in as much as Javascript has paid my bills. and in as much your child Django is pleasurable to use.
maybe it's time to move on from these languages that lure as into a false sense of productivity.
yeah initially you can move fast.
but after that it's clusterfuck of fighting your environment every 6 months.
syntax wise JS ain't different from modern C++/Rust/Go etc
as an industry we keep fighting nature and not working with nature.
how much money has been spent trying to optimize python, ruby, js build tools / environments etc.
you wouldn't need docker, web ide's and all the other crap if a language could ship a single executable.
if we moved away from dynamic linking that's linked to the 80s thinking of limited storage to static
linking.
whereas going back to saner defaults would've saved
much of this headache.
