  I’m a C programmer. My first time writing Javascript and ran into some sort of bug involving a === sign or something. Javascript is a silly language.

    console.log("10"+1); // "101"
    console.log("10"-1); // 9

      The epitomy of irony is a JavaScript developer insisting that some other language is “a fractal of bad design” without immediately acknowledging that JS is weird as hell.

        I like Lua’s design. Separate addition (x+y) and concatenation (x…y) operators ftw!

    Javascript lets you compare unlike types without extra steps using ==. If you want strict comparison where “2” isn’t 2, use === and !==. Personally, I find that easier than having to parseint or cast every damn thing. That said, I have build tools set up to enforce strict comparison because I don’t trust myself or others.

    Truish and falsish and nullish are all concepts made up by madmen. JavaScript is the language of the damned.

  If one is alphabetising things, which cones first “A” or “AA”?
