I flagged this as spam, in the sense that this is blog spam that adds nothing to the original article. Please let me know if I was incorrect in doing this.
I am not sure why folks are saying that the claims are bullshit.
The dude who wrote the second post you lined to left LinkedIn in 2009. He was on the team that built the rails system that was replaced with node long after he left. Choice quote from his blog post: “I don’t think there is any question that v8 is freakin’ fast. If node.js blocked on I/O, however, this fact would have been almost completely irrelevant.”
That said, I agree with you that the post was blogspam, and thanks for posting those links!
