So, what people don't get is that you somebody to do `go, python, java` when C, Cobol and other existed.
You see the major success, but not the attempts in the middle.
For people like us that do languages, not just for fun, we are trying to be the NEXT on that list. And if somehow one of this languages break it the barrier is because, for certain, they are better than most.

> But I just wonder about the real world uses and actual stories behind new and lease known languages
A little secret: Creating a new language is the ONLY way to make a paradigm work at scale. You can't do OOP in C, not practically.
So, in my case (https://tablam.org), I have used +20 programming languages (including SQL dialects that inflate it!), for real, for work, for pay. None is close to solve the needs of build business apps, and the one that was close (FoxPro) die too long ago. None is relational, none is good for data manipulation, or make data reports, etc.
"None" here is too string of a word, right? All that other languages I have used have shipped code! So they "works!", but none allow me to truly embrace the relational paradigm, aka: deal with data.
