Why concatenative programming matters (2012)
Sounds like something you'd rather not work in directly, but could be useful as an intermediate representation for a compiler (?)

Some compilers do indeed use a stack-based IR (which is a concatenative system). Also mentioned in the blog post are JVM and CPython bytecode.
More common, though, is Static Single Assignment.

I was thinking more in terms of supercombinators, lambda lifting, etc.
