And my first computer lecture many decades ago is really about how he hated fortran and why FORTRAN is still not dead (Mainly negative view due to haveGOTO that time). And it is still not dead.
Lisps were at the genesis of the original concept, it was called Lisp Machine, and the experience can still be replicated when using commercial Common Lisps like Allegro.
Fortran has been continuously updated, supports OOP, modules, and even generics.
Sadly, AFAIK, BLAS hasn't been updated to use generics. It would be so nice to have support for integer vector/matrix operations in there (not that it would require generics to have that, but it could be easier to implement integer support with it, though I suspect that for efficiency reason it might not be used in the end).
