I've read it, just another piece with zero substance. So what's the author's point, why is Javascript bad according to him?

- because there is no standard library and a lot of things are left to userland

- because Axios error handling is less than ideal

- because bugs sit long time in public repos unanswered

- because some of the language unusual expression parsing quirk, that I've yet to find in a real program

- because projects like Webpack have tons of funding via open collective, while other important libraries are done on a voluntary basis

I couldn't have put together a more random set of unrelated and largely irrelevant complaints if I tried to.
