Hope springs eternal. There seems to be a strong movement to make Rust replace both C++ and C#. I should have taken python more seriously when I first saw it in Linux about 20 years ago, given the fever dream that grips the world now.
If I can rekindle the joy I used to have in software, I am going to just do game mods and Android FOSS app development.
Right now the thought of doing development practically gives me hives. Talk about PTSD. The thing I loved since writing assembly on a commodore 64 now brings dread.
I suppose the fact (ha!) that I no longer have to know a programming language (but I have to have several memorized to get through the first interview) should make it easy.
I have to admit my brief forays into local LLM assisted programming impressed me. I just can’t motivate right now to “get serious”.
PEEK and POKE mostly, and typing hex codes into a special editor. Remember the games and utilities in the magazines? Also, a page of basic 2.0 code to draw a line And the amazing never before available Sprite Development.

Remember when Java was going to replace C/C++?
Also, machincode before getting an assembler on the C64! JMP=32 JSR=96
