While we've been doing pottery for about 30,000 years, and woodworking for perhaps 10,000 years, we've only been programming (digital) computers for about 75 years or so.
We're still figuring out how to do it. Trying new programming language ideas is a big part of that... I started with Fortran 77, and man oh man am I glad I can program in Go now.

Thank you language experimenters!
