I guess front end designer then? Given that a complete javascript knowledge is encyclopedic, I'd say that you have to allow for a very wide gamut of experience for this.
What about the front end web developers who can't seem to create original designs, they fight the design and artwork part as much as a layout designer fights with javascript.
This isn't so cut and dry. Plus with the javascript libraries you can get quite far without writing your own js.
If you don't know JavaScript, you're really handicapped using any form of higher-level language wrapper. Coffeescript is syntax sugar. Run into problems or library incompatibility with other components and you don't know JavaScript...well...
BTW, for the record, I've never actually known a coffeescript dev who didn't know JavaScript, too, though.
What happens when there's a problem at the interface between your favorite compiles-to-javascript language and javascript? If you don't know javascript, how are you going to debug and/or fix that? I've never used coffeescript or clojurescript, so maybe they're so thin that this never happens?
Therefore, the score it provides should be a running tally of how many characters you've used to make it match the scoring system of golf; which is the lowest number of strokes wins.
The scoring system for this is incremental which is the opposite of golf.
A proper scoring system with this would provide a character limit (par) for each section and the goal would be to write a shorter regex formula to complete the task. Final score would be how many characters under or over the total character limits (course par) you scored.
Seems this is more like Regex Darts or something like that.
The title was (most probably) derived from Code Golf, which is a competition in coding something with as few characers as possible. Code Golf was derived from Golf, where you want to use as few turns as possible.
The score going up and not down, which is done because you get more points the more objectives you fulfill, does not change the objective of this game or what it is based on.

Golf scoring penalizes you with more "points" by how many strokes you take.
If you are playing a Par 4 and it takes you 6 swings to get in the cup you just got _penalized_ +2
If your partner gets in the cup in 2 swings he is awarded -2
From my quick read, Code Golf uses a similar scoring system as to the sport of golf, the lower the score the better.
This game is the opposite, meaning the higher the score the better.
This has nothing to do with the objectives of the games in question, just the scoring method.
To make the sport of golf have a similar scoring system as this game you would grant ten points for every stroke under par, deduct ten points for every stroke over par, and deduct one point for every penalty stroke.
Alternatively, it's a loose analogy and the main point of the game is to save keystrokes (with the positive scoring system added to reward partial effort; if it came down to a scored competition the leaders would anyway all probably have full credit for solving the problem).
Regex golf is to code golf as paintball golf is to normal golf. Or something.
I do have earphones with a button, and the button already works to start and stop my music and skip to the next track (with two presses). But sometimes it gets delayed for up to 5 seconds (for reasons I've never understood). If Pressy can fix that then great. But if it can't then there are going to be a lot of disappointed backers out there.
One of my long-term disappointments with Android is that they never used the modified plug the iPhone uses that also allows for volume control. But then, Apple may have patented it.
I wonder if people that are interested in only the App to have their Headphones buttons remapped comfortably will be able to acquire that, and for what price. Not that I have done any research on Apps that already do that, since as I said, my headphones don't have a button. :)
Poor women called Susi.
