There will always be people who don't like a particular decision in the core API.
There are problems/bugs that are being fixed and there are others that are unlikely to change in core because they would break compatibility (which node can no longer tolerate). In the end, all of this mailing list complaining doesn't really amount to anything. While several of the most vocal people here put their code where their mouth is and maintain libraries for alternatives to node's core patterns most of the people who complain here contribute very little and the overwhelming number of people who are producing growth in the ecosystem don't say anything here, they're busy writing code. For every person that complains on this mailing list about an API there are a hundred libraries written to that API by people who are making the ecosystem and the platform successful. Criticism is necessary to move the project forward but it's a mistake to think that criticism in and of itself is somehow indicative of any specific failure. With success comes criticism, we're unlikely to see an end to it any time soon. As much as you might think Isaac should spend his time listening to people who are vocal here he has a great ear for the silent masses building the world's fastest growing ecosystem as well as the people deploying very large scale solutions entirely on node.js. -Mikeal On Aug 13, 2013, at 2:50PM, Eldar <[email protected]> wrote: > There are not so much insane people > If someone tells that the core API sucks probably it's really sucks and it's > fair to try to understand him harder to get his point. > Or to let him know that you indeed deeply understand him, learned all his > arguments but have in mind something he didn't know and educate about that. > There are not so much people not able to understand others and place > themselves to other's side. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
