I don't usually judge by looks, but you can just tell that Brendan Eich is an insecure fragile person with many mental problems.

I don't know what's worse: The whole anti same-sex marriage deal or inventing Javascript.

Probably Javascript..

Oh he's THAT guy?!

Fuck that guy. He basically is the reason popups was so damn widespread.

JavaScript is also the whole reason that the web is interactive. Without JavaScript the web would be mostly just static pages without any client side dynamic behavior.

Brendan Eich is a tool, but JavaScript is a useful tool, at least.

I think I'd prefer a mostly static web. Guess I should finally check out ublock origins medium mode or whatever its called.

Forms are interactive and dont require me to run your shitty code and execute it on my computer.

Keep that shit running on your server. I dont need another vector for malicious code to run on my machine

If there's no JavaScript, there will be another language developed to fill that void. We don't know whether it'll be better or not. But with TypeScript, working with JavaScript has been quite painless for me.

JavaScript?

Like, we use JavaScript everywhere.
