Probably Ruby. For some reason … no, that’s a lie … playing with Exherbo, Gentoo and Funtoo, but mostly Exherbo, made me loathe Python. However, everyone in the data processing arena seems to use it, so I’m bound to have to change my ways eventually! For “Ruby”: read “Python”.
My days of needing high-speed low level languages are long gone. I learned C on Borland C++ back in 1990 to price derivatives on 386s. Loved it.
If I mess around with any language it’s for fun. I intend to commit suicide, when my time is done, by the percussive head trauma that learning Haskell will cause me.
See, I love Haskell, and the reason I’d choose Rust for my one language is the feeling that in principle anything I can do in Haskell I can do in Rust, with a little extra percussive head trauma; but I can never have the control in Haskell to do the beautiful efficiency I can do with Rust if I ever actually did any programming.
