> During the past 5–6 years of my JavaScript experience, every time I wanted to go back to any of my projects—from tiny to big, server-side or front-end—there was always a challenge, a problem to tackle or an obstacle to overcome before I can update or sometimes even just run my program.

why i moved mostly from writing node cmd tools to using bash. don't need to go on a bunch of side missions every time i run npm install

not enough pragmatism in the JS community (people). more about hot new thing as opposed to boring long term stability. maybe because of web/chrome as a constantly moving platform, and Apple/Jobs app-ification of everything, relative young age of JS community.
