@wycats Gist of hazard Luke brought up: https://gist.github.com/BrendanEich/a748220b894a341bc7a3 …. Rubyists wouldn't make the mistake, JS n00bs might.@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@BrendanEich@awbjs@littlecalculist I buy that argument, not these other points. -
@wycats What "that argument" and "these other points"? I've only made one point throughout.@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@BrendanEich@awbjs@littlecalculist "it's an obvious hazard" is a claim not an argument. Claim not backed by evidence. -
@wycats FWIW I prefer the switch too here but I don't like decisions "because of n00bs" they can learn@BrendanEich@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@WebReflection "They can learn" too low a bar. Kitchen-sink languages incur outsized learning & impl. cost.@wycats@awbjs@littlecalculist -
@BrendanEich@WebReflection@awbjs@littlecalculist arrows are a very complex feature. Not just "shorter functions". -
@wycats So are block lambdas. This is why I wrote that it's either one or the other in the proposals.@WebReflection@awbjs@littlecalculist - 11 more replies
