Well, taking it to extreme why care about any other than machine code?

As AI programming tools improve, we will have the second coming from what 4 GLs, RUP, CASE tools, and Japan's Fifth Generation Computer Systems were trying to achieve, each on its own way as the next evolution on programming abstractions.

LLMs are able to write racket. I have a fairly large project I've been vibecoding for the last 6 months. Models predating deepseek flash 0731 used to make paren mistakes and had a hard time. But now Opus 5.5 for example does not make any mistake writing clear racket code.

I wouldn't say we've settled on a specific set of languages

To add to this, I definitely wouldn't say we've converged on a set of languages in general either! Most of my backends are written in Scala of all things, and LLMs have no issue with it. If anything, the expressive type system is helpful for them.

You forgot about Python.

Have you found LLMs to be good at metalinguistic abstraction? I have used them a little bit for lisp programming but never once have I seen them introduce macro.

If someone posts a story about topic Y and a reply is "does anyone really care about topic Y?" I would expect it to be flagged and downvoted.

The answer is "yes". Obviously people still care. No need to resurrect a dead bad post.
