"...Different languages come with more than just a different syntax, they also come with their own way of thinking...". This is of course bad, because naturally we don't need Erlangs, Scalas, F#s, SQLs, Haskells, X(*)MLs, telling us there is a different way to approach a problem. Just give us the good ol' Hammer.JS! It's perfect for any task!
