Just because it can't be forced down our throat doesn't mean it's not uncomfortable that Google's trying.


When did Google try to force Dart down your throat? Just because Angular is being ported to Dart? Seriously? Are you saying that Dart developers don't deserve Angular?


Way I see it, no one deserves the misfortune of Angular. ;)


Like I said, "You have a right to be revolted by it." But, I think it would probably be a better use of your time to be uncomfortable over things like hunger and disease than a company trying to promote a new programming language to further its self interest - that's what companies do.


You have a right to be revolted by peoples' revulsion, which you are presently executing quite well.

I don't have a problem with that, I just think you're loudly complaining about how loud everyone is. ;)


Actually you're right, that's exactly what I'm doing. It's like when people are loudly talking in a library and you loudly go "shushhhh!"


...Did it work?

Hint: you're not in a library, you're in a discussion thread.


"Working" in this instance would be convincing others not to complain. I have no way of measuring that outcome. I tried, my effort got some exposure, so perhaps I can h o p e that I convinced at least one person. Clearly, I failed with you though :)


:D
