I like that quote. Captured for sig.

Whoohoo! I've never been in a sig before (I think) :D

Well, that's a bit unfair. The examples you listed should demonstrate that JavaScript is not able clean garbage produced by some programmers, not JavaScript in itself is garbage :) OK, yes, in somesense, it is, as any untyped language is ...
Find more in 1-NET: connects your resources anywhere[^]. Email searcher Email Aggregation Manager[^].
You can output garbage in any language, JavaScript just makes it that much more easy than other languages :)

One thing that gave me multiple wtf's is the arguments object. It's array-like, but not an array (actual bug) and it's shared on the page so passing it to a function does you no good (although I haven't checked if arguments[0] === arguments, but knowing JavaScript that's probaby NaN or some such :D).

Oh come on ... what the hell has Bieber to do with JavaScript now? .. come on, let's be constructive
Actually Griffs analogy is bloody good. There's a whole raft of people who think a McDonalds is good food when it most clearly isn't. Just because something has a large user base, qv Smoking, it does not follow that it is any good. Popularity is not the same as Quality. JavaScript is to quality code what McD's is to fine dining. Argument. Closed.

A whole lot of people listen to Justin Bieber and think he is wonderful. Are they correct as well? Popular != good

Bieber? Take it to the Soapbox where it belongs.

You've been in one before. Well it is your own, but it is something.

There's not mulch I can say. You compost what you like in the lounge - but sticking to puns befits you.

Compost - because a rind is a terrible thing to waste.

Why using Typescript, if there's already ECMA6 [^] available in almost all browsers? :confused::confused::confused:
-
Finally a constructive answer. So far, desktop browsers are pretty much covered. Then i guess that android browser is the biggest missing piece
