&gt;  Obviously, if you don&#x27;t like javascript, move on.<p>I don&#x27;t like many things and like other things. All in various degrees. So I shared my experience.<p>But you seem to be interested in what I like, so I&#x27;ll share more. I would say, in general I am not really a &quot;$X language&quot; developer. A lot of people say &quot;Oh, I am a Java developer&quot; or &quot;A Node developers&quot;. I am not a Python developer, or Erlang developer. I am a developer who solves problems. And languages are tools ( so far I used Javascript in the past, as well as Erlang, Java, C++, C#, and yes, even FORTRAN ).<p>The point about Python was that currently, most tasks I had to do, were made quicker and easier by using Python. Some are solved better by Erlang, some by C#.<p>Javascript and Node I found had enough negatives so it seemed helpful to share that too.<p>&gt;  Obviously, if you don&#x27;t like javascript, move on.<p>I didn&#x27;t know this was Javascript land and I wasn&#x27;t allowed to come in without proper credentials. (See note about &quot;friendly community&quot; regarding Elixir in my original post, that wasn&#x27;t by accident. I didn&#x27;t want to say anything more about Node community, but I will now -- yeah it is not the friendliest, lost of insecurity and angst in it, which was another turnoff to me personally).
