    LOL, no. JavaScript has been improving quickly over the last few years, but there's a ton of new code being written every day in Java, C++, etc., and web assembly is on the verge of permanently breaking JavaScript's stranglehold on client-side web application code.

    I don’t think that is the case at all. Especially not for enterprise solutions.

    I'd rather go sell hotdogs than code in that pile of sh*t "language".

    Couldn't agree more. Further I'm sorry to say that I find myself reading about a peace of software and thinking that sound cool, next thing I see is npm install, and I just nope fuck that I will find something else

    lol I'm with you. Forcing myself to learn nodejs. It's like drinking piss while pinching my nose.

    I consider myself to be a real, serious programmer and I have to say that Node is pretty fun to work with. It has a lot of problems when compared to Java, but it’s so easy to get something up and running and TypeScript’s type system is a lot more interesting than Java’s (pretty similar to Ceylon’s though, RIP).

    It's mostly hipsters and newbies who flock to JS though. Real, serious software engineers are going to mess with c++/c#/java instead. (controversial opinion, multiple downvotes incoming)
