    Yeah, the axes on this are weird, why would the opposite of a systems language be a toy language? And why is Lua, a very popular and commonly used language in tons of stuff, a "toy"? And Lua is a nu Lang? It's older than Java, maybe it just feels newer because each release isn't necessarily backwards compatible?

        Did you just note Typescript, a superset of JavaScript that needs to be compiled into it, as closer to the system?

        Also does it technically constitute a language? That feels like a stretch too.

          As a Ruby fan having a blast with Elixir, where the hell is anything BEAM related?

          The compass is truly political.

            Assembly being obsolete has to be the funniest joke in here. It fundamentally never will be even if its use is niche

            ...and C++ being obsolete is the second funniest.

                            Haskell's also not there. I was ready to criticize any quadrant it was put in heh. But that's probably mostly because the axes are kinda bad.

                              I'm not sure "computer" was even a profession back at that time.

                                That it's an interpreted language rather than a compiled one. Bytecode and interpreted langs get the Toy Lang treatment. At least SQL has floating points.

                                That's... a really dumb definition. And why is C# right in the middle but Java's towards obsolete and toy lang? They both compile to byte code and are overall extremely similar.

                                  If everything written in those "obsolete" languages suddenly disappeared, the whole world would go dark.

                                    "System" as in a distributed system I guess...?

                                    And the chart even puts C more towards "obsolete"!

                                    LOL, obviously this chart was made for fun!

                                        Nearly my entire company's infrastructure is written in Python and Go so I take offense (even if I would prefer to write anything else other than Python, mostly because I like proper typing )
