Comment on JavaScript right on the hardwareparent

JS is great - it's so hackable, via simple straightforward syntax that's familiar to anyone who programmed in c,c++,c#,java,php and is similar in ease of use to python and ruby - why on earth would you think it's a bad thing... Javascript is easy - few constructs that together can build just about anything is a big plus IMO - to each is thier own right

Many of JS's "straightforward syntax" that "looks similar" to other languages, is subtly different in profound and dangerous ways.
