IBM did that with PL/S. It was a system version of PL/I with no runtime and ability to decide how a function was compiled via annotations in that function. Kept getting updated but no public release. Here's a few more that you might find interesting for general usage that were proprietary or started internal: http://www.semdesigns.com/Products/Parlanse/index.html http://www.semdesigns.com/Products/Parlanse/index.html https://web.archive.org/web/20130303055647/http://www.foundationdb.com:80/white-papers/flow/ https://web.archive.org/web/20130303055647/http://www.founda... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pike_(programming_language) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pike_(programming_language) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roxen_(web_server) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roxen_(web_server) Parlanse is used in Semantic Designs' powerful toolkit. Flow was used to make a Spanner competitor, FoundationDB, that was good enough in some way for Apple to buy & pull off the market. Pike was used to build Roxen server that had significant advantages in its time period. A number of companies also used LISP and REBOL for their advantages with at least one asking LispWorks to do a real-time implementation for telecom or something. So, usually it pays to go with a common, often-crappy language with its ecosystem. However, doing one's own language with competitive edge does pay off at times. I think these days one can just do a DSL in Racket or Haskell on top of main language to negate benefits of totally rolling own stuff. People got far with it, though. Galois is on a roll with that in high-assurance systems with this as an example: https://ivorylang.org/ivory-introduction.html https://ivorylang.org/ivory-introduction.html So, just some fun examples of homebrew for you in return. :)
