“Avoid starting a line with ( [ + – / but if you have to, prepend it with a semicolon”
And you call this “elengant” ?? ;-)

We definitely have different elegance definitions!

I agree that ASI is one of the bad parts of javascript. My elegant solution is to remove ASI and forcing semicolon at the end of each statement.

In italian (and maybe most western languages) we use the “full stop” (dot) to complete a sentence, but most time you can tell anyway where the end is because you don’t have more words in the same line and the following line starts with an uppercase.

So: would Italian be more elegant by removing full stops at the end of the last sentence of each paragraph? I will loudly say “NO please” if you ask me. :-)

Wave made chat and e-mail play well together, with a great replay feature, bots and translation. Twitter gives short text updates. Adoption declared the winner, but we already knew it. [...]

Pensare ai bivi (facili) che la Storia ha gestito male solleva in me un misto di ansia e noia…
