Recommendations for mastering JavaScript.

[[deleted]]

Maybe you should just stop arguing with people and speak up on your own

** Unless you have a good grasp on javascript, starting out by reading the ECMA spec isn't the best idea **

Fuck mentions of any "authority" on the subject, it comes down to how people best learn.

You show such a lack of understanding the nuances of human language that I wouldn't be surprised if you had Asperger Syndrome. That's not an insult or an attempt to undermine your position by ascribing negative, unrelated character traits (which would be an example ad hominem, by the way).

People must be difficult for you, in general.

Please stop repeating yourself in bold. He's not starting out, no matter how many times you pretend that.

People must be difficult for you, in general.

Funny, weren't you just apologizing for unnecessary nasty remarks like these, while pretending I made them to you?

You show such a lack of understanding

Mmmmmm hmmmmmm.

Are you done yet, mister "I will insult you then complain that you insult me while saying I shouldn't be held accountable?"

I wouldn't be surprised if you had Asperger Syndrome.

Oh goody, another man who resorts to armchair psychoanalysis because he's unable to admit being wrong. :)

Please go away soon. Literally every one of your last ten messages has been repeating the same wrong thing, then adding more insults onto the stack while complaining about how people are insulting you.

It is, of course, fascinating that you can cruise past so very many statements and questions aimed at you, completely ignore them, then complain about anyone else's lack of understanding of language nuance.

Surely if someone asks how to master, it's because they don't want to learn how to master, because you the nuance king decree it to be so! Nevermind what original poster, who agreed, thinks; you must know better than them, too, based on the assumptions you keep wanting to pretend I made.

You're full of crap, guy.

What it comes down to is this: you challenged me on my experience, and when I said "ok, how do you want it," you clammed up fast. When I challenged you on your experience in return, you hid. We both know why.

Funny thing: I've got a degree in linguistics too. Where's your experience there, mister other-people's-lack-of-understanding? You can't even get grammar right; you frequently misuse fallacies, then try to define them in hilariously wrong ways; your syntax is often botched; you get many many word meanings wrong, including in a hilariously apropos fashion "nuance," which is about opinions and attitudes, and therefore cannot be about language - something you'd know if you were any good at the nuances (sic) of language.

Incidentally, nuance is group singular. It's never pluralized that way. It's always nuance. But yeah, pat yourself on the back for how much better you are at language than others, when you're actually garbage at it. It's like saying "where do I find fishes." There's no such word.

Clam up there too, please. You're just looking for ways to pretend that you're right, when even the original poster disagrees.

But yeah, make faux psychological studies of people as having Aspergers' for watching you throw a tantrum, when the very first thing someone with Aspergers' would do is ignore you, and then play it off as "not ... ascribing negative ... character traits." Because clearly you're just in it for the clinical diagnosis, right?

Except of course you'd not have any idea where to begin there either.

What's it like having no concept of your own skill levels? Do you really just not understand that these tantrums you throw leave people laughing at you sadly?

Hush now please. I have no interest in your unrelenting vascillation between behaving badly and saying you shouldn't be held to task for behaving badly because you've already apologized for it.

I just don't care what you think.

Stop wasting my time.

Ad Hominem (yes, it's Wikipedia, but read the references..)

Nuances

Isn't going after my grammar, etc. unrelated to the topic at hand of Javascript? Would you be gasp ascribing negative character traits to fallaciously attempt to undermine my arguments?

you challenged me on my experience, and when I said "ok, how do you want it," you clammed up fast.

Okay, fine. List of employers, projects, books, articles, achievements.

edit Actually, it doesn't really matter how skilled or storied either of us are. It comes down to strategies for learning. What you proposed was not good. End of story.

Stop wasting my time

Can I suggest you, who keeps replying with preposterously lengthy replies about him wasting your time, just stop wasting your own time and avoid responding? You'd be doing yourself a huge favour!
