Good list, but no Dart? With flutter taking off? I agree with the others outside of maybe Rust. I think Rust is a great language, but I don't think it's a must learn language today. This industry is fast iterating and there's just simpler languages today that you've listed that would get the job done.

Yes, but for system programmers, Rust is great alternative compared to C/C++ as I mentioned in the who should learn section of it. Others in the list will not cut it in such demanding use cases where performance and memory safety is paramount.
