hard agree. I’m sick of all the “it doesn’t matter what languages you learn” talk because it’s just not true. yes, there are broad foundational skills that apply to nearly every language, but beyond that, you’re specializing, and the way the language you choose is designed will stick with you. I’ve seen the concept that you get accents in programming languages just as much as spoken ones, and I think it’s totally true - when you learn a new language, you’re bringing your habits and assumptions from the last one. so to be honest I don’t care about the language design opinions of people who only know dynamically typed languages
