Java isn't the future - statically typed languages are inflexible and not human readable.

Python/Ruby/et al are the future. Already the PyPy interpreter is nearing native C speed in many of its tests. And I hear that the work on LLVM/Ruby interpreter is progressing very quickly - many are anticipating the replacement of Matz's implementation soon.

Death to overly verbose, human unfriendly languages!

The future is high level, interpreted human readable languages. The closer to pseudocode the better. Wink

Every programmer says their language of choice is the future. Big Grin

I don't think we'll ever have a perfect language which is both flexible and human readable. Java is very flexible, and you can read it if you understand Java (which you really should if you are programming it). You wouldn't try to read French without knowing a little French, so I don't understand why you think it is not human readable.

Personally I hate not having curly braces in programming languages. Blocks look (and read) far better if they are defined with curly braces rather than indentations. Plus, it is far easier to have free-form languages when you implement curly braces.
