I think the blogs comments regarding javascript are less true then that regarding shell as javascript is becoming a core language no longer only active in the web "glue language" domain. In the web context within HTML it maybe but in terms of mobile development using tools such as titanium/appcelerator or developing things in node.js, this requires javascript not as just a glue language but as the core. In terms of shell, yeh, I think it still applies cause to this day i havn't seen anyone write a fully blown program completely in shell (thought that could just be me). What i noticed in all the places i have worked at, when the shell script/program starts to get to large its usually slowly migrated to perl or <insert persons fav scripting language here>.
