I wonder what he considers to be good languages. Is he a C++ diehard, or a Haskell purist?
Perhaps he's saying all current languages suck in that respect, and that the future of programming is languages that don't let you write unoptimizable code.
I guess programmers won't be allowed to write optimized code anymore, as optimized code is unoptimizable :)
Okay and I have somehow said something terrible because I didn't pick up on this hilarious dubious sarcasm in a post about benchmarks.
