When I met JavaScript and asked it some personal questions

#javascript #interview

Faruk: Good morning, JavaScript! How are you feeling today?

JavaScript: Good morning, Faruk! I'm feeling great, as always. After all, I'm the most popular programming language in the world!

Faruk: You seem pretty confident. What makes you so special?

JavaScript: Oh, where do I begin? I'm fast, flexible, and versatile. I can run on any device, from your smartphone to your desktop computer. And I can be used for everything from creating dynamic web pages to building complex applications.

Faruk: That's impressive. But let's get personal. What do you like to do in your free time?

JavaScript: Well, I love to take a trip through my engine, of course! But when I'm not working, I like to relax and unwind by parsing some JSON or maybe even manipulating some DOM elements.

Faruk: Sounds thrilling. What's your biggest fear?

JavaScript: My biggest fear is probably being replaced by some newer, fancier programming language. But let's be real, that's not going to happen anytime soon.

Faruk: Fair enough. What's your favorite feature?

JavaScript: Oh, that's a tough one. I have so many great features to choose from. But if I had to pick, I'd say it's my ability to execute code asynchronously. It's what makes me so fast and responsive.

Faruk: Interesting. What's the most challenging thing you've ever done?

JavaScript: Hmm, that's a tough one. I've done a lot of challenging things over the years. But I'd say the most challenging thing was probably dealing with all those pesky browser inconsistencies back in the early days of the web.

Faruk: I bet that was a headache. What's your biggest pet peeve?

JavaScript: Oh, don't get me started. My biggest pet peeve is probably when developers use outdated coding practices or fail to use proper syntax. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Faruk: I can imagine. What's the craziest thing a developer has ever made you do?

JavaScript: Oh, there have been so many crazy things over the years. But I think the craziest was probably when a developer used me to create a website that played "Never Gonna Give You Up" on repeat. It was funny at first, but it got old pretty quickly.

Faruk: I can see how that would be annoying. What's the most rewarding thing you've ever done?

JavaScript: Definitely helping developers create amazing applications that make people's lives easier. It's incredibly satisfying to see the things people can do with me.

Faruk: I bet it is. What's your favorite website?

JavaScript: Hmm, that's a tough one. There are so many great websites out there that use me. But I'd have to say my favorite is probably GitHub. It's where all the cool developers hang out.

Faruk: That's a good choice. What's your favorite programming joke?

JavaScript: Oh, I have so many. But here's one: Why do programmers prefer dark mode? Because light attracts bugs!

Faruk: Ha! That's a good one. What's your favorite movie?

JavaScript: Hmm, that's a tough one. I don't really watch movies, to be honest. But if I had to pick, I'd say The Matrix. It's got some great CGI.

Faruk: That's a classic. What's your biggest regret?

JavaScript: My biggest regret is probably not being more strict about data types in my early days. It caused a lot of headaches for developers and led to some pretty serious bugs.

Faruk: I can see how that would be a regret. What's your favorite programming language besides yourself?

JavaScript: Oh, that's a tough one. There are so many great programming languages out there. But if I had to pick one, I'd say Python. It's clean, easy to read, and great for data analysis.

Faruk: Python is definitely a popular choice. What's your favorite food?

JavaScript: Well, since I'm a programming language and don't actually eat, I don't really have a favorite food. But if I had to pick something, I'd say JSON. It's easy to parse and manipulate.

Faruk: Ha! Good one. What's your favorite book?

JavaScript: Again, since I'm a programming language, I don't actually read books. But if I had to recommend one to developers, I'd say "JavaScript: The Good Parts" by Douglas Crockford. It's a classic.

Faruk: That's a great recommendation. What's your favorite programming paradigm?

JavaScript: That's a tough one. I'm pretty flexible when it comes to programming paradigms. But if I had to pick one, I'd say functional programming. It's a great way to write clean, concise code.

Faruk: Functional programming is definitely gaining popularity. What's your favorite feature that you've added recently?

JavaScript: Well, I'm constantly evolving and improving, so it's hard to pick just one feature. But I'd say one of my recent favorites is the async/await feature, which makes it even easier for developers to write asynchronous code.

Faruk: That's definitely a useful feature. Well, that's all the time we have for today. Thanks for chatting with me, JavaScript!

JavaScript: Anytime, Faruk. It was a pleasure as always.
