Git is distributed, but obviously you're going to have a canonical repository somewhere (git.kernel.org, for instance). Decentralization doesn't mean getting rid of a canonical place where approved patches end up, and you really a

It's not shocking at all that they make people uncomfortable, just like it's not surprising that it's uncomfortable when someone points their mobile phone at you on the train. It's not rocket science, I think people shou

I'd like to think Angular 2 will be well received, even if we are probably checking off more than a few of these boxes (not that AngularJS 1.x doesn't, though)

Even if they can't make this effective (and cost effective) for people who have had the disease for over a decade, that's still fantastic news and a good reason to be hopeful. I'll drink to that.

I'm glad you're finding Angular is working well for you! You may be (okay, considering what this article is about, you probably are) aware of this, but we're making an effort to drastically improve the performance of the dirt

I'm fairly sure they're not writing device drivers or TCP/IP stacks, so they likely don't depend on a systems level language. A lot of work has gone into enabling people to write their apps using these interpreted langua

I'm not seeing it in the latest Harmony draft, but it is already available in some implementations, and polyfills tend to have it. (one of) The issue(s) which is coming up for us WRT O.o is that current implementations don't seem

While I haven't used it personally, I've heard of people shipping Node.js as part of iOS apps (and, for that matter, as part of Firefox extensions), but even without Node.js, most of these devices will have some JS runtime, in or

It would be a net benefit for everyone if people stopped believing San Francisco was some kind of "technology/business mecca" or something. We need budding tech sectors all over the world, and we don't need everyone tryi

You want to avoid making it look like it's actually "endorsed" by Google, or a product of Google's, despite interop with one of Google's products. The name can be an issue here, so you might want to come up with som

IQ is not "cognitive ability", it's a fallible (and arguably biased) quantification/quotient of a (not exhaustive) set of measures of (some form of) cognitive ability. People generally don't have their IQs "mea

Myself and plenty of other women are absolutely involved in technology (and loving it). But, is software development really "power"? Is it really "changing the world"? Is it really all that meaningful? This is where I st

The angularjs.org sites are indexed, just by using a trivial nginx directive to selectively serve partials to crawlers. All of the angularjs.org apps still rank fairly well using this strategy. This isn't always appropriate of course,

That might be a bit of an exaggeration, although on the Angular side, we'd certainly like to have it pref'd on by default this summer (as unlikely as that may be). Anyways, I really think people are sort of attributing malice to G

FB React is a good example because it's living more in the presentation layer. But Custom Elements offer some things that React doesn't (as far as I'm aware). One is better encapsulation, another is a well defined styling sys

The 1.x injector is not a very difficult pattern to understand, so if you're working with Angular you should pick up on it quickly. However, for production apps, you're probably not using "magic" function annotation, at
