Every so often I entertain rather disturbing concepts as I look over the large and varied landscape of computer programming, and this particular question "Are computer languages irrelevant?" popped up one day as I was thinking about clouding computing, web services and the landscape of code that we all as programmers find ourselves deeply enmeshed.

I voted up because it worth it to read; yet I am not totally agreed. I think compilers and runtimes will be more and more like operating systems (complex/distributed caching abilities for code/information on code(reflection) and so on) and we are mature enough to admit that syntax matters not because it necessarily brings more power but for sure minds are different and I think we will go through that far more than what Ruby has done.
