My last gig forced us to use Asana for ticketing (!!!). It's meant as a Basecamp-like tool but I'm not sure if it delivers on that either. Currently we use Confluence for documenta…

I always ask this of full-stack/backend devs who shit on frontend: show us what you've managed to build with that attitude.

Maybe we're both misunderstanding, but I think they meant "User Experience". Surely you agree that this is an important consideration in software development?

To contribute some anecdotal findings to the larger IT discussion in the thread, a lot of it comes down to this IMHO... There are three levels of understanding of personal computer…

Not that I think OP is very good, but '31201 bytes' has little to do with UI, unless you are talking about the specific use case of a slow connection.

what exactly is not cool about that?

lol, everyone be sure to check out NYT on Glassdoor before applying.

Also, when the dinosaur is fighting the Nazi robot, the Swastika flips sides. Boy, I sure hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

Take a wild guess. (hint: they're dumb)

Lateness is often considered rude because it shows you don't care about something. If this is a situation where that assumption is correct, then it's time to move on to a new job. …

The author is pretty open about this not being anywhere near ready. It would be better if they were open about the possibility of this loophole being patched up in the spec, making…

You can put "C developer" on your resume, good luck shopping around "Typescript developer" experience.

No, that's Angular that has the perf issues.

- Not-so-great documentation. - Lengthy learning curve. - Not concerned with performance at all (can be a nightmare on mobile devices with low RAM). - Google's history of throwing …

As if we didn't have enough reason to move on from Angular. Now you need to learn Typescript to contribute or grok the source files?

Not at all, the author praises Backbone. The learning curve, busted syntax, and performance issues unfortunately ARE specific to Angular, that's the entire point of the article.

"generic disagreement with browser-side rendering" re-read the article. Author has no issue with Ember or Backbone.

Not if you're in an environment (like mobile) where you want to reduce repaint.

So is it the obvious usability fail that this statement would seem?

In some apps, yes, but in many others they are just as atrocious as they've always been—just adhering to material design a bit more. For example, Chrome on iOS has a pretty wonderf…

Many of these are: 1) Much less legible, and in some cases outright lazy 2) Extremely vulnerable to Javascript's fast-and-loose type checking. However it's good to be AWARE of them…

What? Care to give some context for discussion instead of promoting your site?

Yes you should use it. We name feature branches after JIRA tickets for accountability and transparency. It's made tracking branches and tickets associated with them super easy and …

"...if you don’t want to get shot, tased, pepper-sprayed, struck with a baton or thrown to the ground, just do what I tell you." Is this satire? How can anybody hold this viewpoint…
