Does this include all future invented programming languages?
No, the flip side of this wish is your knowledge is frozen in time to when you make the wish and can never be updated. You gradually become more and more outdated as you fail to grasp even the simplest of changes to all languages in current usage.
So I forever work on legacy systems.
Not ideal, but there's quite a bit of job security in it.
The upside to this is that you can still make good money as a legacy programmer. Just look at COBOL job listings.
