Yeah sure, it's basically memoization applied to processes & distributed across the cloud

We saved 2 centuries of compute time by applying caching

I'm a core team member of Nx (nx.dev) and one of the core features we implemented quite a while ago, is "computation caching". Basically to speed up things, we get all the input to a given computation, which our case as a devtool means running your Jest tests, Webpack/esbuild/... build etc, and cache the result (logs & potential build artifacts).Next time when the same computation is run,...

ah...finally, someone that gets it and says it aloud...if I would have found this comment before, I wouldn't have put mine further below. Thx!

Nowadays: want lots of traffic on your blog -> rant about Angular.

The problem is just that you're nearly a year too late.

- yep angular has flaws (which framework doesn't?)

- ya, it does dirty checking and yes, that might have perf implications if used the wrong way. But hey, 6 years ago when Angular was created it was a revolutionizing idea, and still holds today. Also, at that time no Objecte.observe existed, nor did SPAs really (well..GWT was kinda the solution at that time). But, did u check what they're doing in Angular 2? Heard about RxJS and stuff?

- DI: strange syntax techniques to work around minifiers? You don't really use those, do u? heard about ngAnnotate?

- Oh...AMD, UMD etc...do not dependency injection. And yes, agree, DI together in combination with AMD/UMD/... creates confusion with newbie frontend developers

- Then: Angular 2 is already live on GitHub, for a while; has even it's own webpage online

- and for god's sake..Angular 2 is compatible with Angular 1...read their blog posts, their Tweets, weekly meetup notes and design docs (all openely available on GDocs)

- oh..and there are even some rumors server-side rendering will be possible in ng 2

I like ur blog, but if you go and rant, please check the latest status, inform yourself, then rant. Nothing against critics, they foster discussion, but only if made properly.

Nice article! Just linked it in my recent post about getting started with ES2015: http://juristr.com/blog/2015/08/jump-start-es2015/

Thx

haha, that's what I thought as well...just that it isn't April 1st..

Nice, when I open one of the demo apps (http://foam-framework.github.io/foam/foam/apps/todo/Todo.htm...) on my mobile (Chrome beta), all I see is a small "f".
Re:2 years with Angular on Tuesday November 25, 2014 @02:52AM (#8656781)
Interesting. I recently heard in a Podcast that Misko Hevery (a Googler) created Angular as his 20% project with the scope to make it easier for web designers to create dynamic prototypes.

The video is quite impressive, only for the call stack improvements you can get by using it. What's particularly cool is that it is framework agnostic.

So far I didn't use it, but will definitely try it out.

Re:C# Tutorials on Tuesday February 04, 2014 @03:39AM (#7176199)
In fact, there's written "Visual Studio .Net 2003", so pretty outdated I'd say. There are no references about Lamda expressions, LINQ, dynamic support, async support and all the other awesomeness C# gives.
Re:Sails.js | Realtime MVC Framework for Node.js on Monday September 09, 2013 @03:52AM (#6352303)
Yep, I played around a couple of hours yesterday and it is amazing how quickly you get up to speed (some basic NodeJS knowledge is obviously required). I'm trying to build some single-page app prototype, so I'll see how it performs once things get a little more complex.

But I generally like how it approaches policies, data store abstraction and seemless REST http and real-time socket routing. Awesome stuff.

Very nice additions.

However, I wonder how long it'll take till we can actively use them in production code...
