This move should be vindicated in the near future. But I do have some qualms:
- Appreciating data-types, their limitations and the perils of using casting them incorrectly helped me a lot in understanding about things I need to be careful about
- Are they going skip the concept of Pointers ? It's not wise to use them unless necessary but to be aware of the concept was very rewarding for me
- How will they teach multi-threaded programming? We're not quite there yet in JS.
... (insert other features here)
If they switch to another language to teach stuff which JS doesn't support, they might lose their audience and so blind side a large set of them.
Too often the interviewer's questions are loaded in two different ways - there is no one right answer and not understanding this or dismissing anything outside the narrow set of answers he/she is looking for shows a lack of maturity on the interviewers side of the table.

For an large enterprise developer who has worked about five years on .NET and Java, could you outline a path towards becoming an HFT programmer?
Thanks.
