Ask HN: Any alternative to JavaScript in sight?

I see people are writing mp3 decoders in JavaScript and what not. Javascript is probably lingua de franca of web (quoted Jeff Atwood). And in last 2 years we have used JS in ways like never before.

Does anyone feel that sooner or later JS will probably turn out to be not-so-suitable for stuff we want to do ?

Are there any attempts being made to provide an reliable alternative or can JS itself evolve ?
