I encourage everyone to search in their codebase for "1204", "521" and "265" :)

python 2->3 and angular 1->2 indeed need a different strategy and the strategy varies per case. For Angular both versions will have to be supported (basically just with different directory name) and switch most probably won't happen in terms of single applications, but by writing completely new applications on new stack. Lifespan of web application is rather short, so we can afford this.

We started using ui-router recently and from quick profiling of rendering it looks like a lot of time is spent in ui-router transitions (chained promises) and in generating/validating ui-sref links. I don't know if this will get linearly worse with increasing size of application, but anyway this is why I'm interested in checking out Component Router.

Do you have any pointers to differences between Component Router and ui-router? I'm especially interested in pitfalls of both.

I haven't debugged ui-router much yet, but maybe I'm doing something wrong (which sometimes happens in Angular world, e.g. when people use $timeout(fn), when in given situation they should actually do $timeout(fn,0,false)...).

buberssonon Ask HN: If I were your dream hire, would you hire me? I live in Somalia

This can get a bit tricky, e.g. my 6 semester bachelor degree wasn't enough for US bachelor degree and I had to prove that I had done extra 2 semesters of my master's.

It also depends where you get your Master's. Not all universities require you to write a lot of papers, theses and presentations - some require you to solve problems and learn problem solving (in a form of exams, projects etc.). From my experience universities in Europe need less "paperwork" compared to US. I think it's still important part of knowledge in CS field, but it's about balance and I had experienced a good balance at FIT CTU in Prague.

Wohoo! This is awesome :)

buberssonon Google Inbox

I think it will "sweep" all unpinned emails, but even after the emails have been marked as Done, you can still easily access them by clicking on the bundle (e.g. "Travel").
