I hate Javascript, but I love JQuery
When it comes to the web, I prefer to stay on the server, where it’s safe. I love the stability of the environment I get in server side code, and I detest the client side chaos that goes on in the faggotry of browser wars and their incompatibilities and differences.
If I can, I try to avoid scripting completely. In the current state of browser affairs, I don’t feel like I can rely on Javascript for anything more than decoration and minor UI enhancements. When I do have to work with Javascript (and by that I mean any client side scripting language), I do it in a very conservative, “1.0″ way.
