&gt; There is nothing wrong with node.js programmers, your implication that they&#x27;re inferior is a broad-sweeping and baseless generalization.<p>Not the point I was making.<p>The point is there was a systemic cleansing of senior architects in favor of younger node.js programmers.<p>Mozilla had the creator of JS there. It&#x27;s probably one of the offices in the world where the grayhairs could co-exist with the newer crowd.<p>I thank you for your reply. I don&#x27;t agree with everything said above (servo has paid off, hacker ethic matured to something better), but will say Mozilla does has a diverse array of new projects.<p>I&#x27;m hoping for your success. I&#x27;m happy and encouraged by your optimism. I hope it doesn&#x27;t come at the expense of insensitively ignoring those who were pushed out wrongly for  reasons that had nothing to do with merit.
