Just had a wild thought:

Have we made our last major programming languages?

@marcoarment absolutely not. There’s still a need for languages that reduce the amount of boilerplate, increase safety without performance overhead, and with no reliance on the random-code generators. Especially when Anthropic/OpenAI will need to start earning profits from LLMs

@oskar @marcoarment I honestly believe that Go comes close in terms of being fast (faster than C# or Java, but not as fast as C/C++), being relatively easy to pick up (similar to Python), not being too verbose and instead, being pretty concise (despite the way they handle errror handling).

I think it's the perfect blend, but still has to take its time to mature in terms of libraries and frameworks. For example there aren't any top-tier GUI toolkits for it, currently.
