Content Arne Brasseur plexus Tony Hoare: null was my billion-dollar mistake javascript: takes long drag on joint ...what if we had, like, two of them?

The AUDACITY of JavaScript haters when Lua developers are RIGHT THERE! 😱 Lua devs sitting in the corner with their 1-indexed arrays and "nil" instead of null, nervously sweating and praying nobody notices their quirks while everyone's busy roasting JavaScript. It's like watching someone get away with murder while the cops are distracted by a jaywalker. The side-eye is INTENSE because honey, when your language is primarily known for Roblox and WoW addons, maybe don't throw stones from your glass gaming engine!

The trillion-dollar tech industry balancing on the shoulders of sleep-deprived devs who maintain crucial libraries for free while corporations rake in billions. Nothing says "thanks for preventing digital apocalypse" like a GitHub star and zero compensation. Next time your company's product works, remember it's because some poor soul debugged a critical dependency at 2AM fueled by nothing but spite and instant ramen.

The eternal battle continues! First person states the obvious: "JavaScript is not Java. They are different languages." But the reply below absolutely murders with precision: "Java is to JavaScript as Car is to Carpet." That analogy is devastatingly accurate. Despite sharing part of their name, these languages have about as much in common as a vehicle and floor covering. The naming confusion has been trolling newbie developers since 1995 when Netscape thought "hey, Java's hot right now, let's name our scripting language to sound similar for marketing!" 6412 upvotes for stating the obvious vs 1301 for the perfect analogy? The real bug is in the voting algorithm.
