These are the contents of a mysterious white bag found hidden in Neil Armstrong's closet: Weird looking lamps, wrenches, utility brackets, sights, and a film camera that later was identified as the one that captured the famous Apollo 11's descent on the Moon's surface. What? You never took anything home from the office?

You probably didn’t know it, but you’ve been buying garbage Ethernet cables your entire life. Fortunately, there’s finally a better option and it only costs as much as a used car. Something something about fools and money

You know, I think this guy below may have identified the reason farcebook looks like complete junk.

All of those YouTube comments that look misspelled or like they're missing words? Actually a result of data lost in transmission. After switching to this cable, they turned into eloquent speeches.
It's a little expensive, but I'd never go back."

Monthly Tiobe index sees JavaScript reaching new heights. Objective-C? Java? C? Not so much. I wonder if anyone changes what they code in each month to match the new #1?

Sorry but I cannot celebrate a language with These bad parts[^] becoming more successful.
Its just because we don't have a choice in the browser because W3C are so fricking incapable.
Celebrating this just shows a staggering ignorance of language history.

You may not be able to celebrate it but the fact is that it's the "assembly language" of the web. We're stuck with it as far as web dev is concerned.

There are so many people in the world, that I think it is possible.
Yet, I don't even trust those popularity results. Think about two things that have equal popularity, but one is harder to use (or simply more prone to errors) than the other.
You will naturally find more questions, answers and posts over the one that's harder to use, simply because the easier to use doesn't raise so many questions.
For example, compare how many questions are there about access violations and memory corruption in C++, C# and JavaScript. And, if we go further, the C# ones will probably be related to PInvoke/unsafe code or related to bugs in libraries that do use PInvoke or unsafe code. JavaScript should never cause access violations so, if it is happening, it will be related to bugged browser implementations. Yet, it seems that those results may be affecting the "popularity index" of the languages.

On the Swift side of things, there are a number of changes to the language which are meant to ensure “safe and predictable behavior” and to “improve interaction between Swift and Objective-C.” It's always good when a language supports 'Safe and predictable behavior'
