Shhhh node people still pretend threads don't exist

  Not sure that anybody is "pretending" anything. Seems like you're just going out on a limb to be condescending.

    I hope those kinds of comments do not start making their way towards HN. Reddit is getting so bad lately, an influx is probably due.

  Hmm... can't tell if this is an attempted Node slam, but figured I would add that you can mimic threads / concurrent tasks by utilizing the child_process or cluster modules.

    As a matter of fact, it certainly makes things a fair bit more pleasant than the current state of affairs as they -- shared array buffers -- are another data primitive on top of bidirectionally passing strings/buffers.
