It’s not racism of you believe those people were born into a lower caste because of their actions in a previous life. It is their punishment and thus you should treat them like shit!
You want to translate COBOL to another language? That exists as a commercial product! The complexity is not the syntax though, it is the environment and subsystems surrounding the code. A lot of COBOL is designed for mainframe systems, and emulating a mainframe is complex.
You also end up with code that is still written as if it were COBOL. The syntax for COBOL is the easy part and that is all you can easily replace. Afterwards you’re still stuck with the way of working and mindset, both of which are quite peculiar.
The company I work for recently looked at all of this, and we decided not to translate our code.
As others already said, Chromium definitely isn’t the first or only one to use a blue logo. There is a theory that colours influence the way we perceive a brand, for example this article explains that idea.
Blue is supposed to convey trustworthiness and maturity. A lot of companies like that, so you tend to see a lot of blue.
You may also be experiencing the frequency illusion. If you specifically noticed the blue in Chromium’s logo, it would make sense that you suddenly started noticing the blue in other logos as well!
