Determine the best "other" Sublime Text pane.
def determine_output_pane(self):
"""
When the user performs some action which results in a file being
opened or generated in a new tab, we should place that "output"
code in an adjacent pane. This method will determine the correct
pane to place the output in.
It will use a tab to the right, if one exists in the current row.
If not, output is placed in the adjacent tab to the left. Output
should always be adjacent, and should never be on a different row,

The trouble with ES6 named import/exports

The trouble with ES6 named import/exports

-or-

Regarding renaming SET_RELATIONSHIP_INFORMATION_ERRORS to SET_ERRORS:

I've noticed a particular issue that seems to have come about with the advent of named import/exports in ES6 — that is, that variable names have grown in length by orders of magnitude. This seems to be the result of the need to namespace. For instance, let's say you have a set of user actions...

React "Containers / Components" are an anti-pattern

Yeah, the "container vs component" distinction is falling more and more out of favor with me. It's an okay pattern to start, but it's a pretty hard black/white in a place where things are a lot more grey.

In my opinion, there's no reason for this:

// app/index.jsx
import AppComponent from './App'

const AppContainer = ({foo, bar, baz, buz, wham, bam, alakazam, setFoo, setBar, setBaz, setBuz, setWham, setBam, setAlakazam}) =>
  <AppComponent foo={foo} bar={bar} baz={baz} buz={buz} wham={wham} bam={bam} alakazam={alakazam} setFoo={setFoo}, setBar={setBar}, setBaz={setBaz}, setBuz={setBuz}, setWham={setWham}, setBam={setBam}, setAlakazam={setAlakazam} />
