Agreed

It's not the same thing. JSX is a user experience enhancement for developers.

But...but...why?

So they don't want to sell any of these?

I get bug reports like that from our QA team! The people whose specialized job it is to report bugs write one line bug reports like "<Feature> doesn't work". No stack traces, no environment information, no steps to reproduce.

I'm not against classes in other languages, especially those that follow a typical OOP pattern (i.e. Java, C#, etc.). See above for my reason re: JavaScript.

What turns me off immediately about TypeScript (and examples in the article show it) is the use of the class construct. If I could see some examples of teams writing TypeScript without falling into the use of classes I would feel a lot better about it. I am in full agreement with Douglas Crockford and others that adding pseudo-classes to JS was a big mistake.

Agreed. Can we get over the 3D fad again please? It was a misguided idea in the 50s and it is just as misguided now.

It is, but CSS is also fundamentally broken so whatever

Not nearly enough RAM

This is the only valid reply to this false and misleading diatribe from Mike Rowe or any of the twits who keep crying about the "skills gap". Why would I break my back and use my expertise for the same amount of money you pay an employee at McDonald's (I am going by Canadian minimum wage)?

Which Thinkpad?

Someone needs to make a job site that filters out recruiters. I am not sure how that would work, but it was save us all a lot of time and energy.

The index's criteria...

...high levels of digital development are attractive to global businesses and investors and that their digital ecosystems are positioned to nurture start ups and internet businesses that can compete globally

...is so nebulous and silly how could anyone take this seriously?

I am trying desperately to understand why TS. How does lumping in the baggage of Java/C# onto a functional language like JS make it better?

We have to wait for the previous generation to retire or die before we can get critical mass on the next idea. - Douglas Crockford

For example?

Just in time to enjoy the now quickly deteriorating quality of Apple's latest MacBooks!

It is my number one concern. If I have to drive a car, or commute for more than 45min, the answer is no. I wish recruiters could get this through their thick skulls.

I would say creating a library that enables a "truer form" of functional programming is probably a pretty good enough feature on its own.

currying is properly implemented in ramda, unlike lodash or underscore.

Thank you for this comment...I thought I was going insane for a minute reading the others.

Couldn't agree more

Precisely, every time I go to learn Objective-C/Swift and iOS dev, I feel like I am totally wasting my time.

Not sure why you're being downvoted....this is a direct result of profit first, 10x bullshit.

I agree, specifically with the fact the Angular 2.0 will turn off all the corporate/Java devs and thereby kill itself.

Maybe they use Gulp. I don't even know anymore...

So...is he basically saying it should be more like Angular?
