Unfortunately it is part of their push to lock down the web. Lock it down to legacy languages - JavaScript and HTML. Transpilation is of course not an answer, because it is not nearly same development experience. I hope mainstream platform

But it seems people capable of modern way of thinking start to emerge, e.g. Tim Sweeney of Epic Games: "– Will gladly sacrifice 10% of our performance for 10% higher productivity" http://www.cs.princeton.edu/~dpw&#

This is so true! When this type of developers starts talking about design of the architecture they start discussing optimization on second minute. Here is a good example (it's a good blog and people are talented though): http:/&#

There is a whole business of 'integrating' the software products that are kind of ready (much more so than OSS) - ERP (Dynamics, SAP etc.).

"...if only people were not starving in the streets..." You have a bigger problem with IT then investment banking and international politics? I am personally very happy that once in a while engineers are getting a kind of fair d

Yep, not so relevant now given the announcements since then.

"to the best developer tools" - a bit far-fetched for very many of those.

When I said "managed" I actually meant "first-class CLR/JVM/Mono support".

by CmonDev 12y ago
Yes, when thinking about a modern managed multi-paradigm, multi-typed, multi-platform language the choice is pretty much limited to Scala, C# and F#.

If you mention that Angular was built by Google devs, then please mention that MVVM was invented by Microsoft devs (WPF): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Model_View_ViewModel

Forgotten? This is the fifth time this year alone I am reading about both (Hopper is a bit overrated and part of military propaganda). Besides how could someone who knows about Babbage wouldn't know about Lovelace?

Kind of based on an assumption that using JavaScript at all is a good thing. For me the idea is to avoid using it where possible. Can we stop the web monopolisation/locking/despotism and drop specific languages from titles and ide

The only thing sadder would be programming a strong AI or brain-computer interfaces in javascript. Hopefully the disaster will be stopped way before.

In a way any Python program is probabilistic.

I'd like tabs to go around the browser - not just the top edge.

Wow, speech recognition in a Turing-complete language. Amazing.

Well, as long as I don't have to use HTML and JavaScript.

Rust is meant to be practical, Haskell is more for academia (horrible ML syntax etc.).

E.g. iOS lets me use: Objective C, Swift, C#, F#, Java, Scala. All compiling to lower-level code that is either native to platform or native to the language. Web lets me use: only JavaScript (that is written manually or transpiled). Yes I

It's a choice between restricted standards that hinder technology innovation and restricted markets that hinder business. As a technologist I hope that de-facto monopolic legacy poorly-designed technologies (JS and HTML) will give way
