Can you tone it down a bit with the “has a virtual machine in it” part. The word you are looking for is “sandbox” virtualization.

- rektide 3y agoI'm not sure what logic or system you're applying, but it seems categorically wrong. Java is a VM. JS has a VM. .NET has a VM. These are all virtual machines. They're their own execution engines running compiled user code. I think your gatekeeping here is very technically incorrect. This isn't tone. This is what the industry actually has used for multiple decades now as terminology. Is the code being run natively compiled? No? Is it running in a machine which is virtual? It's a virtual machine. This has incredibly long precdence of terminology. It's been what Apple has gate-kept with for a long time now. I disagree with your tone policing, on a number of grounds.
