This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What programming language returns a 500 error because it fails?

A 500 error code is a critical server failure, It isn't something that can happen because a piece of JavaScript failed.

Any programming language that runs on the web server and doesn't gracefully handle its errors. There are many web servers implemented in Javascript, but it could also be Java, it could be Perl, it could even be C/C++ if someone is being masochistic.

Couldn't be a compiled language, those wouldn't even get to the point where you send a request.
