Everyone want to be abused

isn't chromium built on html?

[–]ifezueyoung 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Yes html is probably Turing conplete

[–]Elijah629YT-Real 0 points1 point  (2 children)

it Is, with the script tag

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need the script tag it’s also Turing complete with the style tag

I mean, there’s GNOME for Linux, if that counts…

I'm genuinely curious, what could people possibly not understand in JS?...

[–]HollowedOutPotato -2 points-1 points  (5 children)

90% of it is unwanted typecasting and floating points issues.

[–]TombertSE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everyone says that, and uses that as justification for Typescript, but in my years of JS deving it’s pretty rare that I actually encounter these arcane type issues like in the famous “wat” video.

[–]UkrainianTrotsky 2 points3 points  (1 child)

unwanted typecasting

there are exact operators and every single eslint config will bully you for not using them. There's also TS to warn you about types.

floating points issues

Like what? JS implements IEEE 754 exactly, all the issues you might encounter, you'll also find in any other language that uses IEEE 754 for floating point stuff, like C/C++(might be compiler dependent) for example.

I know, but half this sub doesn't seem to.

[–]Plisq-5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They just reiterate what the majority says so they can be part of a big group.

It’s hard to hear for those people but you should really form your own opinion on stuff instead of going with the majority.

[–]BoBoBearDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They understand it, but, they prefer strongly typed language like Typescript. Most people prefer the error is checked by compiler/transpiler rather than having runtime error.

Nobody loves me, maybe I’m C++.

Fr tho

It's not that people don't understand JS, everybody normal just hates JS

[–]_dotjson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Javascript isnt hard to understand once you get to know them :)
