The popularity of Rust has caused a lot of people to start taking safety more seriously. Ada is the safety language for everything except memory and thread safety (they're pretty safe still, but not completely like in Rust). I think some of it also comes from the number of new programming languages that have come out over the last few years. It's common for people to point at Ada as a reference for how to address problems that come up in C-like languages since Ada already solved so many problems in the 80's.
