All languages that exist today are being frozen, and no new languages are expected. Is this the end of humanity's evolution?

hope is eternal. REJOICE. Some non-Whites have just invented a non-grammatical language, WOKE, which is for non-men, non-racists, and assorted non-Americans. Disagreers are not welcome, even though negativism is of the essence of WOKEISM. WOKERS are infallible, as this very word [IN-...] implies.

Computer languages...
In effect little different to ordinary language,
some, like visual basic, are even quite human-looking.
They use syntax, and very strict punctuation.
One spelling mistake, and the entire application crashes.
Countless numbers of them, growing at a radical rate...

Such languages exist only when there's a whipping language-boy. They must have some scapegoats for their language to sustain pleasantly. But not only them. Take me, for example. I don't know English well. My speaking is also destructive since I ignore many rules. At least I feel sorry for that, but who cares; it doesn't make things better. When such great men were as Markus Aurelius or Cicero they cared about language, and created immortal speeches. Today's speeches are made by politician PR speechmakers - the mortal speeches for the mortals. |

I haven't even started reading it, however it's been there for more, than a year. All this is complicated for me. I guess my bones got too rusty as well as my brains :) |

learning the basics will enable you to give your descendants that first step
which makes ALL the difference
I am using Blender 3D which is written in python, and its less complicated if you want it to be, its great for little physics simulations without much code at all.
But so far the inbuilt objects are not that accurate,
I am trying to convince them to convert my basic code into python.
Python itself is not all that user-friendly, but very powerful. The various "BASIC" languages are much easier to read and write.
GWbasic and/or BasicA might be an easier place to start.

I was trying to write in a satirical way, but I should rather explain: today in thw USA there is a demented population that insists on using WOKE. Forbidden: man, woman, boy, girl, mother, father, he, she, male, female -- any word that suggests GENDER! /// In the proposed NEW WORLD ORDER, you must not speak any language that has masculine and feminine endings... because neutral things would be offended.... |

I don't think that we have the necessary backwardness and barriers to interconnectedness and contact with other peoples for languages to diverge in the way that they traditionally have. The Romance languages for instance could only diverge from Latin when the Western Roman Empire fell and different parts of it were conquered by different people isolating those regions from one another sending them on different evolutionary trajectories and adding different influences to them.
If anything, since the rise of the centralized nation state I think that languages and dialects are going extinct more than newly emerging as countries have tried to have standardized national languages. But who knows, perhaps our globalized civilization will collapse like Rome tomorrow and we'll have a new dark age. In that case there will be many new languages that will develop from English in North America alone. The continent is too big for them not to.
But no, we are not at the end of civilizational evolution because history is not a straight line from barbarism to technological advancement. It's cyclical with civilizations rising and falling and rising again. Most cultures in history understood that until Christianity came along and imagined that progress was actually possible and so caused the West to actually try and do it. But the original conviction that history is cyclical is the truth though the Christian idea of progress is very beneficial to humanity as a whole.
