@getify @BrendanEich you should gist the code you are saying broke.

@getify@BrendanEich ES5 code was allowed to throw in the constructor, and that was actually a quite common defense!2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@wycats 's decorator proposal I think shows the true power and benefit of class. *THAT*'s the biggie, for me at least.@getify@BrendanEich1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@adamrackis@wycats@brendaneich further reinforcement of my OP… decorators are distinctly "class-like" and alien to prototype-only patterns1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@getify@AdamRackis@BrendanEich ES5 constructors quite often throw when called, just in weird ways. What makes you think otherwise?1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@getify@AdamRackis@BrendanEich you are making an empirical claim: ES5 constructors very rarely throw when [[Call]]ed. Self evidently false2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@wycats@adamrackis@brendaneich i'm making a claim: vast majority of ES5 constructors i've seen either had no guard, or the re-new guard.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@wycats@adamrackis@brendaneich and that virtually none of them had explicit `throw`. yes i'm well aware of strict-mode undefined `this`.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@getify @AdamRackis @BrendanEich the lack of explicit throw matters... why?

@wycats@adamrackis@brendaneich it matters b/c ES6 class constructor now has explicit throw if you use .call… as my gist showed.0 replies 0 retweets 0 likesThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
