Not at all. The impression given by the title is that it's going to be obscure electronic music, which I thought would be excellent. I was pretty shocked to hear what came out of the speakers when clicking through. I didn't realise when I

Without wanting to get into genre wars, you clearly have no idea what you're talking about. There's a brand of music at the moment calling itself 'tech house', but it's basically also pop-garbage like the stream from the OP. Tech-house as

I click on 'House' and it plays Dubstep, and then cheesy trance, followed by more of the same cheese. It's just pop-music basically. I don't mean to bitch, but to claim "Discover the best Electronic Dance Music you probably have never hea

It strikes me that there's a much simpler solution, and that is to use TypeScript. It has all the VS intellisense that's required and none of the boilerplate in the OP's solution. http://www.typescriptlang.org

You could just go and change it manually, it's just a source file. It also sounds like they're open sourcing the lot...

The difference is you can't use 3rd party libraries in CS or Dart unless you create some kind of wrapper for them. TS allows you to use any JS library off the bat. If you want stronger type checking the you can define an interface to the l

This looks very interesting indeed. I particularly like the fact that they're not trying to replace JS by using it as a compiler for a higher level language (as with Coffee Script, Dart etc.), and also I like how they've retrofitted the in

What have they removed? Things might be structured slightly differently, but I only see additional features and improvements.

I totally agree. I thought the developer preview was a bit flaky, the left/right-scrolling start-screen was too jolting for example (so it was good to see that's been replaced with a fade-in/out). Having now installed the RTM I really rat
