I think Ember should have been written as a configuration layer on top of Backbone.
Nice topic. You need to have more “radio” discipline – please… would make it much more pleasant to listen to.
I’ve worked with sooooo many pedantic, annoying, argumentative, pompous and arrogant programmers over the past 15 years… I can only hope to never again be forced to listen to one echoing around in a tin can during a podcast. This individual nullifies all of the greatness that JSJabber would otherwise have to offer.
I came here for information about backbone.js and got a podcast with someone, that tried to highjack the topic to advertise ember.
Maybe the title of the podcast should become changed to ember vs. the rest of the world
Completely agree with Justin + Alex. I gave up listening after 17 minutes as I was sick of hearing the whiny defensive ember-obsessed centre-of-the-universe noise interrupting everybody. I still don’t know whether I want to use backbone, but I know I _don’t_ want to use ember. Not surprised the framework is opinionated…
Can anybody recommend another webcast on backbone that isn’t hijacked in this way?
I’m in the same boat as everyone else. I was looking forward to hearing Jeremy speak about Backbone, but after forcing myself past the 15 minute mark I just couldn’t stand Yehuda’s constant interruptions.
