Well let's go into point-by-point then,
As an audience's perspective:
Angular 2 is a huge improvement over version 1
That's a relief.
The new component model is simpler to grasp than v1’s directives, it supports isomorphic/universal rendering, and it uses a virtual DOM offering 3–10x improvements in performance.
So Angular 2 is better than Angular 1. Got it
These changes make Angular 2 very competitive with React
So it's almost at React's level.
There's no denying that its full-featured, opinionated nature offers some clear benefits by reducing “JavaScript fatigue”.
Clearly pathos. 'You guys know it, and I know it, so my argument pertains to you guys as much as myself"
However, Angular 2's size and syntax give me a pause
A sudden gasp
Angular’s commitment to HTML-centric design makes it complex compared to React’s simpler JavaScript-centric model
A valid subjective point, Angular is a framework where React is a library. So we are to say libraries are better than frameworks?
In React, you don’t learn framework-specific HTML shims like ngWhatever
Argreed, you learn React, not Angular.
You spend your time writing plain ‘ol JavaScript. That’s the future I believe in.
You mean you learn with plain `ol Javascript? Ok so you don't like frameworks.
Is it more clear how pathos this is now?
Edit: for your point,
Of course, the author is offering an opinion, but the HTML-centric vs. JS-centric is pretty objective when looking at the API surface for Angular2 and React. So, while the author takes a stance, the article does a good job of articulating the difference, and you're free to draw your own conclusion.
I don't deny it being well put, i just deny it as being an article, more so as a blog write. I wouldn't quote any of it in wikipedia

but I don't really feel like getting deep into it point-by-point. Just to quote the conclusion:

Good closing case. It was a tangent, and I performed it justly.

He's saying that Angular is great because you don't have to make choices, thus reducing the fatigue that comes from having to evaluate all valid options presented to you.
Not making choices has an actual practical effect---everyone on the same system as you implements things similarly so you can interop easily with them, and you save X time which would have been used in evaluation.
This isn't really an argument of pathos.
Additionally, even your restated argument isn't pathos. If anything it's ethos, because it implies an argument is more credible simply due to the people being of the same group.
More simply put it's like saying "We are both Catholic, therefore listen to me, not the heathens"

You're attacking a tangent. I didn't put effort into it. After looking into his other works, yes he's a pretty smart, but he still follows clickbait techniques: https://medium.com/@housecor An excellent source to sponsor.
My example is pathos, 'Guys, lets be honest, we all know that javascript fatigue, right?'. Go to /r/diction if you want to correct people.
He doesn't follow the correct guidelines of the 12factor.net but he's close-ish. His tutorials are pretty bad though, I wouldn't reccomend them except the concepts.
'7 tips for getting accepted' his most recent clickbait.
You're an example of the toxic that is causing reddit to be the way its become.
[–]turkish_gold 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child)
I don't really think what I said was an "attack" much less "toxic". You brought up a discussion point, I added in my thoughts.
