EDIT: I just realized you were replying to the over zealous fellow that replied to me and not me. Sorry. Time for coffee. >You're in a bubble. Come on, I made a qualified statement, I didn't even say most devs. > I've used QBASIC, C, C++, various .NET languages, Java, Python, list goes on and on. I've led desktop app, firmware drivers, kernel driver, security architecture projects, list goes on and on. I have a fairly similar history, ASM, QBASIC, C/C++, Java, Go, .NET (C#/VB), Haskell, Scheme, Prolog etc. I have also worked on systems software and applications. I've worked at consulting firms, fortune 500s and startups and I have to say if you haven't run into my sentiment before commonly, I would assert that it is you who are in the bubble (sorry). I don't think you have to agree with my opinion, but to reject it as being common is absurd. I don't hate JS out of lack of familiarity, in fact I have spent a lot of time porting node apps to Go and discovering all their terrifying callback spaghetti, concurrency bottle necks and inconsistent typing during single variable lifetime.
