This reminds me of the "submit your own PR if you want this feature so bad" mentality that I see on a fair few open source projects. For most people, this isn't feasible. Creating a new programming language, let alone one that could one-up JavaScript any time soon, would be a difficult task. I think people like to point out the flaws of JavaScript because there isn't really a major alternative, it is the de facto web language.

Please consider a not so deeply technical solution. You can do more than creating yet another programming language. I bet if you did, the next rant would be about your language and its shortcomings. Even a very small constructive contribution to the discussion could be very helpful and have a big impact.

A decade long series of rants doesn't help at all.
