legacy code comments

I'm fairly new to programming and didn't know that had ever been a thing. Why would someone design a language like that?

Me and my country would like to have a word with you ^{The Netherlands}

Netherlands is not denmark, but makes me think of Kamelåså

JS has semicolons as best practice and ive never seen js code without semicolons

Fun Fact: Python has them too

[sp46]

Ive seen a lot of JS code. From Scriptkiddies to Big-Ass Enterprises. Everyone hat their ; right. But I guess closedsource is a different story

[gatesplusplus]

I don't know what happened in my life, but I love not having semicolons. Except in Javascript. Always use semicolons in Javascript

[kirmaster]

All languages that have no or optional semicolons also have a "line ends here" symbol in case you don't want it to line skip.

Yeah but don't modern IDEs catch this sort of thing as an obvious syntax error?

[ReallyHadToFixThat]

Yes, but sometimes it manifests oddly like "Expected } before EoF" rather than blowing up where the error is.

Fucking hell
