What is TSDoc? | TSDoc
A proposed standard for "docstrings" for TypeScript. Well, not docstrings in the Lisp/Python sense, but comments that can be used to document an API in place and allow for the generation of documentation from them.

OSA JavaScript recipes
For a while, you've been able to script Mac OS using JavaScript using JavaScript for Open Scripting Architecture (JSOSA). This is a huge improvement on AppleScript. Why?

Good little article about the pitfalls of using boolean values as parameters for a function. Not the first time I've seen this sort of thing (I'm sure I read a similar article years before, and a similar thing in a coding book even earlier).
Still good advice.
At least it's a little better in languages with keyword arguments.
