Most of the nodejs success stories I've read have taken a serial, blocking system and made it parallel and non-blocking. The wins in this context are hardly surprising, and say little about the value of nodejs specifically.
- dllthomas 13y agoThat the latter is idiomatic use of nodejs may itself be of value.
- jamesaguilar 13y agoIt's idiomatic in a bunch of languages. There are also good ways to do blocking IO. "We remove the capability to use an entire category of IO" is probably the weakest feature claim of any language out there.
- dllthomas 13y agoSure. I never made any claim that it unique, or that nodejs is great generally.
