Hey great. If I could make one comment about the left side of the bike shed, the "node is faster" tenet kind of threw me off a bit. I mean, I use node because it's efficient - and often fast - for doing lots of io. But I feel like there will always be a neckbeard popping up to to show how something else is "faster" at some particular task, and anyways a lot of the speed is v8's responsibility. And there's certainly been at least one case were optimizations were rolled back in favor of stability. *shrug*
Oooh ooh, maybe one possible addition? "Node is for IO"? I feel like that's a distinction that is often made.
