No. I also can't name six philosophers who write about atheism. In fact, I know only one: Keith Augustine. Michael Huemer is an atheist, but, as far as I know, he mainly writes about anarcho-capitalism and sometimes about veganism, rarely does he write about atheism. Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris are not philosophers.

Then how can you say this is a ‘major topic’ in philosophy? The Wikipedia article on ‘Philosophy of Language’ lists nine major topics in the field and the relationship between programming and natural language isn’t among them.

RE: Relationship between programming languages and natural languages
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;
Thus mellowed to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.

I suspect it's an unhealthy, abusive relationship.
