  • Not wrong, but funnily enough, it’s a linting rule win. I’d go nuts if I didn’t have my type checks and my linters. My current L, though, is setting up the projects initially and dealing with the configuration files if I raw dog it, but that’s a problem with ESLint configs and the ecosystem as a whole having to deal with those headaches. So in the end, the JS devs got clever and shifted the blame to the tooling. 😅




  • Explanation for nerds

    The reason is the JS compiler removes whitespace and introduces semicolons only “where necessary”.

    So writing

    function myFn() {
      return true;
    }
    

    Is not the same as

    function myFn() {
      return 
        true;
    }
    

    Because the compiler will see that and make it:

    function myFn() { return; true; }
    

    You big ol’ nerd. Tee-hee.





  • The title is still off.

    The breakthrough is about using a “three-molecule cocktail” to grow functional cow muscle with thick fibers whereas previous methods could only grow thin fibers. The lab can grow meat that more closely resemble regular beef because the cells differentiate better, producing other necessary proteins that allows it to contract using those fibers for support.

    Crazy that this finding comes from basic research into muscle diseases in rats.
