    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.

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

                        Precisely. Getting people upset is the foremost technique to farm engagement on social media. Sites such as Facebook even deliberately altered their algorithms to show content that will anger readers because it works so well to keep them invested.

                        Engagement bait is omnipresent and really obvious once you learn to spot it - even something as innocuous as one or two "accidental" typos in a meme to get people into the comments section.

                            The only way Assembly will be obsolete is if there were no new chips processor models being created.

                            Every time a new architecture or a new instruction group is announced, it has to be bootstrapped into the C compiler.

                              Maybe short for "Nouveau".

                                i like how you've managed to include just a single non-procedural language, and it's the most interesting one by far, and you're calling it obsolete. says a lot.

                                  SQL isn't a toy language, it's a domain specific language.

                                      And I bet this is based in opinion and not any sort of scientific understanding because you put assembly as an obsolete language…

                                        "Obsolete Lang" is more of a looks category, and back then most programming languages were not much dissimilar from it. Basically Assembly had to stay unstructured due to how CPUs work, while the industry moved on.

                                          I read that as "directly, without a compiler", in which case it's close to fair, although I would have still put it ahead of COBOL because sometimes it's necessary.
