Wish lisp have these like jupyter integration.

And my first computer lecture many decades ago is really about how he hated fortran and why FORTRAN is still not dead (Mainly negative view due to haveGOTO that time). And it is still not dead.

Common Lisp has had Jupyter integration for a while.

First cl-jupyter (https://github.com/fredokun/cl-jupyter) which is now in maintance mode and now common-lisp-jupyter (https://github.com/yitzchak/common-lisp-jupyter).

Here is a notebook I did awhile back with cl-jupyter: https://github.com/mmaul/clml.tutorials/blob/master/CLML-Win...

Lisps were at the genesis of the original concept, it was called Lisp Machine, and the experience can still be replicated when using commercial Common Lisps like Allegro.

Fortran has been continuously updated, supports OOP, modules, and even generics.

Sadly, AFAIK, BLAS hasn't been updated to use generics. It would be so nice to have support for integer vector/matrix operations in there (not that it would require generics to have that, but it could be easier to implement integer support with it, though I suspect that for efficiency reason it might not be used in the end).

To be fair, it does not look much like it was many decades ago.
