What in Javascript does not fit that description? It has even more inertia than Fortran and Lisp, it has more badly written software running than Java and C++.

Misguided as the article is, I think it still reached the correct conclusion.

Same for C++. There will be a -std=c++03 flag in gcc for a long, long time to come.
