To add to this, I definitely wouldn't say we've converged on a set of languages in general either! Most of my backends are written in Scala of all things, and LLMs have no issue with it. If anything, the expressive type system is helpful for them.

Absolutely agree. I’d take a guess that a decent chunk, if not majority of “business” applications probably still exist in either Django or Spring Boot. Should all of those be rewritten now “just ‘cause”?
