Comment on Node.js - A Giant Step Backwards

Comments

I think it's a job for the jquery team, a node.js for the rest of us. Once they get jquery mobile out the door it would seem to be the most obvious next project.

node.js is node.js for the rest of us :) jQuery smooths out browser inconsistencies and replaces an overly verbose API (DOM). node.js has neither of these issues.

Huh? I don't follow -- do you mean that jQuery is teaching people to use anonymous functions everywhere and that's sometimes similar to how some people code with node?
