...is like self inflicting pain...why I bothered ... every version has differences... I watched some video tutorial and tried to copy exact things and it doesn't work.. googling provide so many variation on doing the same thing my head spins...

Don't try to learn, try to do something in Angular. There are multiple ways to do same task. It is the beauty of Angular. Angular is the best framework which every web developer should use.

Framework, shamework! Just because you can do anything with it, doesn't make it good. If we really wanted to be do anything and everything with a language we'd still all be using machine code.
If an upper level language works through obfuscation and misdirection, I propose that it is not fit for purpose. the reason we need the likes of Angular is to work around the difficulty of using Javascript to perform anything beyond the most fundamental task.
Angular is a part of the problem and not the solution!

Exactly!! I agreed to your point. I am saying don't learn angular because someone use it or suggest it, try to do your task in angular if you feel it suited for your application.
BTW, I was also not using angular past 3 years (even I have not tried to learn it, because I hate complexity and love simplicity)  . But for one of the my app, it does excellent job.

That is a very subjective opinion. Angular is good, and a lot of people love it. But there's no scientific way to classify it as the best JS framework out there.

Yes it is my personal experience/opinion.

You expected a smooth learning curve from a product called Angular? 
I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!

Good one....

Do you subscribe to PluralSight? They have an excellent course video targeted at .NET developers wanting to use Angular.

Yes that is what I am doing...

Hi All,
Some of you may remember I am in a state of Contract/semi-contract with a company. The question I would like to ask is do you think it's reasonable to continue on with this project (it is quite interesting...) and talk to them about specs, rate of pay, tax, National Insurance stamp. The Spec I was given was to 'automate the test', this while vague spec is something I have worked to before so had a rough plan in mind... When he saw today's update 'well not much has changed' I have had a mare due to GDI shapes getters & setters and the like, which got sorted on Saturday by my flatmate as we were waiting for another friend to celebrate his birthday (or 41st trip around the Sun, as he called it!  ). True the south west of the UK has low salaries but I was working on a low contract rate per hour  . This role would seem to be a little odd... mind you I was not expecting much more.

Do you have a contract with these people or are you working ad-hoc without pay until they decide you are worth paying to keep? I seem to recall you were asked to do some free work to prove your worth? Is that the case?
|
|

Well, no I don't have a written contract but they have paid me once, so I believe that makes me a contractor under UK tax law. Mind you the thing I thought was funny I keep hearing about how they were surprised at my electronics knowledge when I said I measured the output of one of the boards I was working with to find the output voltage to see if it was open collector outputs. <'moan'> I was supposed to know this from the circuit diagram which I did not have to hand, the voltage to switch was applied to the 'Clamp' input of the board <\'moan'>.

It's more than twenty years ago that I worked with electronics but I really thought open collectors was something of the past.

I must admit it is a bit old school, things have changed a bit.

It's cheap, not terribly susceptible to ESD, for slower speeds it works fine. If it ain't broke...

Cheap, yes, ESD, depends on the device family but generally safe, Slower speed, get left in a cloud dust by passing tortoises. If it ain't broke...don't bother fixing it!

It is the simplest method to pass digital signals to circuits running at a different voltage level.
Status output lines of intergrated circuits are often OC. So there is no current draw when unused and they can drive higher currents than a normal output (e.g. for a LED).

Good point!

A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it is written on...
You have nothing except a tax bill to pay...
My advice (as someone who contracted for over 20 years in the UK) is to not let people take the piss - as long as you volunteer your time, they'll keep stealing it.
If I have misunderstood your situation, I apologise but my strong advice is to stay away form non-paying gigs unless you don't need the money or it after paying work and you want the experience.

True. Very true, but the issue I was having was nothing to do. The thing that got to me was being told 'someone' (I think I know who it was!) wrote an application that did what he wanted (not the task I was given) in four hours. He could ask what was wanted.  . Sorry I wanted a winge!!

Having also contracted in the UK, I would have thought there were enough Agencies around to find the job you want and like. (Mind you, I have been retired for the last 5 years.) Have you tried them?
|
|
|
|
|
Oh yes, there are. However the jobs are all over the country, I grabbed this role as it seemed local and very convenient. Also the agencies you speak of are staff by a mix of trolls and insurance sales people...
