Comments like this are what make it difficult for me to take HN seriously anymore. It's just an example of the hivemind at work, assume that an entire industry has the same ideas as you about what technology to use.

The Node/JS ecosystems are experiencing a Cambrian explosion in technology, with all that implies. If you don't like it, don't worry. It probably won't take 20 million years this time to settle in on the "best" ways of doing things.

On the contrary, I got a kick out of the quoted line because it was exactly what I did.
