This is the the quote I've been citing a lot recently.

@OctopiPoker Code invalid before midnight PST?

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@BartHanson Mostly just limp here. Best actions are limp, raise, raise bigger. No folding here in 1/3 with 200bb in CO.

@BenLesh @rescriptlang @swyx Drawbacks include getting up to speed on functional programming (if not already there), some early confusion with currying by default, and tooling not quite being up to par yet (TS surfaces better real-time in-editor warnings - ReScript gives clearer compiler errors).

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@BenLesh @rescriptlang @swyx Language benefits I like include guaranteed type safety, variants & pattern matching, pipelines. Considerable compiler optimizations are nice too including significant inlining and extremely fast compile and recompile times.

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@BenLesh @rescriptlang @swyx Quite a few disparate opinions here. But from my experience with pure JS, Flow, TypeScript, and now ReScript, the latter provides the most real-world benefit. It’s not a superset of JavaScript, but a functional, type-safe language.

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@wycats It would be tough to make this determination without first-hand experience. That’s like a firefighter wondering why we pay full time SREs when sites almost never go down.

Oh... crap. :)

🎥 @jasonaden1 explained at #ngconf2017 how to package @angular apps - are you still doing it this way? What do you think has improved since then?

You simply can't stop him 🔥! @nate_lapinski is watching all developments with #Angular Router and is quick to share new stuff coming up in v7. Today it's "Improved Navigation in Angular 7 with switchMap" https://t.co/I2mkQsa5Xz #webdev #javascript

[Angular inDepth @Angular_InDepth]

A new gem has arrived! In his new article @nate_lapinski who reverse-engineers #Angular Router talks about updates in v7.1. He explains the motivation, use cases and shows the usage. For most curios he even included PR links! https://t.co/KyNh65KUIc #javascript #webdev @angular

[Jan-Niklas Wortmann @wordmandotdev]

For all the #rxjs devs out there.

Do you think it would be helpful to add a section to the docs where we compare similar operators, e.g. switchmap & flatmap or *map in general

I'm really curious wether this would help devs to get into rxjs 👩‍💻
Votes and RTs appreciated! ❤️

Lazy Loading with Ivy 🍃

🤖 Standardized APIs
🛠️ Works with existing tooling
📝 Easier to document

@jasonaden1 #AngularConnect

[Francisco Silva @x1c0]

Ivy is not only about faster builds and smaller bundle sizes but also about a much better debugging experience! 🙌🏼 @jasonaden1 #angularConnect

[Anton @BorriesAnton]

Waah pretty blown away by lazy loading with Ivy using dynamic typescript imports! Great talk @jasonaden1 at #angularconnect

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@cedric_exbrayat Yes, that’s right. Thanks mentioning. 👍

[Jason Aden @jasonaden1]

@myspivey @BenLesh When you need to perform side effects, don't care about the result, but you need to wait for it to complete. In this case it's in Angular's router where we fire some hooks that may have async operations to be waited on, but the result is ignored.
