You're free to try and do better.

FYI, Brendan Eich created the first version of JavaScript in less than ten days.

Let's see your alternative! How would *you* specify a programming
language which could replace JavaScript?

He would base it all on natural language. You know, the class of 
languages that are

- verbose.
- ambiguous.
- context sensitive.
- imprecise.
- among 6,500 peers to barely suit the needs of the current world 
population.

Jonas is too dim to grasp the semantics of the tools he is forced to 
use. He does not understand HTML, JavaScript or CSS and blames that on 
syntax. He does not get that syntax is a notation for semantics rather 
than an elaboration.

Please ignore his ignorant posts on such topics. It is bad enough that 
he bothers us with his monologues about his futile attempts at trial and 
error programming.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who think like this.
