https://github.com/taunus/taunus is a very cool isomorphic JS framework with a strong progressive rendering policy. We need more isomorphic tooling.

It's frustrating that many great BF programs have authorship but no clear license. It's hard to build a good BF test suite of 'real' code.

The vast majority of C compilers have a hand-written recursive descent parser. It's rare to see yacc in the wild.

It's interesting to note that LLVM's aggressive API churn is fantastic for forcing companies to push code upstream: http://t.co/UTiq0ujTv6

6to5 now rewrites functions with TCO! https://github.com/6to5/6to5/pull/714#issuecomment-73433079 (I wrote an elisp equivalent, but this is far more general)
Added complete TCO (tail call optimization). by RReverser · Pull Request #714 · babel/babel

Works across functions and generates simpler and faster code than #701. Works even across files when used in conjunction with runtime option. Closes #256.
