@rhyse Imagine using any other language than JavaScript/TypeScript for literally anything (except system drivers and such, where you use C).

@caekislove >imagine using javascriptYou lost me. Trying to use QT' scripting language was bad enough. C/C++14/Python and Matlab/Octave covers my needs.

@caekislove @rhyse People love JS. I think it's a good enough language.

@theorytoe @mikuphile @rhyse @caekislove I've written 1000s of lines of JS code. It has it's problems, but I still like it overall. It's very flexible and the 3rd party lib ecosystem is very strong.

@wtwconnecticut @theorytoe @mikuphile @caekislove I don't think it can even map a file to physical memory or reorder bits in variables. I don't think JS is too useful.

@rhyse @theorytoe @mikuphile @caekislove It can do the latter (any turing complete language can). For the former, it's not a systems programming language.

@rhyse @wtwconnecticut @theorytoe @mikuphile Yeah okay, but does your favorite programming language have over 50 dozen NPM modules for formatting dates? DIDN'T THINK SO!

@caekislove @theorytoe @mikuphile @wtwconnecticut I will never know the joy of using npm to install a library for "is_negative" only to find out some retard leaked his crypto keys and the library was banned. Why even live.
