Chris Richardson, founder of the original CloudFoundry.com, is a server-side Java developer who wasn’t too thrilled about JavaScript in the browser, let alone on the server. In fact, he might even suggest that we are slaves to JavaScript because people have simply started to accept its weirdness and flaws, much like a Stockholm Syndrome phenomenon.
