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.
