I 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.

I 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.

  I would not say ES6 and ES7 are "proof" that ES5 is bad.

  Of 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?

    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?

      Everyone'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.

        Sarcasm? Ooo boy you’re on the wrong website then...

        No. Rudeness in general.

        IMO, 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.

        Are 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.

      Ah so it’s time that makes it good huh? Clearly ALGOL68 is the best language as it took 9 years to design, yes? Right? Because otherwise you’d be making no sense, and you’d not do that, would you?

        Could you please not be so rude? This is not how insightful discussions proceed.
        abritinthebay 9y ago
        I was repeating myself as a rhetorical device. If we're talking about rude you should talk to the parent poster.
        crimsonalucard 9y ago
        You are being rude and offensive and using sarcasm to insult my intelligence. If I am ever rude it's in response to your rudeness. You and I are both biased since we are participating in a hostile argument. When the third party says you're rude you're most likely being rude. Don't let bias blind you to your own actions, look at what I wrote and look at what you wrote and think carefully on whether my opinion on javascript is insulting to the language or to you personally... Than examine your sarcasm... is that a direct insult to me, or an opinion on a topic... I think the answer is fairly obvious and the answer is... you are the one being rude.
