6. Law of the vital few (aka Pareto principle, 80/20 rule) It commonly takes 20% of the full time to complete 80% of a task while to complete the last 20% of a task takes 80% of the effort. Achieving absolute perfection may be impossible and so, as increasing effort results in diminishing returns, further activity becomes increasingly inefficient.

ES.NEXT (Proposals) • A new primitive that provides a way to represent whole numbers larger than 253 • 2n**53n === JavaSccript M(a)eth (lol) BigInt • import() can be used from scripts, not just from modules. • Dynamically load parts of a JavaScript application at runtime (because of factors only known at runtime ... Ex. User Language); import() • #private Class field declaration
17. ES.NEXT (Proposals) • @defineElement(‘potato’) • @bound • @observed Decorators • Simillar to RxJS implementation of it. Observable • sqrt(64) becomes 64 |> sqrt. • let result = „hello” |> addQuote |> capitalize |> exclaim; The Pipeline Operator
18. I don’t know the future, but since I don’t see one without internet... Bet on JavaScript. That’s my tip for past, present and future betting.
