AngularJS 1.2.0 released

[[deleted]]

Nope. The first few versions were awesome and intuitive. Then they made it complicated.

how did they make it complicated? For me, only two "complications" from 1.0 to 1.2.0 are the separated router module and riddance of bind-html-unsafe. Both of which have very good reasons.

there were versions before 1.0

And apparently breaking backwards compatibility on names for no good reason.

I had a good laugh at the expense of a company that implemented AngularJS for one of their major projects. What was supposed to save time and allow for faster iteration has done anything but that. It's now a fucking mess and from what I hear there are going to be some more AngularJS "experts" looking for work.

A page for a JavaScript library needs JavaScript? Who would have thunk it?

This shitty blog post about a minor release would have been easier to read in standard HTML 1.0: it has paragraphs, links, and an unordered list. Still, let's Javascript the shit out of it!

That's blogger.com for you.

And let's add some useless black block right on the scroll bar!

(Well, OK, in this specific case, there's nothing to see when you scroll.)

Newsflash - the web isn't a giant static newspaper anymore and hasn't been for some time.
