i would like to extend my displeasure to those who have been impersonating me all this time. by your incessant posts you are annoying [spoilers]/prog/[/spoilers]riders. what good does that do? okay, so let's start with some facts we already know:
javascript is fast: if you don't believe me, look at the shootout. see any other dynamic languages up there with V8? i don't! V8 is the most innovative JIT compiler of the modern age, reaching levels never before imagined in computer science.
javascript is elegant: closures and first-class functions, callback-driven paradigms, prototypical inheritance and regex support are bleeding-edge. innovative concepts like generators and weak references are soon to be added
javascript is active: many well-respected corporations donate valuable time to the development of javascript in a well-controlled environment with careful consideration placed into feature adoption
javascript is efficient: with performance and memory requirements similar to the JVM, javascript provides a competitive runtime footprint suitable for the demanding needs of the enterprise market, but available to everybody!
javascript is everywhere: browsers, browsers, browers! one day you will not even have a traditional operating system anymore; you will instead boot straight into google chrome with full leverage of the javascript ecosystem at your fingertips
there. you ``faggots'' don't need to repeat this every single time! once per thread is enough. even worse, you aren't backing up your claims. they may be 100% true, but js detractors aren't even going to put in the effort to read your posts much less switch to javascript if you don't take the 3 seconds it takes to post some benchmarks. please, don't turn javascript into a joke like rails!
thank you for your time, and happy noding!
