- pessimizer 1y agoA lot of people haven't heard of pancreatic cancer either. Explain it to them and see if they approve. edit: IE javascript was probably responsible for at least half a dozen times their system has been ruined, and they know what tracking is.

- TheCoelacanth 1y agoThe statement was 99.9%, so that's not talking about average users; it's talking about the top 1% or less of users. If 99.9% percent of users don't know what JS is, that means even a majority of professional software developers don't know what it is.
