It's not that hard to understand what it is doing and why the decision was made to make it do that. JavaScript has a particular purpose and it's mission is not consistency.
It's not like TypeScript doesn't exist if you just get lightheaded at the idea of learning JavaScript's quirks and mastering using it despite them.
Scanned the article: neither mission, nor purpose, nor type coercion unga-bunga explained. Or was I expected to see the greatness of the language and be humbled by its glory and might?
Well then, rage against the machine for the next 30 years and see if they kill it in favor of a nice, strict language that everybody loves. Maybe you could suggest one here for consideration.
So, all you've mustered is some lame-ass whataboutism? Have a good day
So you don't have a suggestion. Got it.
Of course. Nothing beats JS, oh guru mighty guru
So all you've mustered is some lame-ass ad-hominem? Have a good day
No, it just so happens I have a minute to talk about our lord and saviour JS. What is His holy and sacred mission?
Ah, you're a troll. I see. Blocked.
You asked for it, smart ass
