imho, none of the mainstream languages are in such a state. from venerable C on one hand to Python to Rust to Erlang, even Fortran ! every single one of them is changing.

and, once again imho, this state of affairs is _exactly_ right as well. newer h/w, a deeper perspective on what works and what doesn’t all contribute significantly to this flux.

embrace the change :)
