Note

I would recommend @acdlite's redux-actions over the methods suggested in this Gist.

The methods below can break hot-reloading and don't support Promise-based actions.

Even though 'redux-actions' still uses constants, I've come to terms with the fact that constants can be good, especially in bigger projects. You can reduce boilerplate in different places, as described in the redux docs here: http://gaearon.github.io/redux/docs/recipes/ReducingBoilerplate.html

Mathematics: What do grad students in math do all day?

by Yasha Berchenko-Kogan

A lot of math grad school is reading books and papers and trying to understand what's going on. The difficulty is that reading math is not like reading a mystery thriller, and it's not even like reading a history book or a New York Times article.

The main issue is that, by the time you get to the frontiers of math, the words to describe the concepts don't really exist yet. Communicating these ideas is a bit like trying to explain a vacuum cleaner to someone who has never seen one, except you're only allowed to use words that are four letters long or shorter.

What can you say?

	const bcrypt = require('bcryptjs');
	const crypto = require('crypto');
	const http = require('http');
	const querystring = require('querystring');
	const { promisify } = require('util');

	const randomBytes = promisify(crypto.randomBytes);
	const ONE_YEAR_IN_SEC = 365 * 24 * 60 * 60;

	const users = [];

	* This monkey patch allows to return Promises from middleware and route handlers, rejections will be handled automaticaly.

	* Please note:
	* If you return something from `(...) -> void` callbacks - you shoot your own leg.
