This reddit post - Sharing some JS-recipes I've been using in projects via chandru89new is interesting.

I like it because I keep my own patterns.

But this comment via GrandMasterPuba:

It's so funny seeing developers re-invent functional programming paradigms. We really need to teach this stuff better.

You've discovered or are on the track to discovering the Maybe functor, futures, Monoidal properties of the Promise monad, and lenses.

Yeah, I need more functional programming skills.

• Next: TIL the cost of spaces on TypeScript compileOne nice surprise we found from using esbuild was that on-disk size was reduced by more than we expected. It turns out that a big reason for this is that esbuild uses 2 spaces for indentation in output instead of the 4 spaces that TypeScript uses. When gzipping, the difference is very small; but on disk, we saved a considerable amount.
