You do realize this site was written in Lisp?

Unless the authors of the software behind HN make up a large portion of its comment contributors, I don't see the relevance.

Where did you get that impression from?

* Almost know one here knows Lisp, make your own conclusions.

nor English it seems :)

Still waiting for someone to correct the GP...

"No one is born knowing JS" or "No one was born..."

Looks like timmm isn't a native English speaker, should his command of English be more important than his message?

There are languages where "to be born" is one verb and it makes it reasonable to make the mistake and think that in english it would be the same: "to born".

I apologize if i came off as snarky. I was trying every bit not to. I didn't correct it immediately, but when i saw another user correcting, I added my own correction to his comment.

Btw, English isn't my first language either, so please do not see this as "arrogant English speaker wants everyone to speak his language". In fact, my mother tongue is far far different from english (we dont even have a common script!)
