I think what TJ complained about Nodejs are valid points. However I also think Nodejs preference of performance over usability is not wrong. We need to understand the Nodejs is not the best choice for all web applications, just like C is not the best choice for programs. There are already loads of languages that favors usability, and Nodejs should not become one of them. Nodejs exists because it is different. It provides an alternative for those who cares about performance, and doesn't bother to get their hands dirty in low level details.
I do agree with TJ with the fact that Streams are broken in Nodejs is becoming a problem. It should be a major help for simplifying asynchronous programming but it is still in unstable state now.
