Go would still exist though

I'd take JavaScript over all those put together.
JavaScript is awesome for anyone not building mission critical software.
Is programming language the prerequisite for mission critical software or skill issue?
Both. Would you have coded BitcoinCore in JavaScript?
Imagine the mess of trying to validate the chain with full byte-parity on all JavaScript VM implementations before each release.
There is a reason JavaScript most code only works on either Chrome or Node these days...
🤣
True. Go sucks though.

yep, go is written in go
i was learning how to write compilers in my early 20s using bison/flex and such, and in the book i was working from it explains the bootstrapping process, once you have a compiler written in the language it compiles, you have a compiler that can compile itself and who cares about complicated generic tools when you already invented the best language anyway
