As far as I can tell, it's that theres more search results for "angular sucks" vs "jquery sucks". But that's a horrible metric, all you have to do is go 10 pages back and see that most articles have nothing to do with "Angular sucking". As for more people thinking angular sucks, http://www.google.com/trends/explore#q=angular%20sucks%2C%20... is a pretty strong rebuke to that point.
You can probably apply the same logic to most things, especially something like scala. On the surface when you see a method definition in scala that looks like

def split: scala.Seq[Task[Combiner[S, That], FlatMap[S, That]]]

you kinda scratch your head. But once you understand whats happening it doesnt feel so intimidating. I think technologies that have a good long term benefit, but a difficult upfront learning curve tend to get this kind of reaction. I think Angular is a brilliant framework and makes coding in javascript enjoyable. Yes, I had to read 10 articles before I understood what the hell transclusion was, but once you invest a little time learning, it doesnt feel so bad.
This is a huge step. But the EU states still have to agree on that. So it will probably still take many months for a final decision.
I think you typed "unrest" when you meant "democracy".

The Egyptian army is not perfect, but the Muslim Brotherhood was worse. Iraq and Afghanistan are also better off then they were under Saddam and the Taliban.

You're incorrect. No individual letters of the alphabet are commands. Every symbol on the keyboard however is an operator (excluding semicolon, braces, brackets, and parens, which operate as line/expression terminators, function definitions, function invocation/array access, and list definitions, respectively).
Too true. Unfortunately, in the eyes of almost all world governments, any drug that's enjoyable seems to automatically lose any medically useful properties it may possess. It's a sad situation that could be fixed with real drug education and not the one-sided propaganda programs (D.A.R.E. and friends) that substitute for it.

> The main reason Angular JS will fail is because it’s difficult.

I'm glad good scientists don't stop studying something because it's difficult, it would have sucked for quantum theory.

Seriously, though, that's the argument? A technology will fail because it's difficult? Hopefully the OP meant "overcomplicated" or "I tried to learn it and it was beyond my ability", but saying that something will fail because it's difficult is just stupid.

Besides, even if Angular were to fail overnight, right now. The download sites go dark, the team is disbanded and starts working on something else, I'd argue that Angular has already succeeded by showing everyone a new way to tackle single apps and how to structure Javascript applications.

Having said that, I'm pretty sure Angular is going to be around for quite a while.

My disagreement is with the sentiment of this quote: "The main theme is music being accepted and respected as art and being treated as such."

I don't believe that turning more artistic mediums into investment vehicles is really a path to respect and acceptance. In fact, I think people believing they deserve music for free comes from the acceptance and respect they already have for music; they consider it vital.

Can't work out whether you are being sarcastic or not, but the notion of a free country exporting freedom and democracy is a novel one. A quick survey of history will tell you that a country A being democratic does not necessarily mean it will support countries to follow suit. Think England back in the late 1800s: Very liberal by anyone's standards at that time, but follows horrendous policies overseas.

5 Tips for Recruiting Developers
Well, the US has a pretty checkered history regarding Cuba if you're going to talk about altruism. I'd say we've done more to inadvertantly prop up that regime than to undermine it. There are 3 nominally communist countries left in the world, from a high of dozens -- Cuba's one of them, and probably the closest to actually being communist (China and North Korea being technocratic-capitalist and pharaonic, respectively).
This paper was discussed on HN three years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2379098), but I'm resubmitting because it's been a while, I figure most people haven't seen it, and it's a great paper. It really got me thinking when I first read it. Specifically on the notion the issue of: how sure are you, really, that the compiler you implement is correct? As someone who works on a programming language, the question is not merely academic.
I think you mean the value of attending WWDC is overrated.

Somebody please make a device which is more accessible (pricewise), and can be used to prototype/interface with common digital protocols (i2c, uart's, spi, CAN, ethernet, USB).

I'd imagine it could be a mashup of SBC (Beagle, Olimex's LIME, heck, even RaspberryPi) and Bus Pirate. Add a screen and battery, and call it a day.

I don't think a device like this should have the fastest CPU and plenty of RAM (that wouldn't hurt of course).
Ask HN:c++ for mobile
Hello,

Why there aren't any mobile plateformes out there that help develpers build mobile apps with c++
Agreed. I definitely don't think we've always had the best policies on Cuba, and also am not entirely convinced Cuba is itself the best target of this sort of effort.

But regardless I think the tactics themselves are commendable. Speech, not guns.
While I was in university, I suffered (not knowingly at the time) from pretty bad depression. I basically was extremely self-destructive, and at 19 was experimenting with various drugs. My roommate's girlfriend stole a half used bottle of ketamine from a veterinary clinic she worked at. They dried the liquid into powder form in the microwave, and we all used it by snorting it. (as I said, I was hell bent on self destruction)

Obviously, whatever dose we obtained would be far, far beyond a clinical amount. I immediately sank into what is called a "k-hole" and had what is often described as an "out of body" sensation. I was 5 years old again, walking along the beach in winter, looking through my father's binoculars at the humpback whales. A feeling of peace and calm came to me, and some amount of time later (perhaps an hour) I awoke from the "k-hole."

The sense of peace I felt remained. I wasn't intoxicated, nor did I feel any other effects. I just felt like I had before my girlfriend had died two years before.

That was the last time I touched a drug other than alcohol or marijuana.
Because those strong governments surely don't mean to exploit the resources of the country to buy themselves gold plated private jets...
One of the main differences is that apt will do that for you. You made it sound like you had to manually research and ask apt to download each library, when actually you probably just typed 'apt-get install samba' and it took care of researching and downloading all that crap for you.

In Windows, that doesn't exist. The installer either bundles it for you (which can be bad if you weren't expecting it, although is usually fine) or it leaves it in your hands to find and download the correct version yourself.

So yes, not exactly the worse thing ever (still an improvement over the old DLL-HELL) but it's nowhere near how friendly a decent package manager is, either.

Yes, they are getting "high". I'm not sure what your point is however.

I've never understood the stigma associated with all mind-altering drugs, regardless the relative 'safety' of certain drugs in comparison to legal, and far more dangerous alternatives (nicotine and alcohol).
> As retrospective studies go, it's not bad. But retrospective studies have a well-deserved and terrible reputation for confusing causes and effects.

So do the double-blind studies you appear to be advocating. Ever thought of what exactly the placebo effect is and what some causes might be ?

> Apart from your obviously false claim, The "medical establishment" are not scientists and are not competent to make that call. They are not researchers, they are practitioners of methods developed by others.

The medical establishment are people who treat the sick, mostly. They observe that they regularly have people who come in with nutritional deficiencies because they are vegetarians and didn't follow the diets properly. One look at such a diet tells you exactly why this happens. Second is that you observe that vegetarianism and eating disorders go hand in hand.

You know what contains every single substance your body needs on a daily basis, all vitamins, minerals, calcium, you name it and will prevent nearly every food disorder, and it's hypo-allergenic (meaning perfectly safe for very nearly every patient you have) ? A 150gr steak. The only thing it doesn't have is sufficient calories, so you should also have something starchy with it. (And to be pedantic, it's the fatty tissue in the steak that's the main source of it's good properties. And yes, we're talking a rare to medium steak here)

You know what vegetarian food contains every single substance your body needs on a daily basis ... None. What should a vegetarian eat daily ?
* Nuts
* Beans
* Spinach or soy (or tofu, even if that's less ideal)
* Sunlight (yes, really), or Vitamin D supplements
* Vitamin B12 supplements

Needless to say, this list is very much not hypo-allergenic, there is a significant fraction of the population (not that many, granted, but you have to check) that will swell up and start convulsing if you feed this to them. There are obviously other vegetarian diets, but they have similar problems.

True, missing one of these for a day is very much unlikely to kill you, but prolonged shortages will. Also keep in mind that you should never raise a kid vegetarian, because that is much riskier than being vegetarian as adults. There have been cases of kids dying because of vegan diets.

What I find extremely convenient is the physical symptoms of low-level protein deficiency. First : it's really, really bad for you. But the initial symptoms are sleeping more, weight loss and tissue loss (ie. not just fatty tissue). That's imho why people do this : because it slims you down.

Incidentally, the one thing that is confirmed to slim you down by removing fatty tissue is cold. And if you don't overdo it (e.g. go swimming in a 24 degree water pool) it is quite safe. It's not about feeling cold, merely about increasing your body's heat loss.

Not all jurisdictions allow filing against a bankrupt entity, and considering that Japanese law is heavily influenced by German law, I doubt it's possible in Japan. I can't find any easily accessible English language literature on it, though.
Exactly. If you don't want to burden your little head with OPAs and APIs and application architectures, just stick the jQuery and happily manipulate the DOM here and there as you see fit. If you want to make something bigger, something more app-like (in your browser), something that's not merely a web page, you're going to need some structure like that found in an MVC framework.

Coming off working on a large Backbone app, I've seen how bloated, needlessly repeated, and painstakingly verbose things can get. Angular solves a lot of the problems I have with Backbone by taking care of basic plumbing for me so I can focus on the unique parts of my app. It's magical, but that's what I want in a framework: less pounding out boilerplate and more writing application code.
Yep sorry that's exactly what I meant. The resources are excellent and definitely appreciate the amount of effort that goes into producing it all.
I have a couple of thoughts on this.

1. This is freakin' brilliant! Its about time someone stepped up and treated their craft like true art. There is only one Mona Lisa. Yes, we have prints all over the place, but there is only one Mona Lisa. And its valuable!

Now, not all artists can do this. Wu-Tang can. They have been around for a while. They have sold millions. They have a big fan based. So, this is perfect for them. They'll still earn money from shows. Probably more now that each show has something "historic" to offer now that a song from the new album will be performed here and there.

Great job Wu-Tang!

2. Imagine if the Beetles' White Album or MJ's Thriller, or Eagles Their Greatest Hits, or even Nirvana's Nevermind was a "one print" album. I wonder how much it would be worth. Its exciting to think about.

Vietnam is too, in name, but is similar to China, from what I understand. Laos is communist is well, IIRC.
Angular allows for a clear separation of concerns and it's easy to teach individuals standards (isolate dom manipulation, no global state if possible, clear techniques like promises and data binding). It's similar techniques, if not easier, than node.js. Should we assume node.js will fail because it's too difficult for the author?
We found that the Angular learning curve was steep and was difficult to bring new devs up to speed quickly.

Our solution was to migrate from Angular to ReactJS. Much simpler, faster and better.

Industrial.

You'll probably find that most price-sensitive consumer devices that don't need to interface to a standard protocol like WiFi will use very basic RF communication with a homebrew protocol. It makes the engineering cost much higher than using more complex devices, but spread over hundreds of thousands or millions of units, that cost vanishes.

OTOH, industrial markets are a lot less price sensitive. Also, quantities sold will be much less, so the device's unit price has to be higher to make building it worthwhile.
I think a better argument would have been not adding Angular to every project by default because it's the new hotness/shiny. There is a great use case for Angular but if all you need are some onclick's then yeah Angular is overkill and complicated. But if you need two-way binding and a semi-complicated UI then it simplifies a lot of stuff vs. straight up JQuery.

Minor aside, I like the chainsaw metaphor and use it a lot when thinking about programming tools and languages.

Before choosing a tool / language, I check if the task is to (metaphorically) cut a single tree or an entire patch of trees. If the answer is former, I choose an axe (a simpler tool), else I stick with the chainsaw no matter how difficult it gets, as it will pay in the long run.

For those interested, he's also written a web framework:
http://okmaya.com/2012/08/08/successfully-completed-the-fram...

It eschews OOP, for the following reasons:

"1. Now imagine coming to a website where you have to wait even 30 seconds for every page to load because it has to build objects. Just doesn’t make any sense.

2.Why build objects on every page load, when all the objects are going to be gone once the page is loaded anyway?

3.It’s like building a stock car at the start of every race only to completely take it apart at the finish line. Pointless."

He also gives out some advice:

"Note to OOP Web Devs. Stop being lazy and learn to actually program."

That's what I was looking for when I found Angular.

There are definitely two questions worth asking:

1) Is that combination really what we want? (I think it is)

and

2) Is Angular's approach the only right way to do it?

So far, they've got the mindshare and a serious head start.

The Keynes article he briefly touches on is fantastic

http://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/economics/keynes/1...

"Yet there is no country and no people, I think, who can look forward to the age of leisure and of abundance without a dread. For we have been trained too long to strive and not to enjoy. It is a fearful problem for the ordinary person, with no special talents, to occupy himself, especially if he no longer has roots in the soil or in custom or in the beloved conventions of a traditional society. To judge from the behaviour and the achievements of the wealthy classes to-day in any quarter of the world, the outlook is very depressing! For these are, so to speak, our advance guard – those who are spying out the promised land for the rest of us and pitching their camp there. For they have most of them failed disastrously, so it seems to me – those who have an independent income but no associations or duties or ties – to solve the problem which has been set them.

I feel sure that with a little more experience we shall use the new-found bounty of nature quite differently from the way in which the rich use it to-day, and will map out for ourselves a plan of life quite otherwise than theirs.

For many ages to come the old Adam will be so strong in us that everybody will need to do some work if he is to be contented. We shall do more things for ourselves than is usual with the rich to-day, only too glad to have small duties and tasks and routines. But beyond this, we shall endeavour to spread the bread thin on the butter – to make what work there is still to be done to be as widely shared as possible. Three-hour shifts or a fifteen-hour week may put off the problem for a great while. For three hours a day is quite enough to satisfy the old Adam in most of us! "

This is a fundamental problem for frameworks. To be better, you have to be different. People don't like different. They do like better, though, so the design goal has to be maximize better while minimizing different.

Angular's explosive growth suggests they've done a reasonably good job of that, and will continue to increase their better:different ratio. You can't please everybody, though.
