(Slightly OT for this list, but...)
Just curious, was there, is there ongoing, a discussion of the prudence
of having a context object in the first place?
IMO, Perl does this the right way: the namespace/$this is just the first
argument that the function receives; i.e., $obj->func('foo') will
receive args of ( $obj, 'foo' ).

For me

is cleaner than

I used .bind() a lot to get rid of scope-problems for once and all
times. But then the code became, well, a mess: Everything I saw was
calls to .bind() ;-) Way too much noise. And it did not really solve
every scope-problem for once and all times.
Now I use .bind() when it is really necessary.

By the way it's not greatest bind use case, I wouldn't use bind here. In
some older versions of node (v0.6.3 ?) , setTimeout passes one argument to
the callback, and in your example it will be logged as well.

Hi all,
I have recently come to use .bind a lot, because it makes for very
clean code.
So rather than doing
<code>
var x; // this has some value that comes from prior code
setTimeout(function() { console.log(x) }, 5000);
</code>
I am now often doing
<code>
var x;
setTimeout(console.log.bind(console, x), 5000);
</code>
The question I have is: what is more performant? Is there any reason
to avoid .bind()?
Regards, Phil
