@bean :)
ive heard the claim in random youtube videos multiple times that js was supposed to be scheme but was changed by sun
>>108409303That sounds absolutely atrocious. Thank god neither of those happened.Turns out JS is actually a fine language now that people actually figured out how to use its strengths right (and to use static typing).
>>108410691>no integersliteral garbage
How would that be any better? Browser scripting was a mistake.
Lua the programming language for simpletons who can't climb the ladder of abstraction techniques.
>>108410700You can use | 0 or Math.trunc. The engine is smart enough to realize it doesn't need floating point numbers when your calculations don't. And when you absolutely have to be sure, writing and loading a webassembly module is quite easy nowadays.
>>108410700Lua is the same though.
>>108410714I don't want a ladder of abstraction techniques moving the document I'm trying to read around.
>had that dream where there were 300 competing search engines
>>108410700use case for having integers?
>>108410702yeah bro cause I wanna install dozens of desktop apps like this is still 2012 gramps
>>108410758>she actually uses webappsHave fun with that, you dumb cuck.
>>108409303I still serve pages as application/xhtml+xml
>>108410777look here you shrimp dicked faggotI'm not installing all that shit
>>108410738Lua has integers since 2015
>>108410714>the language famous for having only 1 container type, first class function closures, and advanced metaprogramming features (metatables) is for people who can't into abstractionJust admit you only ever used lua for 5 seconds when configuring neovim and then threw a temper tantrum when you found out tables are 1-indexed
>>108410680yes, because java was the hip new thing and the language needed object.property = faggot
>>108409303>LuaYou really are delusional.
>>108410750>use case for having integers?I like it when 1 + 2 = 3
>>108409303>had another dream where xhtml won you should have a dream about htmx winning instead, it being baked into the browser, no js at all
>>108409303XHTML? … maybe could have happenedLUA?, lol .. no chance
