How is that a 'sampling error'? That is exactly who he sought to help, and help others not end up in their situation without prior recourse. No one is forcing anyone to use anything ( your work environment may vary ) - but the simple math is this: JS is going to be everywhere, lots of people will be coding in JS, demand for expertise ( or competence, or ability to gain it ) outstrips supply. Perhaps we have now established a population and a level of access to means for knowledge transfer of sufficient quality for 'the masses' - I doubt it. There will likely always be a population that will see benefit from using jslint, whether as blindmans cane, training wheels, fast-fail indicator or code consistency enforcer. > -- > 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. > To post to this group, send email to nodejs@googlegroups.com > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > nodejs+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/nodejs?hl=en?hl=en > -- 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.
