By now we understand that programming languages are tools, and we should use the right tool for the task. Programming and Software Engineering share some basic skills but are in many ways different tasks. We collectively spend a lot of time thinking about the design, usage, and development of programming languages, but we know that some are better for collaboration and maintenance than others. What language and ecosystem features underpin that distinction, and what features would a language focus on if it was specifically building for the Software Engineering use case? This talk will be a somewhat opinionated survey of the programming language options available today, with some predictions about what comes next.
