It seems like the “damp cloth of Java” that has been plastered all over the programming landscape the last 20 years is finally being lifted. I admit, I do dislike Java …immensely. And not only on technical grounds, but even more based on what I perceive as it’s community worshipping complexity for it’s own sake. Of course IMHO.

These days new and truly interesting languages are all over the place. Rust and Go are two examples with a lot of momentum, although I personally choose Nim over both.

And Smalltalk is still my “super productive dynamically typed” language of choice, but I just learned about a language that I really think is going places…
