Giggled, imagining all those muscle memory typos. It took me a while to start typing "myself" properly instead of "mysql", thanks to Postgres.

YavaScript for the language, Yira for issue tracking. YetBrains for IDEs.

How about JECMAScript?

You still get to abbreviate it like JS, use the filename extension ".js", etc.

Too close to Yuck-ma-script.
