Video: An overview of ECMAScript 6

By -
On 2013-05-30, I held the talk “An overview of ECMAScript 6” at Fluent Conference, in San Francisco. The video is now publicly available (go there for a larger version of the video). And yes, I was slightly jet-lagged.




You can download the slides on the official page of the talk.

Maya Angelou

The thing I most appreciate about celebrated writer, Maya Angelou , is her bravery.   She spoke and wrote what was on her mind, never mincing words.   In today’s world of empty praise and false positive affirmation, this poet is a fresh ocean breeze in the heat of summer.   I love her poetry and I teach it often along with her memoir, I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings .   Her work connects back to the Harlem Renaissance writers and other African-American artists.   The title of her memoir comes from a poem by Paul Lawrence Dunbar (1872-1906).   However, she is not an artist addressing a particular race; she is a poet for the ages and for all people, a true American treasure. The Washington Post published a piece yesterday by Valerie Strauss that made clear Angelou’s ability to speak the truth.   She was exuberant about the election of President Obama, and he in turn awarded her the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011.   However, she often spo...

Beaucoup de gens la trouvent très belle

Iris Mittenaere , 24, est la première Française depuis une soixantaine d'années à être couronnée Miss Univers . Brune d'1m72, Iris étudie la chirurgie dentaire, et compte lancer en France des efforts d'hygiène bucco-dentaire. Pourquoi pas ? Il ne faut pas confondre ce concours américain avec celui de Miss Monde, né en Grande-Bretagne. Je découvre avec une certaine surprise qu'Iris n'a pas le genre de beauté féminine qui m'attire, mais je ne sais pas du tout ce que ça signifie. Hier soir, j'ai regardé Je vous trouve très beau à la télévision. Alors là, pour moi, la comédienne roumaine Medeea Marinescu est franchement Miss Terre : le genre de jeune paysanne qui, sur une propriété agricole de la Drôme, me ferait courir comme un fou sur les pentes. L'attirance sexuelle est vraiment quelque chose de très particulier. Heureusement que ça ne compte pas dans les concours dits "de beauté"...   Voilà, encore une fois, un domaine que l’on pourrait expl...

No Strangers To Tragedy

Courtesy CBS News Two recent stories continue to haunt me, as I’m sure they haunt the rest of the nation. At a Pennsylvania high school , young Alex Hribal, age 16, greeted his fellow students one morning last week by stabbing 21 of them with a set of kitchen knives.   He also attacked a school security officer.   Four of his victims remain in critical condition. Tomorrow, the school will reopen so parents and students can do a walk-through.   The school plant has been cleaned and sanitized of the blood and gore, but the fear, I’m afraid, will be much harder to clean away.   Classes begin on Wednesday, but it is safe to say no one in the community will be the same again. Hribal did not stand out as a troubled teen before the rampage.   Mental illness does not necessarily broadcast its presence to the world before bullets fly or steel flashes, bloodstained and corroded, in a school hallway.   There are sleepers out there, psychologists warn us.   Some...
