The author has failed to put any effort into trying to prove his assertion that the language is at fault. I've seen bad code in all sorts of languages. A rewrite will naturally produce cleaner code, so I don't see how this proves anything about the language itself.
Despite this, there is some truth to the assertion that JavaScript projects can be unwieldy. The main issue with large scale JavaScript development is the lack of a built in module system. The naive style of using a global namespace and script tags is prone to resulting in difficult to maintain code. Thankfully there are frameworks that can solve this issue.
