I like the neon sign comment. Emacs is beautiful because it is raw simple and powerful. In architecture this is called brutalism. A lisp serves it well because it is in some sense the most brutalist high level language. JS on the other hand is anything but. In comparison to lisp it is Y2K

- medo-bear 3y agoI was stuck for words. But 2000AD to me was a period of bloated superficial high tech, which is my view of js
- worthless-trash 3y agoSounds accurate.
