(unironically) rewrite everything in Java

the entire computer security industry would go bankrupt overnight.

C-niggers think they are so clever for messing with memory pointers in 2019 when that kind of drudgery has been completely automated for decades. it's like thinking you're manly for building a skyscraper by moving bricks with your bare hands instead of using a crane.

JVM is widely used in industry. But its usage is unevenly distributed. There are still many applications where security is crucial, but using something as heavyweight as JVM is not an option.

To fill those niches we need something with comparable performance and runtime requirements as C, but safer and stricter.

Ada is a dead language. D seems to have hit a wall. Rust: maybe, if the designers don't fuck it up. Rust also needs more commercial supporters, and a well known `anchor' project that helps it gain recognition. Using Rust to build bits and pieces of Firefox is not enough.
