Avoid duplication across multiple pages, e.g. top navigation, footer etc. Note how "Notes" and "People" are separate pages. Angular is sufficient for single-page apps, so if you want to put all your logic on a single page you won't need Jekyll.

Very cool. Would love to see this generalized to an interactive visualization of Markov Decision Processes (MDPs).

Very cool! I just built and deployed a real-time voting app in literally 10 minutes.

Love it!

I started creating a new course, how can I split the code across multiple files?

Regarding the last point: true, drivers would have to be required to dash-mount their smartphones in a similarly fashion. This setup would certainly be much safer than the current one, where they’re paying attention to a mounted GPS and their non-mounted smartphone running the Uber app.

Also – maybe at some point in the future, the Uber driver’s app can run directly on the car’s on-board computer system – now that would be nice, wouldn’t it?

My blog post was meant as a feature suggestion by a happy Uber customer, not in a condescending way at all. By no means I meant to imply that I have "thought more about this than Uber has".

Interesting! So basically they already have that feature (except for the gps integration), you just have to know about it.

try again?

Huh? Looks like HN front-page traffic killed my server. Rebooting...

Thanks for all the great feedback! I've updated the blog post with some of the key points from this discussion.

I certainly agree with the latter point if adding a default/out of the box JSON serialization does indeed add significant overhead, impacting all users including those which don’t require it. On the flipside, if a cost-effective solution can be found – e.g. by providing a default JSON serialization via class annotations – I feel that it should be part of Dart’s core and not up to individual developers to home-brew their own solution to a very common problem. In the particular case of DateTime, I’m pretty sure that adding a default JSON serialization now will increase interoperability between Dart-based services and sites in the future.

Ah, you're right. Thanks!

Beautiful. Thanks!

Maybe I'm missing something, but yes, I think so. Dart version 0.8.10.3_r29803.

pubspec.yaml:

name: test1 dependencies: browser: any angular: git: https://github.com/angular/angular.dart.git

test1.dart:

import 'package:angular/angular.dart'; main() => ngBootstrap();

dart2js launch => builds test1.dart.js, about 5MB, 142,749 loc.

I like both Angular and Dart, so that's good news.

One thing I noticed though: transpiling a .dart file with just the import statement for AngularDart (import 'package:angular/angular.dart') generates a non-minified 5MB .js file with almost 150 kloc. Every code change will create a new version of it, invalidating previously cached versions. :/

Glad it boots to desktop, not metro.
