<div>Given that Pascal is strongly typed, easy to read and

Pascal opened the path with structured programming and hard typed
languages. <br>
<br>
But most languages nowadays are hard typed: Java, rust, go, c#,
swift... c is here to stay, but modern language got rid of c-like
types byte=char=bool=everything. In fact modern development uses
tools to control types in c and c++. <br>
<br>
I'm sorry to say than other language are better, handier without
sacrificing security and readability.<br>
A few points:<br>
<ul>
<li>Concurrency as part of the syntax of the language</li>
<li>Declaring a var when you need it</li>
<li>Tuples, so easy to return two values</li>
<li>Some functional programing</li>
</ul>
<p>And all those languages are backed by big corporations.</p>
<p>Lazarus is for Delphi nostalgic guys, like me. I'm sure 90% of
Lazarus users have worked professionally with Delphi before.<br>

<div>I wonder to which extent our current programming languages
will end as a middle coding layer.</div>

</div>
<div>AI based transpilers from Python to Pascal are each day
closer to reality.</div>
