Clearly this only makes sense. Since PHP got that operator now, there needs to be a unified programming model on the server and on the client. I hope this ist part of ECMAScript soon.

This is the internet. The internet is made up of 50% people with acerbic wit and biting sarcasm, and 50% people who believe everything they read.

Just the fact that someone could read this and think it’s a good idea is dangerous enough.

Some people need to actually read the article and related blog post. Why do some people only read the headline and go from there?

The guy actually states that this is a joke.

The whole thing reads as a joke even before the guy admits it. No one understood when he says he doesn’t condone the use of functions? Functions are for the weak?

Come on people.

Wtf is [lbl] for? JavaScript has native support for labels and you don’t need to precede them with [lbl].

It is actually useful in some languages (I have found uses for it in C#), but not Javascript.

You can hide the raptor with CSS, but you can’t fool me.

The interesting thing there is parseScripts — what a cool way to add features to JS!

But, please, no “goto”. ;)
