JavaScript Is C
C was famously well designed. The problems it was well designed for have disappeared and its good ideas are so well understood that, like many great early works, they are cliches that can no longer be recognised for their brilliance because everyone is doing that.C's flaws are real, but they exist in the context of that design. For example, C has bad memory management because it was built when programmers had kilo- to mega- bytes to play with and needed perfect control.I'm not sure anyone could ever accuse anything related to the internet of being 'designed'. Even being standardised is a stretch. Javascript isn't C, because C is an extremely focused attempt to solve specific problems. Javascript simply does not attempt to tackle the same problems as C and it doesn't attempt to tackle them in the same way.It may be that they are both fail to solve the big problems in web development, but that is not really a thing worth comparing languages on.
