JavaScript rage

To my horrified surprise, both Windows 8 and Gnome 3 intends to use a JavaScript engine for Silverlight (Windows) and Gnome shell (Gnome 3). Good luck to them, when hords of furious users ragingly will attack them in order to lynch them – but I'll silently be walking in another direction.

About Gnome 3, take a look here:

JavaScript is the language that eats all your memory when you surf with a web browser, it is designed to make massive memory allocation for ordinary execution, but it garbs only when the memory starts to be consumed by the JavaScript engine. Of course this competes with all other programs on your computer: a nonimportant program, such as the web, eats up resources for important programs. Fair? No! Polite? No!
