Holy shit these articles are truly tiresome. I am learning Javascript in 2016. I also learned it in 1998. It was a simpler time back then, sure, BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T DO MUCH. Rollovers, alerts, scroll some annoying text in the status bar of a browser. This was about the extent of it. I can do SO MUCH COOL STUFF with 2016 Javascript. Much of it comes with a complexity cost, but of course I'm free to code "raw" Javascript in the browser just like I used to. Instead, I choose to learn some new tooling, because the leverage it gives me to execute my ideas is worth the effort.
