javascript

javascript is absurdly bad.

you visit some small site and bam! you've already downloaded 2MB of "libraries" like jQuery that waste your CPU cycles for some syntax sugar bullshit created because javascript is shit to begin with.

web apps like google docs are slow and have poor user interfaces.

javascript has been wasting millions of CPUs cycles every hour of every day with its inefficient bullshit.

and now it's considered a mandatory "technology" for programmers.

please tell me I won't have to use javascript if I want to get into the computing business. I'm too young and enthusiastic to dare envision such madness.

i'm a CS student, spending lots of time on fundamentals like avl trees, gates, IEEE floats, etc. and I kept being told I have to be enthusiastic about "emerging technologies" like javashit if I want to ever have any chance in the market.

why don't these hipsters understand that a good language like C, scheme, etc. doesn't get invented in two weeks by mozilla as some bullshit toys, that it takes several years of development and by people with experience, insight and talent.

why is it trendy to waste CPU cycles on inefficient web apps ?

why do people keep telling me i'm not cool for not installing windows 8 ?
