How it feels to learn JavaScript in 2016

[Oriol _]

It was kind of obvious that checking whether some value is an object by ensuring that it's not any of the existing primitives would stop working if a new primitive was added, which effectively happened with symbols. If some library used that, I think it is to blame. Instead, I would recommend something more simple and reliable like


```js
function isObject(value) {
  return Object(value) === value;
}
function isObject(value) {
  return new function(){ return value } === value;
}
```
