Hey, Matthew. I have some bad news: I can’t read this article without a Medium account. This is probably going to be fatal to its hopes of being widely read via HN.

Ah. To each his own.
Nearly? But even so ubiquity is not a good reason to be teaching kids javascript. Might as well be teaching them html or algebra. In fact teach algebra.
