The Hundred-Year Language

Hello, I will give my opinion about the article titled: “The Hundred-Year Language” by Paul Graham, this article focus on the future of programming languages, it is interesting the capacity of evolution that technology has in many areas, such as entertainment, education, hardware, etc, but in the software area you can be surprised.

"Languages evolve slowly because they're not really technologies. Languages are notation." - Paul Graham.

Programming languages evolve slowly as the author of the article says, this is because some old programming languages were made with a good design and a good thinking of future so they can be useful and still powerful in these days, and even, if you were thinking about flexibility and evolution of these programming languages, this can be evolved in a newer version or programming language, this is that some newer languages are emerging with features that take advantage of their ancestors and implement others that become the most powerful, thanks to this, a programming language can be considered as a 'Hundred-year programming language' as the author said and we need to consider all these aspects in order to be able to break the box and contribute to this evolution of programming languages.
