Companies: We can't find any good candidates!!! Also companies:
Me in the interview: "Generally, no, a variable can only be assigned one numeric value at a time. However, Javascript is famous for unpredictable behaviors in variable comparison statements, for instance [] == ![]. There's actually a whole library built around documenting this type of behavior this for comedic value, and other more serious libraries geared towards solving the problem. So it's possible that some obscure variable assignment scenario would result in that line evaluating as true, but it's not something you'd expect to encounter in the real world. This has gotten a lot better with typescript and es2022, but still something you need to watch for a bit."

“Go is hard to justify unless at massive scale”
I do see that point of view, didn't think of that, there are some aspects of go which are a bit weird if you never touched lower abstraction languages, yet once you learn what they are, you are all set and you can code in anything. go has the least amount of gotchas I have seen in any programming language. compare it with loads of the weird stuff javascript does https://github.com/denysdovhan/wtfjs and go is like heavenly lol

Learning Frontend/React is the new rat race.
Its a very poorly designed language. Its syntax and semantics are often confusing and unpredictable. There is no well defined mental model of how constructs work in this language.

[2023-07-12] Razuberi Development Update
I successfully executed the assert-true.js and assert-false.js tests in the harness folder of the test262 repo. (This folder is full of tests which test the test harness itself.)

Enumerating and analyzing 40 non-V8 JavaScript implementations
I have used a few js engines in the past (nashorn, rhino, otto) and all had problems with missing edge cases in the APIs or really weird quirks in the interop with the host environment.
https://github.com/tc39/test262 is the ecma test suite.
rhino for example has extensive gaps:
- I bought ISO 8601-1:2019 and 8601-2:2019. AMA
What are some alternatives?
