JavaScript was for a long time considered an outsider language. However its presence in browsers and its ability to give HTML pages life makes it more and more attractive.
Every Generation Needs Its Own Assembler!
The history of mankind if repeating. In circles. Yet, according to Karl Marx it is repeating in spiral - the new generations are about to do the same mistakes as the previous ones, just on new, hopefully, higher level. A bit too optimistic conclusion, but as far as JavaScript goes, probably true.
I learned programming while coding in the Karel language. But it felt not like a real programming language, Karel was a programming language for children. Still, everything I ever learned about programming I owe to Karel. Those who know the two sides essay by Dijkstra can imagine what was my computer to execute my programs. Yes, I was simulating all the computations in hand.
