      Seems like a “haha JS bad” kind of joke, but OP seems to forget that Python is also in a similar boat.

            Nah, just slow.

            But it has a ridiculously big library and is easy to write. A lot of libraries are also written in C, so the slowness drawback doesn’t even apply in some cases.

        JS at least has Typescript to mitigate most of its problems, but mypy leaves a lot to be desired.
