Computers claim to streamline everything from feeding yourself to finding a spouse, but they mask a chaotic scrum of languages, dialects, and protocols, most of which predate the machines they run on by decades. In recent years, a number of companies have tried to create new computer languages to bridge the gap. Mozilla created its open source Rust language,  Apple announced Swift in 2014, Google has been working its own language called Go, and Facebook is slowly at work on its own language called D, first developed by Seattle entrepreneurs and programmers Walter Bright and Andrei Alexandrescu.
