[20:57] <WesMac> Man, I can't believe that, in JS-land, I have to do a selling job on late-binding-kindof-idiom
[20:57] <WesMac> i.e. computed require / computed dependencies
[20:58] <WesMac> Make that's just the kind of insight you get from writing 10-20 KLOC of GNU Make in your career
[20:58] <WesMac> er, /^Make/^Maybe
[20:58] <WesMac> I love make's late/lazy variable evaluation, incredibly powerful, but tricky to use effectively
[21:06] <WesMac> deanlandolt1: Omitting dependencies is not a performance optimization
[21:07] <WesMac> deanlandolt1: It is brittle, feature-reducing, and well, explicit is better than implicit
[21:07] <WesMac> All IMHO, of course :)
[22:18] <deanlandolt1> WesMac: it's an optimization if you have sync require
[22:18] <deanlandolt1> it's not even an optimization i guess
[22:18] <deanlandolt1> so yeah, i guess you're right :)
[23:35] <Wes-> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh
[23:35] <Wes-> mail on the list goes round and round
[23:36] <Wes-> round and round
[23:36] <Wes-> round and round
