Wait, what? Your 6th grade teacher was teaching you JS before it was even released?

maybe they meant Java, and not actually 30 years.

I am 41, JS was released 29 years ago; 6th grade is 11—12 years old so my math might be a little off. But it was JS, I remember because it was new and i thought it was so cool to do alerts, LOL.
