It has to be Spanish and javaScript. and lately i been having dreams about nodejs (I do not know if that is a language or could be considered a dialect of javaScript lol) and Python has of late been whispering sweet nothings to me

I'm oscillating between the complexity and elegance of Rust and the simplicity of Golang.

Regardless, each language is a tool and should be treated accordingly. Use the right tool for the job. At my work I'm doing I'm doing a bunch of AWS Lambda functions and I mainly tend to use Javascript for them. The reason being that it is lightweight, pretty easy to debug and has good enough performance for what I need.

Depends on what I work with, but if I would have to pick a single one it would be Clojure.

I discovered recently Python and decided to switch from javascript to Python!

I love it and what we can do with (everything!)

I've written a post about my choice: Why I chose Python

Somebody told me after that : "Try Ruby, it's even better!"
