In this thread: A lot of developers who don’t understand that my burning hatred of VBScript, and JavaScript’s subsequent redemption of my sanity - do not combine to cause me any less bunring hatred toward JavaScript.

Yes, the meme is objextively false. I was there, and none of us dressed that well.

Cliff notes for any newbies trying to navigate what to think of all this:

  • VBScript was deeply flawed.
  • JavaScript is deeply flawed.
  • TypeScript exists for a bunch of really good reasons.
  • Old programmers only bitch about new technology and old technology.
  • To get as much hate at JavaScript gets, it has to be useful. JavaScript is incredibly useful.
