Algol and Oberon were garbage collected, but Pascal and Modula-2 weren't. Not sure about others (Euler? Modula-3? Oberon-2?)

Nim feels a lot more like Python than one would think just reading the descriptions. I can't put my finger on why, exactly - maybe the type inference that gives an almost duck-type experience, maybe the incredibly helpful dogfooding community; I'm not sure.
