I remember using javascript 19 years ago on an intranett project, where we could use all the features of netscape. If I only knew back then what this language was capable of. Who could tell it was this fantastic dynamic, class-less, prototype based object oriented programming language? I know it has it's wharts, but they are easily ironed out with lint, es6/traceur/babel and better ide support.

Happy birthday javascript! :-)
