Yeah, underscores.

@fellshard : what blog post are you referring to?

fellshard15:04:46

His prior two did eldritch things with Clojure; for this one, he does eldritch and horrible and hilarious things with Haskell's types.

a fun fact, comparing the memory mapped file read I mentioned on the main channel on:

osx oracle java 6, 7, and 8 and 
 ubuntu linux oracle java 6, 7, 8 and openjdk 8
on osx java 7 is faster (26ms criterium measured vs 39ms) than both 6 and 8, and on linux (surprisingly) openjdk 8 is the fastest with 8ms vs around 10ms on all others. Two surprises for me there: 1. that java 7 is faster than java 8 on osx, and that openjdk is faster than oracle on linux…and then there is the weird discrepancy between linux and osx…guess I’ll blame that on either osx or the mac book pro. As far as disk speeds, bus etc the two machines in question are comparable and certainly not a 4x difference

hey, people ... I just wrote an article about ES7, javascript new features. Take a look: https://medium.com/@flaviohfreitas/es7-a-simple-and-useful-guide-to-master-it-6aba54abb4df and let me know what you think 😉

ES7 will not also include that ungly @prefn(abc) that you use "over" a function?
