share

skiwi

12:31

@DanPantry Aw, that's a bummer :P

Dan Pantry

@Quill the problem is still gonna show up until IE11 is given a coup de gracé, because IE11 doesn't support it either

Do you have a link to the end-of-life announcement? I should circulate it internally

Quill

pinned in the JS room

Dan Pantry

Because one of the requirements for the app I'm working on is IE9 support... :-)

Quill

@skiwi but what you can do is link a compiler to your build stage so you have ES5 compliant code for production and ES6 behind the scenes

Vogel612

hmm that seems more reasonable...

skiwi

12:33

@Quill Yeah, but for simple stuff I think that's an annoying task

Quill

in JavaScript Masterrace, 8 hours ago, by Quill

End of Life notification for IE8~10

@skiwi Yeah, mostly people use it with large amounts of code or node servers

Dan Pantry

@skiwi I use it for nearly every project I do :-)

I mean if it's a very basic script like modifying-a-button basic I'll use ES5

anything more complex than that and I'll use ES6

because "basic" projects usually end up being anything but basic

Quill

the sooner you start using the new syntax the better equipped you are for when it's the standard everywhere

Dan Pantry

@Quill (which won't be for at least another 18 months, to be clear)

Also browsers still don't support all of the features

skiwi

Well, right now I code my userscript stuff in Notepad++, save it, reinstall it in my browser and can test again, I don't see how I can easily change that

Dan Pantry

12:35

V8, for example, still doesn't support ES6 modules or the destructuring assignment

Quill

doesn't node run on V8?

skiwi

Unless maybe I run a watcher and let it compile stuff to a different directory and install from there?

Dan Pantry

@Quill it does. I believe destructuring is avaliable behind a flag, but I might be wrong.

ES6 modules definitely aren't. Babel compiles them down into require calls.

@skiwi That's what I would do

skiwi

I'm not sure if there's that much to gain from ES6 though in this case

Dan Pantry

@skiwi arrow functions, obviously. /s

I'm not even sure how es6 modules are meant to be loaded.

skiwi

Is there any way to "enjoy" coding stuff that requires no brainpower and is not interesting at all, but needed for interesting tasks?

No. that's why it's called boilerplate code

Quill

Dan Pantry

Dan Pantry

@skiwi So, boilerplate :p

ouch

Quill

@DanPantry yes that's actually a part of the australian curriculum

Part of "Australian Identity", I'm not even kidding

Dan Pantry

@skiwi I'd say get an IDE to generate it for you, but, groovy.. :\

I guess you could say groovy ain't so groovy

Quill

you'll summon the wrath of @Phrancis talking like that

Dan Pantry

He'll de-RO me. :(

skiwi

12:46

Well, I'm not so sure how it should be generated, I know it follows a pattern though

Dan Pantry

That wouldn't be very Groovy.

skiwi

Do I really want to code something that generates it though? :P

Dan Pantry

@skiwi I don't know. It's the sort of thing I do to kill time

Though the code I end up writing to save time on writing boilerplate usually takes longer to write than just writing the boilerplate, lol

skiwi

That's the point where you start creating a program to create the program you're creating

Dan Pantry

But I feel smart after writing it and that's what matters.

janos

@SimonForsbergMcFeely it would be better to link to a help center page or FAQ -- something distilled by the community. Otherwise your comment may seem "just your opinion"

Dan Pantry

@janos Well, he does preface the link with "I do not consider" rather than "The community does not consider".

IMO, whether I upvote or not is largely down to how much effort the OP has put into helping people understand their code.

Dan Pantry

When worded like that, I think it's okay if it comes across as @SimonForsbergMcFeely's opinion.

janos

also, I wouldn't greet new users with downvotes. I give downvote later if they ignore the constructive comments

Simon Forsberg McFeely

13:46

@janos Well, it is my vote after all, is it not? I can't force other users to vote in the same way that I do.

Dan Pantry

The purpose of the downvote/upvotes aren't to appear 'nice' to users. They're to remove crap from the front page

(At least in my opinion)

Zak

@DanPantry It's so far been my opinion that removing crap from the front page has less utility than not-discouraging potential new CRitters. But hey, I have no quantifiable basis for that, just an opinion.

He tours the country to this day, promoting Mister Rogers...

itsbruce

@skiwi It's lost mindshare. I don't see much Groovy work outside of Grails and Gradle.

It's also lost serious financial backing and I don't rate the core dev team.

Simon Forsberg McFeely

@itsbruce The Magnolia CMS has support for Groovy scripts. And there are still plenty of DSL's being made in Groovy.

Interestingly I dedicated to take Grails as I was seriously doubting Groovy backing at some point, but because Android uses Gradle now, which uses Groovy, so I think Groovy will not fall anytime soon

Groovy performance has improved a lot with Java7 and with static compilation. which also helps Grails performance some.

I haven't tested Grails performance on big scale yet... Though some day I will...

itsbruce

14:31

But you have to be careful with your code to see the real benefits of that. Particularly wrt closures. Groovy closures are dynamically scoped (boo) which was a hack to make it easier to write builders (which would otherwise have required extra language features). But that means idiomatic use of closures seriously undermines the potential benefits of static compilation.

And that's waaaay too much language nit-picking for this chat room. ;)
