Comment on JavaScript is the new Perl

Comments

If you say Javascript is becoming an assembly language, you never coded in assembly language, it is not "impossible" to maintain a javascript project, if you can get pass that it is not java, people have been doing it for years and will continue to do so in the near future

Building on this point: there are more and more libraries and frameworks in javascript that follow best practices in keeping things modular, well separated and differentiating core-app code from DOM manipulation.

at all costs sure, but why should I waste so much time?
