joescript

Is Node.js a good general purpose framework/language

I am see everyday node.js growing and it seems it will might be bubble. but i have tested a few scripts and it seem solid, many people think its bad or it's a bubble waiting to burst. I have tested it as linux script alternates (little programs) and of course web stuff, the community seems pretty cool and supported. what are your thoughts about it? good or constructive point also

truth, but its up to us as programmers to make it better by combining logic and design. for mostly employment reason etc.... but i prefer low gui and more command line in exp, more flexible/powerful than any gui exp :)

Clean is good, but not always better. also having a language controller by one company will make the language bias

Is Perl coming back?

Is perl coming back? Is it still a good career path to choose for exp or new coders?http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html

As programming grow, new thoughts and ideas we have coders have to think of new way of doing things. so far it has work. now the question is that with this new way of doing things how should we resolve,approach of use this?

the fact the many browser are like an OS in the sense it's home for the web but many vendors tend to believe that they can control the web by shift their browser to standards to try to control it. Remember the web a free communication source that gave everyone in the world knowledge, where we all grow

yes I agree on the Improvement but like it has been mention it was a Toy language in the sense of as not so verbose. but remember Html and CSS were missing of feature and structure for manny reason. as Programmer, Hackers and Tinkers it is up to us to improve on these things. the web continue to grow. js is the C of the web and by the looks of it, it will be this way for a while. dart is cool but something i believe it can be applied across the board.

I agree in which gives it a bad rep, but also vendors are at fault with this. because the web is freedom and they wanted to claim it. it which cause a big rip. remember the web gave us so much in the programming world. also Php and non-python(i like python)language can be written very clean, easy to understand and maintainable way. but some people use python because that reason mostly. which should be the only case. sorry Guido

But the language gave the web the foundation it need to have functional programming for the web. also it is quick to have a low end laptop or device and still learn to program. but we got to admit it has grown and evolve more than ever.I guess we will see how things go.

Why people hate JavaScript?

I think the reason people hate javascript and node.js is the fact many prefer python which is cool because i like python also but most people hate the syntax because they can't write code. coming from a C/C++ background one must learn how to write code clean. language like perl fall under here too with C,Lisp etc....

cool i will check it out,thanks
Hello Again added a form http://goo.gl/forms/2VZAXFOigk for votes

Please pass the word, it would be nice to get a real world vote base on the internet and not some one sided community of organization

Hmm Lisp, I will give That a try while I study python. Doesn't hurt to try. thanks @informatimago also a question do you think clojure is a good alternative? huge lib for the language because of all the jars out thier
also any thoughts on lua or ruby lua: lightweight ruby: joy of coding
I do like the language a lot, maybe I will do that.it just a lot of the people liked it. I'm not the following the coward type. maybe I will master this. it just sometimes it's hard and crazy out there trying to find one for you :)
