> That's the equivalent of saying that a major problem with NodeJS is you have to pick which version to install before you deploy.

Are you saying this isn't a major problem with Node? In my experience it's a problem with every language that requires a separate runtime.

The JVM is the worst of two worlds because I have the build complexity of an AOT compiler to make my deployment artifact and the deployment complexity of an interpreted language to get the correct runtime pre-installed.



You do realize Java has maintained it's backwards compatibility making choosing your deployment runtime significantly easier.
