I think most people on HN like Javascript, or at least its idea? I mean, its a very C-like functionnal language, especially since ES6 put Js on the right road (for me at least)?

It looks similar, but it isn’t. You can’t blow your stack in JavaScript while in C that’s practically a language feature and a design goal.
