>The jobs for Ada are dying
Yes but 90% of its dying happened long ago. It's basically in hospice now. To the extent it still lives, it's mostly in niches like aerospace.
What would it take for Ada to gain wider acceptance? Tooling is a big one. For the longest time the ecosystem was difficult for anyone who wasn't either at university or working for an aerospace company/military contractor to get into. I believe that's changed somewhat but not enough. It also needs a niche that appeals to the more casual developer. Part of the reason why C# is big in gaming is due to Unity. Ada needs something similar, in both terms of a popular niche and a widely available tool.
