And people bash Javascript as if it was the devil when thinks like this exist on other languages.

If we're talking about the same guy, he had to manage the economy of a country that has been constantly been fucked up by it's government. That probably also contributed to his fascist ideas.

So, just like a certain German dude?

Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript's "Everything is better than crashing" philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.

Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I'd rather not have one that is "these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault", but rather one that is slightly more flexible.

With C, you need to carefully craft your own gun with just iron ingots and a hammer. You will shoot yourself in the foot, but at least you'll have the knowledge that it was your craftsmanship that led to it.

With C++, there are already prebuilt guns and tons of modifications that you can combine at will. If you shove it in the right way, you can make a flintlock shoot a 50 cal, but don't complain when your whole leg gets obliterated.

And yet somehow it evolved to become something that will last to the heat death of the universe.

I've grown used to it with time, though. Once you know it's "quirks", it's not so bad.

That scene was one of the most hilarious scenes I have ever seen.

Last pandemic in Europe where bodies piled on the streets wiped out a third of the population. We would have had Black Plague v2.0

Though introducing humanity to the ecosystem did not lead to it being healthier. We must be the exception that proves the rule.

Damn, that's a shame. He in the EU, there's tons of laws that can be used on cases like that, and many times, they are and work.

Hope things get better for you in the future.

If your daughter was doxxed, can't you file a criminal complaint directly with the police? At least where I live, it would be grounds for a criminal investigation.

In Portugal, the only movie I saw where there wasn't an intermission was a very short movie, barely 50 minutes long. Anything longer than an hour has an intermission, or at least had before the pandemic.
