While looking for a potential new role, I noticed that there were a few job openings specifically for a search engineer (not a generic backend engineer role). These aren’t roles for building a search engine like Google but are instead working on the search system of an app. I haven’t worked on search outside of rolling out small solutions using Elastic or a cloud provider’s search service.Are...

I got to play on one of those in a small club in Bushwick last week. It was a blast. If anyone is in the area I would recommend swinging by Jupiter Disco for a cocktail.

Re:Meta-programming JavaScript Using Proxies on Thursday February 05, 2015 @11:08AM (#9003927)

It was odd that the post was prefaced with a warning that "you will have to use Chrome/Chromium" before opening with an example copied and pasted from Mozilla's docs. This is not true. The example works in the Firefox 35.0.1 console out of the box. There are no feature flags or internal browser configurations that need to be changed. Also worth noting that the first example came from an outdated MDN Proxy API documentation page [1]. The current Proxy API page covers the ECMAScript 6 proposal [2].

If you're interested in seeing which browsers have implemented these ES6 features, Kangax has a nice table up on GitHub pages [3].
