Personally I think JavaScript is an abomination for a multitude of reasons I can't possibly fill in a forum thread (even ignoring it's client-side security issues). Not only Google, the open source community leveraged it as a whole. Regarding your opinion on your JavaScript, some will think the opposite on what you think ;). Anyway, personally for me, TypeScript is a good way to compile to Javascript as I always had problem with Javascript type safety.

Employer's love it sooo ... maybe they just don't understand it? 😉 Cheers, Rob.

Despite sometimes being annoying to the max (well Python and I we have complicated relationship lol) yet it is so popular among data science and machine learning programs 🙂 AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 64GB DDR5 6000MHZ RAM, RX7900XT, FreeSync 165hz 1440p display
October 29, 20214 yr Someone ever figure how to move that decades old saying into the quantum computing realm? 🤪 BTW, about 20 years ago I got a t-shirt as a gift with that printed on it; still gets an occasional grin when I wear it. And finally, I love to program in perl. 10 well written lines of it can be worth dozens in other languages.
