The part of norvig.com/21-days.html with "Learn at least a half dozen programming languages" might be relevant.
Rails allows you to have an idea of web dev.
Go is being used by for parallel programming.

Which seems more relevant to you? These could give you new perspectives and give you a head way on different type of job profiles. Are you doing this for job? Are you doing this for a new perspective on how software can be built? The choice depends on these answers

New perspectives mostly: learning something that can expand how I think when creating solutions, it's why my preference was leaning to Go, the promise of easier parallel processing seems very enticing!
