Pointless reply -- honestly, this is why I only use laptops nowadays. Built in UPS. And quieter than a desktop box, more transportable, and certainly with enough computing power for what I do. Granted, more expensive, but the pros balance the additional cost.

The way they are selling it is ....
If you're not a big fan of change, there's probably a great future for you in any other industry besides technology. Fortunately, change keeps things interesting. With new updates coming to Angular, it's time to get ready (yet again). This time, the updates won't be as dramatic, but you can stay ahead of the game and join our live webinar with experts Alyssa Nicoll and Sergio Cruz on March 9.

What happened to 3? And I still keep seeing articles for version 2.

"Interesting" is when I can rely on a technology being stable enough for a couple years to do something interesting with it.
What you're talking about falls under the category of "abuse."

We went from Angular 1 to Angular 2, and it was a total breaking change, with new APIs, new patterns.
Internally at Google, the Angular team uses a tool for handling automatic upgrades, even of breaking changes. This is still something that has to be planned in more detail, but the team is working hard on making this tool generally available, most probably in 2017 in time for version 5.
There's a lot of other decent frameworks to choose from without going through that pain, and if in my not-so-humble opinion, if you're going to make a "total breaking change", the tools to upgrade should have been the top priority and made "generally available" from the get-go.
Version 5? WTF.

I agree. I should probably get back to use knockout instead.

This is the main reason why I hold off my angular 2 article series. I hope the conversion isn't going to be painful. finger's crossed!

After you learned the core angular v1.x, angular v10.x will be out.

So few months back A2 was the new and the thing. Now it is 4. If my mathematics is correct, in next few months, they will release 8 and then 16 and so on.

They stated, that Angular 2 is ready for the enterprise... Here the proof that it is not!
Enterprise if for decades and you can not base your product on something that can not be trusted not to break existing code... and with Angular we have a bad record...
(An interesting fact. Telerik, a supplier of UI - and related - components will release its Angular 2 package on the very same month Angular 4 will be out... Telerik packages are commonly made of 70+ components, but the Angular 2 release will contain only about 25, as the release actually about the finished internals and not about the finished package. They expect to finish all the components in 18 months, when all he fanboys will declare it outdated)

The rate at which new versions of almost everything are churned out is crazy. It would be nice to have some stability.
I'm not convinced that these new technologies are better either. From what I've seen in our dev teams web development is now more frustrating than before and takes longer than it used to.

That's remarkably similar to what I keep hearing from winio fanbois.
My response is the same, then: change has to be for the better.

How often have I heard that by now?
"It's the future. Keep up or you will be left behind."
That's ok. It's not the first 'future' to go down the tubes and being left behind is ok as long as everybody else seems to be running in circles.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

There's such a great solution to these types of events.
When I use javascript, it's just plain javascript. Same for php.

Yeah, with Angular 2 not even ready for production, I think I'll stick with my legacy v1 for a bit.

Nonsense. There are dozens of browsers that can handle it just as well or better.
