Comment on Ask HN: What are some good resources on the history of programming languages?

Comments

These might be obvious already (and hence redundant), but many computer history museums have sections covering software and programming language history.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_computing

Also try the Internet Archive (archive.org). It has a lot of "Programming History" stuff, but finding it can be painful:
