On: JavaScript is Good, Actually

[Vinnl]

An advantage, however, is that you can directly encode Javascript data objects to JSON without having to annotate its fields or anything. I don't recall you being able to do that with Java.

[imtringued → Vinnl]

You can't do that with javascript either unless your data objects are acyclic and if they are then using a JSON parser for Java is equally trivial.

[Vinnl → imtringued]

You mean that if they are acyclic, you don't have to annotate the fields in Java either? Because the data objects I want to serialize usually are acyclic.
