But...but...why?
- crimsonalucard 9y agoWhy nodejs? Why why? edit: I would argue that both languages are equally horrible. Yet here we are.

- pluma 9y agoI feel you, brother. There are too many people using crappy languages. If only everybody saw the light and used the only good language out there, Oberon-2.
- crimsonalucard 9y agoI feel your sarcasm. Lets be real though, V8 is a fast implementation but javascript as a language itself separate from implementation is a POS. ES6 and ES7 is proof that ES5 was just plain bad.
- champagnepapi 9y agoI would not say ES6 and ES7 are "proof" that ES5 is bad.

- abritinthebay 9y agoOf course! Just as much the same way that C99 & C11 showed that C++ was just plain bad, yes? Right? Because otherwise you’d be making no sense, and you’d not do that, would you?
- crimsonalucard 9y agoWrong. Javascript was designed in a week. The creator admits it's bad. This is universally known by professional programmers, why are people defending this?
- woah 9y agoEveryone's saying that JS is bad, it's been proven, big league, the most expert programmers use Oberon-2, and believe me that's what we've got here only the most expert legitimate programmers, getting tired of winning.
- crimsonalucard 9y agoSomebody warn this guy, this kind of comment isn't welcome or appreciated here on HN.
- abritinthebay 9y agoSarcasm? Ooo boy you’re on the wrong website then...
- crimsonalucard 9y agoNo. Rudeness in general.
- quicklyfrozen 9y agoIMO, he made a sarcastic reply to your rather rude message. Should I not consider myself a professional developer because I don't find JavaScript bad? In fact, there are parts of it I quite like.
- crimsonalucard 9y agoAre you serious? Please take a look at this message: >Wrong. Javascript was designed in a week. The creator admits it's bad. This is universally known by professional programmers, why are people defending this? That is an opinionated message about a language. I imagine people are taking offense to my opinion, in which case I urge everyone to take a step back and look at the difference between the insulting sarcasm and an extreme opinion. Sometimes circumstance and bias blinds you into taking offense, especially if you're one of those people who only knows javascript. >Should I not consider myself a professional developer because I don't find JavaScript bad? In fact, there are parts of it I quite like. This message illustrates exactly what I'm talking about. When did I say any of this? Did I say you're not a professional developer because you don't find javascript bad? No. I said Professional developers find javascript to be really shitty, and it's quite universally known. My mistake, I should have wrote "Many" professional developers, as you seem to mistook it to be "All" professional developers. Look, there is no denying this fact. A great number of really good developers intensely hate javascript, there's a reason why. I will say this: You are a horrible javascript developer if you do not have the ability to comprehend the bad parts of javascript and why "many" developers find the language so shitty.
