"It's official, USA has the most programmers on earth"
When really, it's just that they answered this particular online poll on this website popular in the USA.
"JavaScript, the most poorly documented language on earth." Because, well, it probably is. You don't go to a central JavaScript reference guide, you google for stuff. Or maybe you're unemployed and have time to answer polls on websites.
- smt88 11y agoMDN documentation is excellent. Node also now has pretty good docs. Googling vs. central docs is more driven by the culture of the programmers. Google's search algorithms also have most of the blame for driving searchers to blogs/articles/SO instead of central docs. I do agree that this survey is not at all representative, which is why I decided to flag OP.
