I just wanted to point out that the code (I know, it's not about the code) here is perfectly fine JavaScript, much, much better than tons of JS I saw in the wild. "eyes bleed"? What the heck? Have these guys never seen truly bad code? And if it's really just about language war...
Look, I understand that one can prefer one language over another, but trashing the code someone already written (meaning you won't be forced to write this thing in this language if the need be) is so short-sighted, so closed-minded that I can't find proper words to describe it.
I almost refuse to believe that this is the kind of people who are the "stars" of communities - I really thought that to be really good with one language you need to know and respect many others and I thought that being a "star" involves being being good in the language you want to champion. I guess I was just deluded and we're choosing those who yell the loudest as our representatives. Whatever happened to meritocracy?
