I'd say this "difficult-to-debug" attitude comes from those who did not actually tried to work with CoffeeScript and just think that would be the case. We have a lot of code in it already and debugging was never an issue.

Sorry, but wouldn't that defy the purpose? You can only use JavaScript client-side, and I assume it would take a lot of time, effort, and "why" to make browsers ship parsers for other languages.

I'd hardly characterise coffeescript generated js as difficult to debug (even the OO flavoured bits). My experience and that of most others I've seen online is that the mapping from the js that you debug back to the coffeescript that generated is trivially done in your head.

As someone who barely knows any JavaScript, but want to learn CoffeeScript (I know ruby, and they are similar), even I can do this.

I guess Adobe Flash is. /s

CCCP, I guess.

Heard about Meteor.js?

No website can be blocked. If they think they blocked any, they are only fooling themselves.

I can write a scrapper for any text-based website within an hour. As far as I know, site scrapping can't be prevented. You could make it harder, though.

Guess I won't be able to download that awesome AC/DC song then.

The items in question are still there, it's just the name itself that is getting formatted.

Side note: Why are the post that are giving apple the benefit of the doubt of this being a mistake getting downvoted? Really guys?

Or the Thin Lizzy song. Or the albums of the same name. Or the TV series.

AC/DC isn't on the iTunes store anyways. One of the few holdouts.
