Just a kid with a computer here. I am familiar and have reached a reasonable level of fluency with javascript and python, with typescript being a somewhat satisfying switch I made.

It’s been 4 years, I haven’t touched another language. I wanna study something future proof and genuinely helpful. The reason I never went beyond js and py was because I already had everything I needed, I could make anything I wanted. I really want to dip my toes in the strong programming waters.

Can you suggest a language?

      Is C not reaching obsoletion? I haven’t heard a lot about it being used anywhere. I’ve only heard of clojure before, I’ll look at that!

        Linux is written in C. Many native extensions are written in C. If you are able to program in Clojure and use Java native interface and C to write performance critical code, you are covered on all ends.
