what do you guys think will be the next big programming language? like is rust going to replace c++? is something new going to come along?

There's nothing better on the horizon. We're entering a technological dark age.

What's stopping AI from just writing in assembly? Programming languages were made for it to be easier for humans to understand.

because AI is shit, that's why

AI isnt replacing anything anytime soon.

away from opinions on language taste and technical merit. and away from what used to be the usual growing challenges in the way of getting to the mainstream. i think the likes of rust got lucky their ecosystem got relatively established before slop spam started flooding in. so you can trivially distinguish between crate A and B that supposedly does Foo based on age and number of dependants before needing to dig deeper.
but how do you do that with an ecosystem that will need to bootstrap from scratch in the slop age? over-centralization (a la big-std) or anti-slop measures will backfire, as "smart" sloppers will develop ways to slip through, and you get all the downsides of the former if you go with it.
to make matters worse, there are those who embrace the slop, and even actively and openly use it in developing their languages and language implementations (and that would obviously follow to the ecosystem). and this specific trend is just starting.
(this comment is something i wanted to develop into a sort of a blog post full of examples i came across, with some usual peppered faux intellectualism ;);) that tickles some dev circles right. but i know i will be too lazy and bored to ever complete that.)

I think programming in Pysaar is starting to affect my thinking. Unironically starting to say shit like
>mmmm boob...very sexy yes show boobs baby, i want your vagne
to myself while alone in my apartment and laughing like a retard. Maybe it's just the isolation getting to me

C++

C++2 (by Herb; the next frontend/syntax on top of C++, not to be confused with C++26 and such)

Languages like Rust take so much time to become relevant you could have foresee it decade ago. There is nothing of sort being worked on, zig/jai/beef are memes, carbon will probably be killed before it gets released, etc.
There maybe some new scripting language like Go pop up in a span of year or two, but these come and go and do not really matter until they have 10+ years worth of libraries in their repos.

Difficulty of extracting meaning from its code alone.
