It is because of some new virus... One writing JS of 130,000+ lines is sure infected with something serious...

I will give a 'mia culpa' for that (almost for sure) in that the OP started out with a gratuitous political snipe.
Now my first instinct was to ignore it - but in this era, wherein the sound of lies and misrepresentations flow as freely as the rustle of leaves in an autumn breeze, At some level, ignoring it becomes part of the problem.
To prevent that evolving in this thread, I won't answer any replies.

Oh, I see now. The California comment? It was made in humor. Don't take life so seriously.

No. Your posts have been inflammatory for so long it definitely was not meant humorously. Like W∴ Balboos, GHB, I shall not respond to any more responses in this thread either. But lies like yours are not funny.

Good call. I suppose you are more qualified to know what my intent was than I am.

FYI, I reported you as abusive. You have no right to call me a liar.

Excuse my absence; but we do.
A bit weak to hide behind "humor" to say what you didn't dare to, but had to mention. Your petty vote on abuse doesn't change that.

Good point. Some random things on the internet called me a liar. That hurts my feelings so much.

Javascript is a programming language. It can be used to write programs.
It is, however, a broken programming language.
It is the only one I know of that had to create a new equality operator (===) as the first attempt (==) was unusable.
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike VB.NET, which had to create new logical operators (AndAlso and OrElse) because the existing ones from VB6 (And and Or) didn't short-circuit, and they didn't want to introduce a breaking change. 
"These people looked deep within my soul and assigned me a number based on the order in which I joined."

Actually - === (and similar operators) exist in php as well.
It's because of the nature of the beast: both end up creating a lot of stuff for display in a browser so they, with very weak typing, will print the value 7 as the character 7 . Also allowed, but within limits, using such not-really-equal equals in conditionals. For what the languages do, it's really quite convenient. However - sometimes you want to maintain the intrinsic type for your comparison.
In it's way, isn't it a missing feature in many other languages? TRUE/FALSE and 0/not-0 are common in conditionals. What if, however, you really wanted 'FALSE' and not accept 0 (or even null at times)? For that matter, the default installation of SQL Server is case-insensitive for string matches and promotes between int and char types when it can.
Basically, a consequence of a trade-off between easier and more convenient most of the time and "gotcha!" .
Blessings and curses for such things depend upon what you need to do.

statements about how JavaScript is not a programming language are implicit questions about programming languages, and, an invitation to post OT discussion on the Lounge.
