True this post is about JS Full Stack but the argument is valid that you should promote other programming languages and not just stick to JS. That's the main problem. JS is a crippling language. It doesn't do much to teach you about OOP or good programming techniques. You can get better mileage with PHP or Java or even Go. In other words, don't tell others that you should just "settle" for one thing; there's many other tools and languages to explore that can be useful for certain use cases. Node.js for example is single threaded, doing async operations using the event loop, whereas you can get better async performance with something like Go routines or even Kotlin coroutines. PHP is now more powerful than JS and should definitely be promoted above JS for certain use cases, where as other things like maybe WebSockets is where JS shines above PHP. Again the point is, definitely promote PHP or any other language without hating on JS as all have their pros and cons.
And as for Cobol, well, you'd be surprised to see what you can still do with Cobol nowadays. Sure it's not useful for modern web dev but you can still get some pretty secure programs done with Cobol
