Back in the 80s, C was a high level language on your typical home computer. I recall in the 90s it was common to argue about the trade offs between writing an application in C vs. Assembly. Today, it's Java (Rust or Go) vs C. I'm just scared at what's coming down the pike that makes Javascript a "low level language."
