And those of us who went to it from those ostensibly "better" languages...?

Go on. Say we're "wrong". I could use a chuckle. :)

Not wanting to use those better languages is effectively the same in this case. But you mentioned it being wrong first...

Because I'm rather tired of the silly claims. I write Rust. I write Kotlin. I write C++. I write Ruby. And I also write JavaScript. Horses for courses--and the mind-meltingly stupid sneering nonsense should just end. Just...end.

I used to smarm about it. I was wrong to. You should stop, because you are wrong now.

I never made any such 'claims', but I'm happy for you. I enjoy those things, too...

You're the one sneering, smarming, etc. and attempting to create drama. I never said anything about using Node being bad. Maybe you should re-read what I wrote?

Hey, keep believing that if it makes you feel better.
