Thanks for the heads-up - I'm not going to bother with this piece then.

Anyone with strong opinions about mainstream programming languages is automatically suspicious to me.

I mean, I get it - plenty more elegant and better thought-out languages than JavaScript, with their practitioners pounding the floor, saying "it should have been me - not him!".

But, ultimately, who can't write good code just because they're not using their favourite language?

Indeed which is why I write everything in machine code. What sort of elitist could possibly think this is a bad idea?
