Academic liars

If they say they want to make programming better and they use C, teach C, or are not trying to replace C, they are a liar.
If they say C is a good imperative programming language and anything better must be functional or object-oriented, they are a liar.
If they say a simplified or less undefined C will make programming better, they are a liar.
If they say C is too hard to replace, they are a liar.

Electron on Docker is the perfect C-based stack: JavaScript, C++, C, and Go. Each application includes node.js, Chromium, and Linux.

JavaScript is based on Scheme but it's also based on C. They're starting to teach JavaScript and CS grads will think it's good because that's what they learned. They will think it's normal for their text editor to be written in JavaScript and have its own copy of Chromium.

When you choose Electron you get:
An entire copy of Chromium you’ll be shipping with your app
An interface that looks and feels nothing like the rest of the user’s OS
One of the slowest, least memory efficient, and most inelegant GUI application platforms out there (remember, we tolerate frontend web development because we have no choice, not because it is by any means good)
