      @greenenchilada Javascript games are always crappy. Example: https://github.com/TheLastProject/textmode/blob/master/game/src/textmode_cli.js

          @bitshift I only heard about them being bad when you said it two minutes ago. How bad are they, why and will converting everything of that to === fix it?

            @omni == is the type-coercing equality operator, which leads to such fun as 'undefined == 0' being true (for example, if you ask for a property an object doesn't have, that undefined might be the result). === is the strict one, and should generally be used unless you know you want type coercion.

            @omni That's basically the gist of it (and yes, changing all == to === should be fine), though if you're interested to know more, http://stackoverflow.com/a/359509 explains it very nicely.

            @omni This is one of the many reasons why, despite liking its positives, I find it hard to consider javascript a good language - there's just too many weird "gotcha"s.

                @anarchycarcino Yeah, I already saw it over on tumblr when you posted it. :)
