Research languages like Mesa/Cedar or Modula-3.
We had a dark age of too much VM and scripting languages, and only now getting back how computing could have looked like.
For example, given Anders background imagine how .NET would have been if it was fully AOT compiled and the same low level features from Delphi since version 1.0.
Or if C++ Builder wasn't the only surviving example to RAD development with C++, before others started to build on top of LLVM toolchain.
