    It’s also ridiculous how often I see „Java“ instead of „JavaScript“ in job listings.

    Edit: Not trying to judge Java here, this is purely about recruiters not knowing the difference, posting jobs for Java devs when they need JS devs

      Maybe they have a ton of different machines and need an app that works in any environment?

      Agreed, why haven’t we killed java off? It’s terrible and there are replacements. At least with JavaScript it’s terrible but a monopoly.
