Ask HN: Which job should I choose?

I need to make a decision in the next 8hrs and i need help to decide which choice would be better for me and my career.

The first company is developing software for airline companies and they have a few big clients. The tech i would be working in is Angular, Backbone, Cordova and some PHP.

The second company is into IT security. They develop tools for malware detection and network security. The tech i would be using is JavaScript, jQuery and Kendo UI. I would mostly be building charts in the beginning but there is a possibility of getting a bit more into actual software development later.

Both companies are good standing and the pay is about the same (the IT security company is offering a little bit more). I like the tech the first company is using more, but i'm more interested in IT security than airline software.

Please help me decide, i have 8hrs, what would be better for my career and what branch do you think has a better future?
