I think the popularity of Go and Rust show that statically-typed languages are having a resurgence. As a long-time C programmer (with significant bits of bash and perl on the side), I've really enjoyed learning Go. But the responsiveness to developing new language features has been _sooo sloooow_. We'll have to see in 10 years if this turns out to have been a wise decision or not.
