It's hard to argue with this article - it's self evident that languages lock us into abstractions that aren't powerful enough to comfortably support the increasingly ambitious applications of code. Object oriented programming was a big step because it's so heavily modelled on hierarchies - since found to be one of the most important principles in human reasoning. I'm no expert in the area, but I'd love to hear ideas on other human reasoning principles or models that a language could be influenced by (particularly if you know about neuroscience or AI).
