The author magnificently understates how useful closures can be.
Besides this, the author has posted a single complaint about the language (one that I don't find particularly important) and then seems to act as though the language is completely unusable.

I know you probably know this but first class functions aren't closures. The wikipedia article for them doesn't even mention closures: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-class_function
- anc2020 18y agoThis is a post about JavaScript as a whole, and so I can only hope he meant "first class functions and closures". If he didn't, well that would be even more worrying.
