True mate

"You can just use java for everything"

Thats where you're right, kiddo

can we just keep that shit on web side of things. thanks

@Tychus Nah mate, we have a js os

You can, but should you?

@coookie ofc you do but it's garbage :D you have desktop apps too and text editors but they all shayt

@Tychus except a few

@coookie gimme names.

@Tychus image burner in mac is an electron app afaik and it seems effective enough. Well, there is atom then. Which reminds me electron site has a showcase, you might want to check it out.

@coookie I tried atom it's nice and all but performance ... just nope.

@Tychus I stayed for the "nice and all" plus since I upgraded my laptop it's snappier so I am happier

It's true but

@coookie well tbh i liked somethings there and addons. but it was too annoying performance wise. i moved back to sublime text.

@Tychus yea the difference is noticeable

@beercoder That's so great

Dr. Ian Malcolm: John, the kind of control you're attempting simply is... it's not possible. If there is one thing the history of [JavaScript] has taught us it's that [it] will not be contained. [JS] breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh... well, there it is.
John Hammond: [sardonically] There it is.
Henry Wu: You're implying that a group composed entirely of [Java and C++ programmmers] will... [use Node]?
Dr. Ian Malcolm: No. I'm, I'm simply saying that [JavaScript], uh... finds a way.

@tytho wow it were more relatable than I imagined when you put it more in the context. Would totally watch that movie

@Tychus what about node.js?

JavaScript should have never made it past web browsers. And it should have replaced by something better, like Python.

@deusprogrammer But it did, and there are lot of reasons why.

@W1ckeD the main reason for Nodejs was just that a lot of web developers were too lazy to learn a real back end language like Java.

@Nereus what about it ?

@deusprogrammer Here we go again with "Real back end language". Both of them have awesome features as well as nasty flaws. Let's leave it at that. I use both(scala actually) and love both.

@Esper fucking yavascript

@deusprogrammer check out Ionic 2 and reevaluate

A friend of mine uses React for a static ugly site

@Nereus you can use bondo, paint and after market body kits to make a piece of shit car look like a race car, but it doesn't change the fact that it's still a piece of shit underneath :P

Waiting for kernel.js

in before:

sudo insmod kernel/drivers/net/wireless/brcm80211.js

i love how the guy asks me about node.js i answer with "what about it ?" and get multiple downvotes ... :) triggered much fanboys ?

@Tychus I hate how people get triggered when someone doesn't their favorite language/framework/library/OS. It's the bane of any community, not just developers. People believe that an attack on something they love is a personal attack on them, and it's freakin' ridiculous. Not sure what to do about it, other than just not to take things personally from my end.

@tytho there's nothing you can do about it. butthurts will butthurt. instead of discussing opinions they get triggered. oh well
