Slow - true

Unstable - false

Ugly - maybe write better

Doesn't know the difference between null and undefined - `===` is your friend

Function signatures are more of a suggestion. You can call a function with any number of arguments and with arbitrary types. And you can add strings to ints but multiplication gives NaN. Lots of arbitrary design choices.

Try blasting a nodejs server with 1000 req per second and you'll see the stability issues I'm talking about

Surprised to see JavaScript being suggested as ugly compared to go. Wouldn't be one of the disadvantage of JavaScript IMO.
