I don't know what's worse: The whole anti same-sex marriage deal or inventing Javascript.
Probably Javascript..
Oh he's THAT guy?!
Fuck that guy. He basically is the reason popups was so damn widespread.

Keep that shit running on your server. I dont need another vector for malicious code to run on my machine
If there's no JavaScript, there will be another language developed to fill that void. We don't know whether it'll be better or not. But with TypeScript, working with JavaScript has been quite painless for me.
