Have you heard of the language elm? The language elm is so safe that it is literally impossible to crash the program short of a memory error.

That's essentially the direction of modern programming languages. It's part of that feeling you get when programming haskell. Once you get it running, it just works. It's very different from the old paradigm where once you get it working, it can crash and you have to debug and do more to get it working better.
