Very very true, languages are tools; part of the reason I want to pick a new one up is to expand how I think when designing solutions - each new tool opens new possibilities or techniques

Quite a pragmatic way of looking at it but I definitely agree with you

That's a very nice goal. Learning a new language is always a very interesting experience.

Personally, I try to learn new languages which are different of what I use everyday, to learn a maximum. That's my only criteria.

I wrote about how to learn a new language here if you're interested.

That's a good way of scoping it, I'll definitely take a look thanks!
