   This is a good set of arguments explaining some challenging corners of AngularJS. It is true that when you start getting into the realm of edge cases, substantial knowledge of the framework's internals is required to put together a sol

   For the vast majority of websites, this is true and I agree. However, there are now websites that are more akin to applications than to the traditional website of yore and that are meaningless without Javascript. This is not a bad thing; it

   Google has proven itself as a company capable of, and prepared to move into new markets and to diversify its portfolio of services. Twitter, on the other hand, has only diversified around the 140 character concept. In my mind, it is diversi

   You can actually do that in Plunker right now by having an `index.md` file instead of `index.html` [1]. In the absence of an html index, the plunker preview server will try transpiling to html from different languages. Markdown is currently

   This is a really cool and ambitious project. Although some mention ShareJS, I would say that the OT portion more closely resembles that employed by Firebase in their Firepad project [1] (in that no centralized server manages ordering and hi

   Wow, thanks for reminding me of http://bootswatch.com ! I just checked it out again after having not looked for a while and I'm impressed with the v3-targeted swatches.

   I think that making claims on the changing capital market climate based on historical P/E ratios may be measuring the wrong thing. A declining trend in P/E ratios may suggest a decline in valuations but it also may suggest a chang

    I think that the addition of support for keyframe-based animations in 1.1.5 is really the killer feature. This will allow for drop-in animations (like animate.css, mentioned in the deck) in the same sort of way that bootstrap allowed for dr

    For those wanting to give it a quick try, you can easily fool around with a simplistic Ember.js app on Plunker: http://plnkr.co/edit/gist:5206526?p=preview I would love to see more of the Ember community on Plunker!

    This is and will continue to be a challenge for the AngularJS team. While comprehensive, their documentation for complex things like directives seems more contributor-oriented than user-oriented. Fortunately, the users on the Google group a

    I've been really looking forward to this ever since I saw this post[1] on the possibilities that coroutines introduce for async programming. This article in question was already discussed in some depth on HN[2]. Can't wait for an era of muc

    If you guys are interested in putting together some usable examples (in the spirit of docs.angularjs.org), I would love to help you integrate live examples with Plunker ( http://plnkr.co/edit/ ). Bootstrapping an editor session is as simple

    Paul, very cool indeed. Stretch goal: How about having an in-browser API that could create such a websocket? That would open some interesting possibilities in terms of remote debugging by piping socket traffic over another socket/WebRTC dat

    Hi Paul, What I understood from your article is that you're mostly exploring 1) the possibility of opening up the dev tools to locally-installed applications like SublimeText2; and 2) the integration of jsFiddle-like apps within DevTools. P

    @jashkenas: with the release of this surprise, 'skunkworks' feature, what do you see as the future for Coffee-Script-Redux? Does the project remain relevant despite the recent activity in the original Coffee-Script project?

    To: JAshkenas, JWalton From: The interwebs Thank you for this! One of the biggest justifications for avoiding Coffee-Script has been the difficulty in debugging the translated code since there is (no longer) a 1-1 line mapping. This is now
