I think Kotlin and (eventually) Swift comes very close, but both have compatibility as a high priority, which complicates the languages a bit. But I'm hoping these languages will be able to serve as gateway drugs into the world of ML-style programming, and that we'll soon see a no-compromise ML-style focusing on the full experience.
