@pvblivs Ah, misunderstanding, then :-) I meant good old-fashioned 10-finger-typing :-)

Should have phrased that differently: Do you touch-type, yes or no? (Thanks for the answers, BTW)

@ewolff Cheaper? I find that hard to believe – especially if they know what they're doing :-)

@ewolff Yes, that's probably true. Would be interesting to find out how many JS folks started server programming because of Node.

@ewolff Interesting. My sales pitch on Node is that it's a portable, high-performance async I/O runtime with JS as its DSL

@ewolff Sure, entirely awesome, not questioning that at all. Still, it was created because of Node's popularizing async :-)
1
@ewolff I see. My view is it makes async/evented I/O a tolerable option for mere mortals; that's the more important point to me
1
@ewolff But interested to know what motivated your original statement
@ewolff But you can use Node to build network clients just as well as servers. No need to restrict it.

@ewolff Or on the client. In fact, it's about JS outside of the browser.
