This week on our panel, we have Joe Eames.JOE: Hi there.CHUCK: And Merrick Christensen.MERRICK: Hey guys.CHUCK: I’m Charles Max Wood from DevChat.TV. And this week, we’re going to be talking about, I think it’s kind of a blend of making the transition from one primary language to JavaScript, it usually happens through web development, and some of the mistakes that people make when their primary language is not JavaScript. Let’s go ahead and get started.Merrick, you’re kind of the expert guy that I always look at and go, “Man, he’s awesome at JavaScript.” So, I’m wondering, did you start out at JavaScript or did you come in from somewhere else?MERRICK: Oh, that’s really nice of you, man. I actually started out with ActionScript. I really loved Flash developments, but it’s the same thing, really. They’re both based off of ECMAScript. So, I guess you could say I’ve always done JavaScript.JOE: So, ActionScript is nearly identical to JavaScript?MERRICK: Well, not anymore. ActionScript 3 developed classes and they typed it and they did some interesting things to make it more of a full-featured language. It’s got more [inaudible] than JavaScript now, I think. But I ended up getting into JavaScript when I was like 17 or so. I came across the MooTools framework and ever since then, it’s been all JavaScript all the time.CHUCK: You’re pretty young. Wasn’t that last year?[Laughter]MERRICK: Close. No, about six years, five years of JavaScript.JOE: You’re also, though, like a real student of languages. You love studying other languages.MERRICK: I love programming languages, yeah.JOE: I think you’re a pretty funny, not necessarily unique,
