Not so. It is for people who do not know JavaScript.
JavaScript is a very robust language, but most people only know how to copy and paste from the internet instead of really learning the language.

No way. It is BECAUSE I know JavaScript that I love jQuery.
The guy who wrote jQuery knows it way better than anyone it would appear.

That's likely true.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

I used to think that, and for most things I agree that too much abstraction is bad. But then I started using jQuery. It's well done. It's like an 80k file download extra, even less possibly if you use cached file from a CDN, and it doesn't add too much overhead.

Anal polyps are better than JavaScript. (I would imagine)

That would be a good "Choose one" question:
Choose one:
Ginger or Marianne
Boxers or Briefs
Ketchup or Mustard
Anal Polyps or Javascript
Death or Visual Basic

It would, and if your luck was down you could choose between death, anal polyps, JavaScript or VB...

jQuery is the ultimate Swiss army sledgehammer of frameworks, it does everything but it has so many attachments that you can't find the one that you want to use for the tiny corner of its functionality you need.

Because it can be done in one line in jQuery and you don't have to worry about browser compatibility.

You don't have jQuery with that massive file. What kind of server do you have that thing on?

That image just revealed itself a line at a time.
If I'd been waiting to find out if the lady in the picture was wearing underwear or not then it would have been exactly like most of my earliest experiences of the internet.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.
