@@somebody_2837 no, its just a bad language, it was not designed to be used this extensively
The worst thing about JavaScript is being a tutor trying to explain "that's not how it should work, and you shouldn't do that, but yes, it does work"
that's exactly what my teacher says in every class 🤣🤣🤣
That's why you should study js by urself reading specs
If you listen closely, you can hear the faint screams from inside the tutor's braincase ...

"Completely detatched from reality" is the most accurate description of js type system that I've ever heard
The JS type system's biggest fault is trying to help you do things you didn't know you intended, mostly by casting everything to a string.
It's like editing a word document, but Clippy has sudo privileges over your filesystem now.
@@i_should_be_coding Yeah wtf were they thinking? "let's make 0 == "0" for when the programmer forgot to remove the quotation marks, so he doesn't get an error and have to debug his code" lmao
@@Merthalophor and so we have === for type checking
@@Merthalophor i think the reason was for user input to work better, as in: they type a number, the program would think it is a string, but the programmer would want to compare it to a number.
It's like a monkey with a machine gun. You can't really blame the monkey for the small genocide it commits every time it wants to pass arguments to a function which is also an object because everything is an object.
There was Atwood's law, now here's my law:
"Everybody who can code in JavaScript, suffers with JavaScript"
* cries in JavaScript *
@Dr. Gregory House the answer is yes.
If you don't hate JS at least partially after using it, you haven't used it thoroughly yet.
Sadly, you don't have to code in it to suffer from it
i dont hate js, i hate ms
I love how JavaScript worked around the weird equality test issues by adding more equality operators like === (in other words, no I mean it, is it really *really* equal?)
It's more equally equal.
No other language has this because '==' in those languages is testing for equality but '==' in JS... isn't. Because it's "Like Java but for r*tards."
"They are all equal…… but some are more equal than others."
apparently it's not enough. I took at look at react a few years back, think it was around version 15/16. threw together a oneliner that walked the dep tree of a fresh 'new' react app (at a casual 200 mb), and counted duplicated libraries. the winner was an equality checker lib, at 19 duplicates

"Puts food on my family"

If you add food and family it equals dinner table in JS

@@st-jn2gk Dart is so amazing
Fun fact: {} + [] is 0 because, in this case, {} is *not* an object. Rather, it's an anonymous block scope. If you're confused, it's equivalent to the expression "if (true) {} + []". "if (true) {}" isn't a piece of data--- it's a statement. The + operator in this case is unary, meaning that [] is its only operand. To demonstrate this, you could type out "+ []" and get the same result. Unary + simply casts its operand to a number. [] casts to 0. And hence, the result is 0.
Where did the semicolons get inserted?
@@Lexaire nowhere because JavaScript doesn't require them

Yep. A general purpose tool that can be a applied to any job is almost always going to be a bad tool for whatever job you apply it to. It's like trying to dig a hole with a butterknife. Sure, you can, but someone came up with shovels for just this situation.
Not even a mention that every implementation of Javascript is different and incompatible with other implementations. Theoretically same code should work on any web browser, or other webpage rendering device. In practice you write miles of code to test for presence of features, and work around their absence, and in the end it still fails on a number of devices where the test itself triggers a runtime error.
That has never happened to me as of yet, I thought that was a thing of the past. I can sort of agree that some functions still do this, but I don't think it's that prominent to be called a problem :)
@@MrQuantumCodes You don't run your code on enough devices.
@@MrQuantumCodes "That was a thing from the past" means you don't test your code on older devices. Some 3 weeks ago I decided I'll get back to Javascript after some 15-year hiatus, learn all the new stuff. Made a nice small webapp (a slideshow pulling random pictures off a *booru site) using all the modern best practices. Then bought the cheapest new 10" Android tablet to hang it on the wall and run the app on it, as a kind of electronic photoframe. Android 4.2, newest Chrome capable of running on it, 10 years old, the app crashed horribly. Allegedly JSON.Parse was on Chrome since the beginning, and is the fallback if newer JSON parsers fail. Apparently not on Android, sought alternatives, all too new, had to do the deprecated eval() people tell horror stories about. Fullscreen API - the standard version causes runtime error, but I managed to find the experimental, pre-standard implementation specific to Chrome and it worked. Checking for fullscreen was a no-go though, the checking for presence of the property would cause runtime error, never mind trying to read it. I had to scratch a modern, neat [].includes() to find if an element is in the array, and iterate elements like one would in Netscape Navigator. And had to do body id="body" because GetElementsByTagName wasn't implemented.
@@sharpfang Android 4.2 is a thing from the past though. It is well over a decade old now. I am not suprised modern JS won't run optimal on a deprecated OS
@@daveyvanderweide4977 And yet I bought the tablet "new" never used, from a retailer, dunno how old really but not some refurb. Recently seen a knock-off Xiaomi 12 phone look-alike, advertized to run Android 11. In reality it ran Android 4.2 reskinned to look like and identify as 11. And it wasn't some ancient product that spent ages in storage. It was manufactured over the past year, 'cause they wouldn't be able to replicate Xiaomi 12's look faithfully before its release. In short, Android 4.2 is far from dead, and its users, sellers and manufacturers don't care about its "deprecated" status. Meanwhile JS developers who do, create for these very users the problems I wrote about.

How this comment 21 hours ago when video is only 1 hour ago
I had a JS project last week in university which drove me insane because of the CommonJS, ES6 and bundling clusterfuck. Like everything you do breaks another thing. Then there are features which are supported since years in one browser and not in others (I look at you module web workers and importmaps).
The video was relieved my pain.
I mainly use MDN as my reference for things Web. That has handy compatibility matrices for all the important features (that I’ve come across so far), so I know to only use stuff where all the boxes are green.
Out of curiosity, how on earth did you solve it? Java to Js dev here, trying to make npm packages at my job has been a nightmare
@@dylanbailey4791 We didn't lol. The prof had just Chrome as a requirement so Firefox won't work at all because of importmap and module web workers. And library wise we discarded everything except ES6 modules. That worked quite well, because bundling isn't required then.
I've recently tried JS. I am not a dev, I am a tech writer and I wanted some functionality in the webdoc I was making that the Jekyll theme we use does not support out of the box. I know some basic Python and I studied R as part of my linguistics major so I figured implementing a couple of simple scripts would be totally non-issue.
And no, it was not an issue, I figured out quite quickly how to code the entire thing. Problem was, I would have spent at least a third of that time less if JS had syntax that made sense and if its console log errors were remotely descriptive of what is wrong with your code. I might be stupid, I have an arts degree after all, but to me, "x is not a function" does not intuitively mean that I missed one semicolon in a few dozens of lines of code.
The last part of your paragraph sounded like frustration 😭
I'll be honest, most error msgs are nondescriptive pieces of garbage that don't even point to the area of the error so I get you man
A good IDE will oftenmost point out syntax errors for you that the error logging would be useless for.
@@Saphkey I used browser and text editor, and console messages in the browser were useless crap most of the time 😢

To someone who worked on compilers or interpreters javascript looks exactly like the first language you will develop in a compilers course
The fact that JS was originally a lisp before the author was told to "make it look more like this new Java thing" makes it even better
eh, my compilers course had us making a language that resembled Turbo Pascal, with most of the features stripped out.
Dude you nailed it so hard. The Cronenberg mascot idea floored me. I feel like there needs to be a cartoon with programming languages as characters...
Javascript would probably just be the giant AnCap conglomerate supervillain that thinks it is responsible for its own success but in fact is mainly dependent upon the many services it "supports" (meaning they really just use Javascript begrudgingly as a key to the mystical Document Object Model which only Javascript may enter (until the arrival of Web Assembly in season 2...));

I'm a high school CS teacher and I love to teach JS. In my experience, students want to quickly build things that look fancy and quickly get bored with dull black terminal windows or sandboxed solutions for use in schools only like Kara or Greenfoot. HTML/CSS is easy to learn and allows them to start their project with an almost finished GUI that they can quickly adapt or rewrite workout changing the actual app. This is also a good demonstration of SoC (which I have never been taught in school, hence all my programs were slapped into ghastly messes of single Java files) with HTML for the structure, CSS for the design and JS for the functionality. Last but not least, JS's event driven control flow is really intuitive, especially when you've worked with graphical programming tools like Scratch or AppInventor before, and prevents you from nesting loops into each other which you won't understand later.
On behalf of all the students that hate JS and prefer python, old fashioned CLI, and C#...
Phuck you for continuing the spread of this abomination of coding.
another tip for people for the stagger animation, you can use index while looping, CSS variables, and a bit of maths to save repeated code.
I once saw a video where a guy wrote a compiler in javascript using zero numbers or letters, just various brackets and arithmetic operators. I hadn’t started learning JS at the time, and that told me everything I needed to know about what I was about to dive into
I've never written javascript code, returned back to it and immediately know what it's doing. I'm alwas looking at it like "wait, this actually works?"
Comming from the C background where I used to know each and everylogic or at least how program is running ..... now doing js feels like learning alien programming language ...... the two things which haunt me the most is ... NaN != NaN and the sort function ... wtf is this ... who creates such type of sort function??? who even use such type of sorting for numbers ??????
Coding in Javascript is like coding liquids. If you put an integer into a let, it becomes and integer variable, and then you can also set this integer variable to contain a string if you don't need it anymore. It's cool. Sometimes
Personally I wouldn't allow anything other than "const". Unfortunately this still doesn't give you any type safety. Also, it breaks all forms of non-recursive iteration; good, in my arrogant opinion those are unnecessary syntactic sugar anyway and only encourage writing spaghetti code.
The reason some languages have static typing is to discourage repurposing variables. And that doesn't work _at all._
Go goes so far as to use a different operator for when you reassign a variable, but it _still allows it._
Dynamic typing is cool though. It enables functional polymorphism. That's also why generic types are a thing.

Laughed my ass off. I think I'll just buy your course, that reverse psychology worked.
you harnessed my feelings exactly with
"object object object object"
Love these kinds of videos, keep them coming!
i kinda prefer the
from datetime import time
than deconstucting an import, much easier to autocomplete than writting an empty object to complete the setence and pressing left plenty of times C:
import {time} from 'datetime'
Sometimes I wonder what seemingly every single javascript framework compares itself to when they sell themselves as "lightweight", "fast" and "easy to learn".
probably to jQuery
@@ahandlethatisnottaken they should leave the OG alone man. Poor jQuery has been serving JS devs for years and years and years. I mostly use it to do some trivial shit which I don't like to code tons of boilerplates using vanilla JS.
this is gonna be lit just based off of the thumbnail
I made a game with javascript having never coded in any language prior to that, and I swear to god I was ready to give up each time the entire game just completely blanked out because I added 1 too many equal signs
Loved it. I've just shared it to my friends who know real languages.
