My one talk with Marissa Mayer

Dave Winer needs to let go of the past. He did good work for the developer community in the past but hey, move on. This is a gentleman who is still bitter because "I am no longer invited to join the boards of startups. To you young programmers, if you think Javascript is that different from C, think again [and, please, invite me to join your boards, sob, sob, sob]" :)

Interesting. If I thought Dave Winer was interested in that sort of thing, I'd probably invite him to be on our board. I mean, he's not exactly some Joe Schmoo who just fell of the tomato truck. He has done some incredibly important work for the Web over the years[1].

I'm programming in JavaScript these days, and I don't think it's like C. Who are you arguing with??

Uh, Javascript may have similar syntactical structure, but it is entirely unlike C in every way that counts that I can think of.

I think you probably need to know him a little more?
