[dba-Tech] Google's Dart

 HI Jim --

> Maybe your future on the net is Microsoft's Visual Studio or is it Google's Dart?
Both. But I'd bet on Visual Studio and Javascript and asm.js ( http://asmjs.org/spec/latest/ ). And I also like and I do plan to start using Adobe CC set of web development tools. :)

Here is an interesting article on DART evolution and perspectives in ECMA standardization and becoming a mainstream technology -  http://www.sdtimes.com/content/article.aspx?ArticleID=67591&page=1

I'd bet on (near future) browsers  - all to have VMs for JavaScript, C#, DART, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, ... .

I can be wrong but DART is currently looking as a step back to the compile time - static programming languages, while e.g. C# is evolving in the direction of dynamic languages, and has JIT special technologies to make even dynamic (late-binding) programming constructions to get JIT compiled and to be run as fast as compile time (C/C++, Pascal, Fortran, COBOL, ...) do.

It seems promising but I am always concerned when a company feels that it is in such a position of power that it is capable of forcing the market to comply with its objects. (The whole industry has already been set back a number of years as before another company decided it could rule them all and they could create standards without consultation.)
