x86 in the sense that it's part of the Web DNA like x86 is part of the PC DNA (forever?); from many other points of view it's more like C (e.g. in that many people actually write _and_ like it, which fewer would claim of x86 ;-).

I'd be really interested in what ways JavaScript is supposed to be lower-level than Python. But in any case, if you keep track of JavaScript 1.5 < 1.n < 2.0, it's quite apparent that it's growing more Pythonic by the n ... I expect full & successful convergence any decade now.
