Warning: The tech content in this article contains pure magic fucking awesomeness on environmentally friendly steroids

For years, web application developers have used DOM manipulation tools like jQuery to control their user interface. Astute developers have taken it to the next level with client-side templating tools like Mustache.js and Handlebars.js to build sophisticated user interfaces on the client side.

And then AngularJS came along.

And we all realized we’ve been doing it wrong.

Way wrong …

AngularJS is too humble to say you’re doing it wrong

Code, in the financial perspective, is more like a liability than an asset.

The more code produced, the more liability you have to bear burden, and the more substantial cost of ownership.

Successful investment is about having more tangible asset and carrying less liability. So if code is liability, the less code, the better. The best code is NO code all.

Creative agency DDB China put together this project in Shanghai to urge people to do their bit and help the environment by walking more and driving less.

By laying a huge canvas with a leafless tree on the road, pedestrians were encouraged to walk across sponge cushions soaked in green environmentally friendly washable and quick dry paint in turn rendering footprint leaves on the tree. Each green footprint added to the canvas like leaves growing on a bare tree, which make people feel that by walking they could create a greener environment.

More walking, less driving. Let's create a greener environment together.

Why credit rating that Australia on the top of the world

Reshared post from +The Economist

Daily chart: The assessment of a country’s creditworthiness is an art, not a science; a government’s willingness to pay may be just as important as its ability to do so. It is not hard to see why Australia, with a debt-to-GDP ratio of 27.1% and a small current deficit, is rated triple-A by the main ratings agencies. Today’s interactive table shows the financial indicators and long-term credit ratings of selected countries. View here:  http://econ.st/VdYPwA

The interface between computer and human beings evolution starts from punched card and tape in very old time, to keyboard and mouse yesterday, touchscreen today, wearable devices like Google Glass and iWatch in voice control tomorrow. 

In near future most likely human would be totally naked – with bare hands making gesture and eyeballs movement to instruct computer what to do.
