I think normal people are actually aware what JS and HTML are. Most people are more tech savvy than we give them credit - or credit they might give themselves.

I think normal people don't know the difference between google and a web browser. Even many of the ones that used to understand the difference forgot some time after their primary computing device became a locked down phone.

Yes for normal teenagers in the early 2000s or so (MySpace encouraged experimentation and there were many sites where people would upload copy/pastable javascript snippets for their sites), outside of that group I'm not so sure.

Maybe 1 in 10000 people who aren't developers.
