I'm sorry but this is one of the most ridiculously vacuous, self-aggrandising pieces of nonsense I have ever seen submitted to HN. Even more so when it's just another framework, and not really even a particularly popular or revolutionary one. Pushing boundaries like travelling across the sea to an almost entirely unknown continent with little to no chance of return regardless of what you find there? Please. I think we need to stand back and take a deep breath.

- ahawkins 13y agoNah I'm the author :)
- delambo 13y agoAgreed. I was laughing out loud at some of the analogies, but the author does make some good points -- it's really early in the client side framework evolution.
- ahawkins 13y agoI was afraid it would come off like this. I picked the analogy and went with it.
- psycr 13y agoDon't worry about it. The commenter here is wrong in assuming that using history to understand our own narrative implies something about the scale or scope of the original, or our own. Events need not be the same for us to try to use them to understand and vocalize our experiences. Great writeup! Some days I feel similarly about Ember.
- ahawkins 13y agoThanks. I'm glad you enjoyed the post.
- ynniv 13y agoAny positive post about Ember seems to be float higher on the front page than it deserves...
- machty 13y agoEh, so does any angular post on the omg power of directives.
