Why does everyone want to take all the nice features of javascript, it being so loose and freeform and turn it into Java? I don't need interfaces and classes built into the language. That's why it's so powerful and lightweight. Prototypical!
People keep making the same mistakes, if you let them.
No thanks.

- tlrobinson 14y agoThe static typing is optional. You can be all "loose and freeform" when hacking stuff out, and later add types in to solidify your code and check for errors. It's the best of both worlds, IMHO.
