I would recommend the JS Jabber from this week over this blog post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3587689

Jeremy & Yehuda touch on most of the issues in this post and you can hear the points directly from their POV rather than filtered through someone else.

Additionally it's interesting to hear that Jeremy & Yehuda are at odds (philosophically) on several other issues which I think help to round out the ideas behind Backbone, Ember, and other projects both of them are involved in.
