- TedDoesntTalk 3y agoAlso the creator of JavaScript
- berkes 3y ago> creator of the world's most popular web language
- runjake 3y agoTechnically, HTML would be the world's most popular web language and I presume TedDoesntTalk was making a quip.
- dimitrios1 3y agoIntentions matter. HTML is a presentation layer at this point. No one "programs" in HTML in as much as they have to, if they do it at all (delegating it to their favorite framework to generate most of it). Most of programming for the web is done in Javascript. I like quips as much as the next guy or gal, but it feels like people are being intentionally obtuse in this instance.
- travisgriggs 3y agoMaybe "Also the creator of JavaScript" is a tongue-in-cheek contention with assuming that JavaScript and "the world's most popular language" are one and the same. Popular itself is a squirrelly word here. Popular can simply refer to as "most used" (by this metric, Xi and Modi would be the world's most popular leaders, since they lead the world's biggest populations), or it could be "most liked" by some other measure (I have no analogous leader to nominate here).

- kaba0 3y agoThe strongest man on Earth can build the Great Wall of China. That sentence has the same fallacy as yours.
- knewter 3y agoA better analogy would be "man who invented much about modern walls, invented JavaMortar, and has built infrastructure around maintaining the open source wall in question, can maintain wall he's been maintaining." Really rolls off the tongue
