Yeah, but the thing with React is that it's one library, instead of having both Jade and Backbone, you can have a fully React stack and have peace of mind through it.

I've used Jade and honestly prefer the React way for sure because it combines the javascript with the html in the same file(s)

I'm in the same boat, it's just too convenient to read from a Kindle compared to having to hold a paperback while laying in bed. These rules that Amazon imposes on ebooks doesn't really affect me, I purchase the books and I get to read them, that's it.

He reminds me of TJ Hollowaychuk, who singlehandedly wrote most of Express.js. Makes me wonder what the node community would be without him.

My go to stack for personal projects is React Node Postgres, while Meteor looks great I just can't live without the sweet built in postgres features like trigger functions. I'm on the lookout for a rails like framework because right now I tend to code everything by hand. Will give it an honest try once they support MySQL or pgSQL.

Seems like a harmless prank to me.

It's a restriction of the Mac App Store, not the actual Mac computer itself. Mac is just Unix with a pretty UI and lots of features.

I would really like to see React do something like this as a shortcut to having to do map. It would be SO helpful.

React is insanely fun. It's so stress free to code up the frontend of your web app with React because everything is viewed as a component. My friend and I have adopted React and we are still glossing over how great it is.

Well if you think about it, the netflix UI is pretty much a bunch of documents. It's a gallery of images, and each image has its own document.

The DOM is a dinosaur unfortunately, it just gets the job done for most basic websites. CSS is also a language made for the DOM. The thing is, the DOM isn't required for a web page. Netflix could have coded up their entire UI on a Javascript 2D game engine and could have ended up with a faster app for sure. But CSS and the DOM make it much easier to work with text + links, that imo it's worth it for the performance drop of animations.
