So, you recommend not using a language that's less than a 1.0 because stuff breaks in new releases? Really? :| You can solve lots of real problems with Node, and I'd argue you should do that because even when the APIs break, if your code is well written you should be able to bring it in line fairly quickly by only updating the impacted modules. So, that's not a big deal. In re: libraries, if you're not willing to occasionally fork and upgrade other peopele's libraries, or better yet write your own, then perhaps the problem isn't Node. Not every Software Engineer is cut out to work on the bleeding edge. I would suggest that perhaps you're not one of those engineers, but that doesn't mean that I can't solve real problems with Node.js and love it. I know the title is flamebait, but I've seen that point of view from people who weren't trying to start a flame war, so I figured now was a good time to put in my two cents. :)
