Hey Visual Basic is still there, and last time I checked it was still the goto option to do OLE Automation.

RoR is no longer at its peak, but is still have its marginal stable share of the web, while PHP gets the lion part[1]

Ok, Lotus Notes is really relic from an other era now. But it’s not a PL, so not the same kind of beast.

Well, also LLMs are different beast compared to PL. They actually really are the things that evocate the most the expression "taming the beast" when you need to deal with them. So it indeed as far away as possible of engineering as one can probably use a computer to build any automation. Maybe to stay in scientific realms ethology would be a better starting point than a background in informatics/CS to handle these stuffs.
