I'm a small business programmer. I love solving tough problems with Python and PHP. If you like what you're seeing, you should probably follow me here on dev.to and then checkout my blog.
I'm not arguing against learning multiple languages or stacks.
Everyone has a limited amount of time to devote to learning and all I'm proposing is that people think about what would benefit them the most and learn that instead of blindly following something misquoted from a book written almost 20 years ago.
I didn't think you were, I just wanted to explicitly make the point that learning a second language is hugely beneficial. I agree that trying to learn one every year is pretty misguided.

Cool. It's hard to communicate clearly in comments.
Cheers.
