To make your comment more explicit: The parent states that Java is legacy now. But given your examples above that would mean that java and many other languages are legacy now.

Of course any language could be legacy in the future but historically the probability that one of those future legacies is a hot new language now is at least equal with that of an established language currently still widely used to write significant production software.



There are very few languages (two at most) used to write more new software now than Java.
