None of the things you mention are exclusive or innovated by JavaScript by any means, actually everything you say exists since computer networks exist; are you maybe mistaking internet with web?

JavaScript only excels in one aspect: the size of its community which is mostly, but not exclusively, formed by poorly qualified web page prototypers.



> None of the things you mention are exclusive or innovated by JavaScript

JavaScript is distributed across billions of devices. Nothing else comes close.

If you read my comment as an endorsement of JavaScript instead of an explanation why people care more about its expanding universe than someone dinking around in Rust, then you're making two mistakes.


Still do not get how you leverage these billions of devices as workers for a distributed workload; it is by all metrics suboptimal or mediocre compared with any other programming platform to distribute workloads. As customer end-point we would be speaking in a different context.

Please do not label other’s different of interpretation as interpretation mistakes: I believe your opinion is factually wrong.

Happy to alleviate some of your ignorance by typing more slowly.

I buy ads.

I can get access to devices anywhere in the world, do network testing, and on the last mile which is cost prohibitive for any other distribution channel.

Then don't be wrong.


And is via Ads the way you distribute workload across devices? Do not call that distributed computing.

Actually I prefer to ignore your practices.

> Then don’t be wrong.

Whatever, the pound for you if that makes you happy.
