Ah, the "modern web". Where hipsters have to take something that was perfectly fine and ruin it by re-implementing it badly in the latest fad language. Love it!

- thegeomaster 12y agoI feel ya. And Javascript is ugly, I personally would never use it if I didn't absolutely have to. What's more, Node.js code tends to look horrible with all the callback indentation and spaghetti. An async server's programming environment and style could have been done way more gracefully.
- thathonkey 12y agoJavascript isn't really a fad. Server-side JS isn't going to be a fad either, hate to break it to you.
- romanovcode 12y agoJust like RoR wasn't a fad? It's practically gone nowadays because most RoR devs switched to NodeJs.
- thathonkey 12y agoJavaScript has quite a few advantages compared to RoR (eg. it will forever be the language in browser, hence if you choose Node then you are using the same language on both sides. This is the main reason I think it won't be a fad like Ruby. Also Node is way faster than RoR on average). So no, nothing like that.
