Of course. I've used C pretty extensively, Java enough to hate it, and C#.

I consider myself a javascript developer because that's what I've done my best work in and that's what I enjoy the most.

I wouldn't really consider any of those decent (certainly not C or Java), unless C# got sum types when I wasn't looking.

He said decent type system, not static one.

How can someone enjoy javascript ? Even closures are not done right and now they added classes. Just what we need sigh

I agree, classes are silly in JavaScript. It just masks the prototype and creates ambiguity; using the prototype effectively is part of being a good JavaScript developer.

I understand the hate and everything but honestly I think it presents a fun and refreshing way of solving problems.

Also npm is pretty awesome, aside from how massive the node_modules folder gets.

C, Java, and C# have decent type systems, especially compared to JavaScript.

They wouldn't say C is "weakly typed" if its type system was decent :)

No sum types, no higher-kinded types, huge verbosity in declaring a new type. I'm talking something like OCaml/F#/Scala/Haskell.

The type systems of Java and C# are OK. C is not even in the same league.
