Using any technology in hopelessly idiotic ways when better tools (and more importantly, appropriate tools) exist will turn it to the new [previous-tech-used-in-hopelessly-idiotic-ways].
This dilemma is as old as programming itself and will only go away when we introduce public flogging as punishment* for wrongly applying the "laziness is a virtue" dogma.
* Developers are people too (mostly) and I don't condone public violence against them. Private violence is OK.
- hayksaakian 14y agoPlease recommend a better option for running code in a web browser. ... ... ... There is no php, or rails, or asp alternative here as there is with perl. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the closest thing I've found is 1. NaCl 2...?
- eksith 14y agoThis isn't about running code in the web browser. This is a greater problem of offloading what is better off as being server-side processing on the browser.
- mercurial 14y agoThis comes off as very dogmatic. There are good use cases for single-page or few-pages webapps. I'm likewise more comfortable server-side, but I can understand why you would want this sort of thing.
