If there's one thing web developers love, it's knowing better than conventional wisdom, but conventional wisdom is conventional for a reason: that shit works . Something's been bothering me for a while about this node.js nonsense, but I never took the time to figure it out until I read this butthurt post from Ryan Dahl, Node's creator. I was going to shrug it off as just another jackass who whines because Unix is hard. But, like a police officer who senses that something isn't quite right about the family in a minivan he just pulled over and discovers fifty kilos of black horse heroin in the back, I thought that something wasn't quite right about this guy's aw-shucks sob story, and that maybe, just maybe, he has no idea what he is doing, and has been writing code unchecked for years.

Node.js From the Enterprise Java Perspective | Shine Technologies Blog

The HelloWorld example on the Node.js website is a complete HTTP Server in six lines of code. It answers an HTTP request with “HelloWorld”. This example tells a lot about Node.js: It works at a much low-level than a typical enterprise developer normally does.

I 've been administering Unix machines for many years now, and frankly, it kinda sucks. It makes me wonder, when sitting in front of a crisp, 2 .3 million pixel display (i.e. a laptop) why I 'm telling those pixels to draw me a computer terminal from the 80s . And yet, that's what us tech nerds do every day. The default Unix toolchain, marked in time by the 1970 epoch, operates in a world where data is either binary or text, and text is displayed in monospace chunks. http://acko.net/blog/on-termkit/
