Coming from someone that has used neither framework, I like the write up w/ examples. However, I wasn't convinced that "it's not even close" so maybe a bad title choice.
- jergason 13y agoI agree. The article is a reasonable discussion of the differences between the two frameworks from the perspective of an experienced Ember user, and does a decent job illustrating why Robin prefers Ember. The title is argumentative and inflammatory. I think lots of people will read the title on Twitter and roll their eyes at the Ember attack-marketing machine when the article itself contains some valuable points.
- raganwald 13y agoYou are absolutely correct. I realize I'm in the minority, but I take all blog titles with a bushel of rock salt. Probably because I like to have my own little jokes when I write titles, so I try to ignore what they appear to say and use them only to decide whether to read the post, not to decide whether the post is any good.
- zwily 13y agoThe title doesn't actually indicate which one wins, so at least those Twitter users would have to read the first couple sentences before clicking away...
- EvilTrout 13y agoI went back and forth on the title. I don't usually write sensational titles but for some reason decided to give it a try. I think it's a very good point and I doubt I'll do it again.
- raganwald 13y agoIt could be worse. One fellow I know wanted to write about the benefits of significant whitespace, and thought it would be funny to call his essay "White Power." I doubt he'll try that again. ;-)
- gilrain 13y ago"Ember vs AngularJS: I Prefer Ember and Feel that I Have Compelling Reasons for That Preference" is a bit longer, though.
- steveklabnik 13y agoWould it be on the top of HN if it had a more reasonable title? Is the audience just as complicit as the author in trending towards flamebait?
- Buttons840 13y agoI was interested in the Ember vs Angular comparison regardless of the title. Also, I've enjoyed EvilTrout blogs in the past.
