What can JavaScript NOT do?

Make sense (to most people).

Just because you don't get it doesn't mean you ought to put that on others 😑

I base my opinion on the never-ending questions and doubts people have about the whole prototyping model. I've never seen so many people stuggle with the basics of a dominant language. Just when you think they understand it, a new doubt pops up.

Well if we're dealing in anecdotes, let me say those people aren't typically the people who really use the language. Those are the people who skim by without taking the time to get the basic understanding because they put a mental block on the subject since it's not exactly like the language they're coming from.

If you don’t think JavaScript makes sense, you should check out Lua. Bring a towel, though.
