        No, I know that – I honestly want them both to die :p

        Both have been a blight on software development for decades.

          I don’t have a problem with Java, and you can get Oracle free versions of Java.

          JavaScript on the other hand is a blight as you say.

            You can get blight free versions of JavaScript too, if you use TypeScript.

        Yeah, for a short time there the word ‘java’ was very ‘in’. Marketing hipsters at the time wanted to use it in everything, just like the word ‘AI’ now.

        ECMA by Ecma?

        Ahh, needed Wiki:

        It acquired its current name in 1994, when the European Computer Manufacturers Association (ECMA) changed its name to reflect the organization’s global reach and activities. As a consequence, the name is no longer considered an acronym and no longer uses full capitalization.

      You can bet your bottom dollar Oracle will find a way if it is profitable.
