I'd say the problem is people expecting that any new technology is revolutionary.

  Or expecting that new things will work with everything immediately, and be perfect. His main gripe here is that the server's javascript and the browsers' javascript isn't 100% the same, and that current libraries don't run on both. Jeez, give it some time. Or better yet, work on it.

  I think the underlying problem is programmers who aren't very good at programming. That means they're constantly on the look out for some magic potion that will make it easier for them. Of course some things do make it easier - frameworks, libraries etc. But they often only make it easier at the start before your project gets complex and needs custom out of the box things. Programmers should just knuckle down and try to improve their skills rather than chasing the latest fads.
