> electricity plugs haven't changed for hundred of years, that's a standard

Spoken like someone who's never felt the frustration of having a grounded plug and the only available sockets being two-prong.

As far as I can tell, the US didn't start standardizing the power plug until the 1940s, and the current three-prong system doesn't come about until the 1960s. The actual receptacles themselves have had improvements to them over the decades, the most recent one coming about apparently in 2016.

> I wonder if languages like RUST or GO will ever become ISO standards..

I doubt it, but mostly because everyone I know on the ISO standardization committees have expressed frustration with ISO (the organization) in ways that I haven't seen for other standards bodies like Ecma.

Actually they have, depending on the country.

Haven't travelled much around Europe in the last decades, or had to deal with electricity projects, I gather.

Nowadays, due to the ways of ISO most languages end up going with ECMA, as ISO processes are considered somehow Jurassic.

However a resurgence in cold war like state of the world might indeed, bring us back to ISO as main driver for standardising languages instead of ECMA or open source, due to the way it ensures specifications and implementations aren't tainted by foreign politics.
