I think this is the future. There will always be a few main do-anything languages, but we're going to see languages that fit certain use cases becoming very common. Historically languages were limited by their compilers and VMs. You ran Java or C++ because it took a large company to come up with a fast enough environment. Now we have the tools and experience that anyone can create a fast enough language in a few weeks. Also historically, if you wanted your code to run faster, the answer was pretty much always to move to a lower level language. Java too slow? Use C++. C++ too slow? Use C and/or optimize choke points with assembly. The tooling exists now that we can solve a lot of those same hard problems using languages and tools designed to solve them without reinventing the wheel in C or assembly.
