See now you are relating the stuffs which may or may not be really related to Javascript. If you are going to build a cross platform application as you have mentioned with Apache Cordova, then sure enough you have to bear the performance and it has nothing to do with the Javascript. I can build a simple HTML5 mobile app with a bare minimum javascript and blaming on Javascript for cross platform development doesn't make sense at all.
OK performance wise, I agree with C++ for mobile development. Do you think in real world the industries go with C++. No, not at all (Other than Apple iOS Programming is in Objective C). I would say very few depending upon case by case.
Remember Google is not a small company. They have open sourced Angular JS and today you see many folks building application using Angular JS. You are trying to compare Apple and Oranges with Javascript vs Android Studio or HTML5 with Javascript crossplatform development. Did you know how much space and RAM required for running Eclipse, compared to that, Android Studio is nothing.
You are trying to compare C++ with Javascript or other languages, which is OK but tell me are you gonna build the web application based on C++ language? The choice of programming language purely depends on what you are trying to achieve.
Do you know this "if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail", this is exactly what I feel when i read your comments. C++ is not a silver bullet is all cases 
Node JS is not at all required for running the Javascript based apps. Again it's the choice if one needs to use Javascript as a server side programming.
Brother, there's lot of things each one of us here in this world are learning from others or experiences, before you disagree on any of the stuffs that you speak, you should have a strong relevant reasons.

Well, you could hardly expect anything less than an encomium from a (evidently) Node.js evangelist, but I have major problems with this article:
0. The one thing the author gets "right" is that JavaScript began as, always was, and now is ... a "kludge." Latest technology awkwardly "piled on top of it:" inheritance, classes, veneer of OOD.
1. It euphemistically analogizes JavaScript's changes over time as "evolutionary" which I find ridiculous. There's no "survival of the fittest" in that story.
imho, its changes have been prmarily driven by serendipity, and the brutal facts of geo-political machinations of major hardware/software vendors. well, okay, yes the standards committee thing.
2. imho, if JavaScript is a "winner" it's because it "fell out of the mix" of competing technology initiatives as the "least threatening" compromise for the commercial agendas of major companies, not because of any inherent technical superiority.
3. It completely neglects the transformation of JavaScript that resulted from the ubiquitous adoption of jQuery by John Resig.

Joyent, the cloud infrastructure provider that serves as the steward of Node.js, today announced Triton, a new “elastic” container infrastructure stack that extends Docker deployments directly on bare metal. Consisting of a cloud-based service along with Triton Enterprise for on-premises deployment, Triton virtualizes the data center as a single, elastic Docker host, removing orchestration layers for more streamlined scaling and deployment of Docker applications.

Microsoft is tweaking its browser strategy ahead of making its new 'Spartan' browser available to Windows 10 users. "Spartans! Ready your breakfast and eat hearty"
|
|
|
|
|
My only problem with this, that I'm actually run Spartan tests and beside a bit of performance improvement I see no other improvements...
It still has a low score in standards, still has compatibility problems, still has non-standard solutions and so on and so on...
What is really 'good', that old sites are look really terrible on Spartan...

I think keeping the old and new engines in completely separate products is a mistake. Normal users don't want to screw around with multiple browsers; as a result as long as they have one elephanted legacy webcrap they need to use at work of them (well most of the IE users as opposed to the ones who use FF/Chrome for everything possible) will probably just keep using IE11 for everything just like the one crappy intranet page currently keeps them running IE8 instead of something newer. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Microsoft recently purchased two new domains for Office. The first one is Office.porn, the second one is Office.adult and last but not least is Microsoft.porn. The next version of Windows might be interesting after all!

They're retiring IE and buying new domains?
IE was always a bitch anyway.

It is a sad that of affair that a company (or person) needs to register adult domain name.
It shows a lot of what the internet really is.

Well, I think it's not a bad idea that they purchase these domains before someone else does it and they have to make a legal affair out of it.

The tech giant's security has been compromised due to unauthorized digital certificates being issued based on its domains. If only we had some people that we could trust to create and distribute certificates
