    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.

    "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!

      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.

      What's the difference between interpreted and compiled?

        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 )

            Just imagine any of these programming languages with keywords in Latin. One morning you're debugging a double ended queue and the next thing you know, a bit flip is being caused by a 300 year old spirit.

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

                    That doesn't stop them from being obsolete, it just means that people who have the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality can get fucked.

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

                        The Greeks were very into geometry, a purely calculated algebraic proof didn't count for them.

                          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?

                          Also Python as a toy lang and somehow more "nu" than Java despite Java being younger?

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

                            It is clearly surpassed by C though this chart seems to have missed that fact.

                                Did the same with D's superset, betterC.

                                    You say "wildly wrong", they say "incentivizing engagement".
