Echo JS 0.11.0

Edited to recorded Twitch stream archive, since it's not accessible on the link posted.

If you're using a Proxy, it's best to use a function to create the proxy and handlers, in order to isolate/abstract any Map/Object used for stowing data outside the object being observed.

This is poor advice these days... most tooling is/has moved towards module patterns that isolate code based on modules.  Most browsers even have built in support for javascript modules at this point, and there are ever more sites that publish the likes of npm as ecmascript modules for easier use in that fashion.

Currently, these are a bit slower than what bundlers can do, but is definitely the way forward... this advice seems like a flashback to pre-2010 advice for JavaScript.  This really started to change in 2010-2012 with Browserify with 6to5 and later Webpack and Babel (renamed 6to5).  Now there's more options including Parcel, TypeScript, Babel, Webpack and others.

It's funny, I have a little bit of a reputation for being blunt and kind of an ass about things.  I'm anti-woke, anti-socialist, pro-libertarian etc, but man, this guy takes the cake.

Note: I did add the part in parens on the title, again I can be a bit of an ass.

It's really kind of funny, all things considered that someone perporting to be anti-spam has created more than every other source combined... and that's after adding, I think well over a hundred entries in the domain blocks and deleting dozens of accounts.

For the most part, most of the spam is actually posted by hand, and one-offs from new accounts, so even then the proposed methods wouldn't do too much, email validation would at least allow for blocking problem email domains, etc. But it's all cat and mouse.  At least people are commenting/discussing on here, about the only good thing to come of this.

Why attack it at all?  All you are doing is demonstrating you are a spoiled asshole.

If you are so smart, and have so much time, why is it you cannot create a pull request to add this feature?  No, you act like an entitled, spoiled child.

We have day jobs, and not a lot of free time to add the code needed.  Fabien is a new dad.  Instead of actually reporting the issue, making the suggestion and being patient, you continue to throw a tantrum like a toddler whose parents are completely absent.

You have single-handedly created more spam in the past month, than every single source other than you combined.  When you originally spammed the group, I was on vacation and Fabien (again, new baby) was otherwise occupied.

What a fucking childish asshole.

Edited: my original response was somewhat abusive and fowl... the guy has it coming imo.

Yes.

Since this is a major version release and directly to the release notes, generally okay.

As to frequency, I don't recall seeing this project linked recently, but I could be wrong...

Usually when I see several posts in a week/month, I'll usually start nuking them and may add the site/project to the blacklist if it's particularly bad.  Will also add redirect link sites to the blocklist as well.

I'd suggest you consider looking at puppeteer and cheerio.

Also, this would be better asked on stackoverflow.com
