These peculiarities can be confusing and frustrating, especially for beginners. However, most of these behaviors aren't random or senseless—they stem from historical decisions, compromises, and attempts to handle various use cases. In this talk, we'll explore some of JavaScript's most notorious quirks, exploring their reasoning. We'll cover topics like type coercion, truthy/falsy values, equality comparisons, variable scope and hoisting, the typeof operator, and prototypal inheritance.
