A technical and non-technical article on the development of the Ada programming language.

Well it's essentially a PR piece, says lots of reasons why Ada is better than everything without actually showing any concrete examples

The Wikipedia article has some good stuff here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ada_(programming_language)

I'm very aware of what Ada is like (I was doing my thesis on compiler design back when it was still mostly a creature of committees) - I was more criticising the article, not the language

Ahh ok
