        That's just Java

        On the off chance that you don't already know, that's a totally different thing named after the same drink.

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

                  I actually did miss that one. TIL.

                  Interesting that it's just as nu as TypeScript, despite TypeScript definitely coming after.

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

                      I think the order of Java and Python makes perfect sense. The OOP C++ -> Java pipeline was massive in the early 2000s when python wasn't really on the radar. The world has been slowly moving away from that, and Python is one of the most popular languages right now.

                            C is more obsolete than Rust. Coding directly in assembly is rare. Beyond that it's more subjective.

                              Yeah, that one caught my eye too. Brainfuck is also pretty old IIRC, and it's hiding down there in the bottom right.

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

                                    The C which is an integral part of every linux kernel on every computer and server running linux as the OS and all the embedded systems everywhere and almost all the performance critical parts of python libraries?

                                    I won't have much to say about assembly since don't use it but far as I know low level parts of OS such as bootloader likely still uses assembly not to also mention embedded systems.

                                    As long as both of these exist in embedded systems, it is just statistically weird to call it obsolete even in regards to other languages.

                                    For instance data scientists majorly use python, but python critically depends on C and devices they use critically depend on C and assembly. Can you then really say what they do does not depend on C and assembly and python is more widely used?

                                      I roughly based the nu-obsolete scale on language features not age (or use), TypeScript is just ECMAScript with an optional type safety feature.

                                        Many games are still hand optimised in assembly, at least the inner loops.

                                          So, the Linux kernel is already partially moved over to Rust. It's probably in the Python ecosystem too, although I can't actually say.

                                          More obsolete was a deliberate word choice. Hell, even COBOL is still used.
