Someone asks what language polyglot programmers dream in. First response: JavaScript. Second response delivers the killing blow: "He said dreams, not nightmares." JavaScript's type coercion, callback hell, and "undefined is not a function" errors have traumatized enough developers that it's apparently graduated from being a programming language to a sleep disorder. You know your language has issues when people need therapy just from reading [] + {} !== {} + [] . The brutal honesty here is chef's kiss. No elaborate roast needed—just a simple correction that cuts deeper than any stack trace.

Meanwhile, Rust sitting at a modest 8.9% is just enough to mention in your job interviews that you're "exploring modern systems programming." The 22.4% "Other" is where all the actual work happens – probably Python scripts that do the real heavy lifting while the Assembly code just sits there looking intimidating.
