chess.com's 72-page report[0] alluded to this video, and I'm glad this is what they had to say: "We have concluded that the methodology and the underlying tools used in those analyses do not meet our standard."

He's a native speaker, just spent too much time around people with broken English recently.

I've recently used Deno to implement a couple of bots for a small discord channel, namely webhook handlers for Discord Slash Commands and Twitch's EventSub. It's honestly been amazing. Next to no configuration and deployments are dead simple. Just set up some env vars and push to github to deploy.

Is there a way to play at 2x speed?

Edit: Oh they're on the overcast app, which allows playing faster.

Why hate JSX? There are lots of benefits to it, like debuggability and variable scoping rules are exactly those of javascript. Templating languages, on the otherhand, are not debuggable and have awkward scoping rules. And, they always feel broken in one way or another.

JSX is not magical which is what I appreciate the most about it.

That is just javascript trivia that one rarely encounters in real code, and shouldn't be used to dismiss the entire language.

My view is you define methods with parameters, you call methods with arguments.

`ArgumentError` is consistent with an error during call time.

Mutable strings was a mistake.

"const a = {}" disallows reassignment to "a" but still allows you to mutate the object e.g. "a.b = 1". The const context does not allow you to mutate the object.

I wrote one for node: https://github.com/kentor/tiny-ssg

No "configuration". All code. You have to assemble the libraries from npm to make anything useful out of it though. Good luck.
