Stuart LangridgeI wish people would stop saying "JavaScript was written in 10 days" with the subtle implication that this is somehow shoddy or half-arsed. GvR wrote the first version of Python in a month in December 1989; the first bit of C was made out of B and NB in a month or two in ~1970. Every single bit of software you've ever used that isn't some enterprise nightmare was first a proof of concept hacked together in a couple of weeks by whoever first did it. This is entirely normal; it's not a bad thing!
Ajinkya Dahale@sil ...so long as it gets proper refinements with time. Lest people keep a proof of concept to rot and move on to the next shiny.
mathew@ajinkyapdahale @sil I think it’s important to refine your design sufficiently before a public release. The real issue with JavaScript is that once all the problems were obvious there was no good way to fix them without breaking thousands of web pages.
