[Baypiggies] OT: The Future Of Programming Languages

[Ian Zimmerman]

Tony> Could we survive with say only 10 or 20 languages?

10, no.  20, maybe.  There are a few situations where more or less the
same programming style is served by multiple languages or dialects and
some of them should just die.  (Hello, PHP!  Hello, Common Lisp!)
