Too few sampled comments (5) to say how often HN recommends it.?
Why HN links it
Linked for posts on machine-learning clickbait headline generation (the Click-o-Tron write-up, with source code) and the 'WTF factor' idea for quantifying reactions to products.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 5 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

HN discussionThis is a rehash of the same problems that have been circulating for years [0]. There is literately not a single original thing here. Most of these issues are gotchas that can easily be avoided once the developer is aware of them (such as scope inheritance / dynamic scope which is due to Javascript Prototypal Inheritance [1]). What's ironic is that angular 2 is fully rewritten in part to fix all of these issues, but…

The egghead.io Angular videos also get this wrong. I really think that the vast majority of Angular programmers don't really understand how its scoping works. I've ranted about this before [1], it's just ridiculously complex. Some scopes inherit prototypicall…
