I really enjoyed reading about Austral, though it is still really early, that was discussed on HN this week: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34168452

Agreed, Austral looks really cool, and the author's explanation of "what a linear type is and why we use them" was the clearest I've ever heard.

I was surprised it uses an Ada-like syntax -- I thought the standard wisdom for new languages was to either imitate C or Python ;-)
