This is the programming future I dread, with stats to show slop since 2026-07-01:
"Almost every popular language is now substantially developed using LLMs. Particularly notable are C# and Ruby (both approximately one third of recent commits) and Julia (over half!). The languages that stand out in retaining their humanity are Chicken Scheme, Perl, Lua, Clojure, and – perhaps surprisingly for a project so closely associated with Oracle, a company who have gone all-in on hyperscale data centres and “AI” in everything – Java."
