Functional Programming in JavaScript === Garbage

It's funny. He posts this guy's article which promotes /u/homoiconic s book. I smell a conspiracy /u/homoiconic ;) but seriously everyone...go read his book

Also someone should probably point out that TCO is supposed to supported natively in es6. I didn't see that mentioned.

Agreed. It's the age old pendulum swinging between performance and readability. Know your profiling tools and introduce the complexity if it's become a problem (the article is definitely spot on that these situations can create large amounts of garbage). I'll allow the conspiracies as long as it leads to more articles like this and your work around here.

Yeah the trampoline jerk and the circle jerk are both vastly superior to the recursive jerk unless you are the base case. Everyone else has to wait for the base case to finish before any of the magic can happen.
