Same here, every now an then something 'new' pops up where creators claim that its better™ than what it compiles to and that it solves all the problems but after a while this 'new thing' fades away entirely.

But then again, that's the same way C (and many other languages) was invented (as far as I understand), to replace assembly, for example, and it's still alive and kickin'.

I guess there is a subtle difference in here somewhere.
