Language interop in 2017 is still pretty dismal.

C is still the common denominator, you'd think it'd be easy, but it's hard. Years ago when LLVM was showing promise and Google was going to get Python running on top of it I was hopeful.

I guess nowadays it's a better design to run separate processes and have your languages communicate out of process (pipes, http, etc) rather than in-process.
