I don't use an ad blocker, I use a JavaScript whitelister.

It's true. A single call with the right JSON payload will launch a nuclear strike.

The best thing that Javascript did was teach us what not to do.

Could be worse. Could be php. I recall seeing some php "encryption tutorial" in a blog where all they actually did was convert text to hexadecimal...

Yes!!! To hell with #Javascript. Learn #Svelte instead.

I was in JavaScript when it was called "not a language." When no developer used it much less knew it. When I, a designer, had to correct an error in a fortune 100 company's bill payment application. When a Javascript animation I made for a demo was in check cashing software eight years later.

I'm always amused that the book "Javascript, The Good Parts" is a slim volume.
