I totally disagree. Programming low level libc functions and programming
a full-featured web browser aren't the same kind of job at all and should be
done in neither the same state of mind, nor the same language. Most probably
they souldn't be done by the same kind of person.
Nope, someone coding a web browser needs to know how libc functions work.
All languages wrap libc's API with their own primitives: C wraps
unistd's write() within printf() and fwrite() and even unistd's write()
and seek() are wrappers for kernel's pwrite(). This even more true for
higher level languages.
Programming _on_ a browser indeed could get a pass, but then, it's not like
Javascript is a real programming language... :p
I tend to consider Javascript as a junk language, but my opinion on it is not
well educated. It might be good for what it was designed for.
Meow!
Wah! :-)
