How can you refer to Frozenvoid as a moron, when he accomplished all of the following:
1. Proved that 0.999... <> 1
2. Created the only known infinite-compression algorithm
3. Created a self-aware AI that shit-spammed /prog/ for a day or two, making it unusable
Thats more than the average /prog/lodyte accomplishes in a lifetime!
Everyone who knows anything about anything left ages ago. That's the problem with troll posts, especially in an anonymous environment: eventually nobody remembers they're troll posts. New people imitate them thinking they're genuine, and eventually all you have is the new people, who are idiots.

1. Waving your arms and shouting like a retard does not constitute proof.
2. There are plenty of other non-working ``infinite compression" algorithms.
3. That happens every couple weeks.

back then most people like you (aka lamers) used to believe that LISP was actually useful for something, when you realized about the truth a new hype came: le 3l1t0rs antiseminists from cat-v
now ``cool'' people use C and hates OOP
javascript is still a joke to drones who are afraid of the freedom of dynamic typing and the power of the lambda.

1. v8 has made js the fastest dynamic language. within 3x of C
2. browsers are adding typed arrays, canvas/svg, webworkers, and webworkers allowing for some really cool stuff to be made.
3. after 20 years, python still doesnt have a decent networking library. It's easier to write a webserver in C. joyent notices that 99% of software is moving to servers, decides to write a system that embraces this model of tiny services that talk to each other, rather than monolithic frameworks. system cleanly exposes unix API. No object oriented gobbledygook like in twisted, and no monkey patching like in gevent. Huge benefit is that you can now move functionality from client to server. Sharing even 10% of your codebase makes it hugely more productive than any other language. If you want to render on the client for half your users using fast PCs, and on the server for people on windows xp/phones, you don't have to maintain two separate codebases and keep them consistent.
I was always a backend algorithms+systems guy but I have to admit I'm excited about javascript. feel free to call me a hipster or a n00b or whatever.

Wait, you mean the JavaScript shitposter was being serious?
pretty good for a 4 year old compiler
and with typed arrays and web workers, you have fast custom datastructures and threads+message passing. javascript GOTYAY

Have you seen the kind of code the JavaScript benchmarks programs use? It might as well be C. Also, JavaScript is slightly impressive in single-threaded benchmarks but it isn't anywhere else.

"With enough power, even a brick will fly."
JS is shit, but IT CORPORATIONS pushed this bullshit too far.
And ``scripting'' languages like this is fucking shit when even a single typo gives you halting problem-tier bugs, even Scheme at least expects you to define variables. I'd rather compile from a serious language (like Haskell) to JS than deal with JS directly for anything involving more than 300 lines.
>>30
prove me wrong faggot. being able to move and share code between server and client is way bigger than abstract data types or macros or pattern matching or whatever. facebook has 4x more javascript than php. modern clients need data models, routing, rendering and sync code. Good luck trying to maintain two code bases while I iterate twice as fast as you.

The fact that Coffeescript, Dart and Microsoft's TypeScript even exists is proof that writing in JavaScript directly is foolish. Its like writing in x86 assembly. 1-2-3 at its peak was written directly in x86 assembly, where is it now? Code written in JavaScript itself will eventually be undone in a similar fashion.

FIOC, Perl and sepples are more interesting than JavaScript.

Lol. If there's one thing that JavaScript has proved once and for all, it's that static typing is dead. Haskell is a joke and Java is finally on its way to dying. The next 10–15 years will be all dynamically typed languages, bet on it bro.
