Recommend me a programming language
Recommend me a programming language
I've been working with a Javascript (+ TypeScript) + Java + SQL stack for the last 10 years.
For 2024 I'd like to learn a new programming language, just for fun. I don't have any particular goals in mind, I just want to learn something new. If I can use it later professionally that'd be cool, but if not that's okay too.
Requirements:
- Runs on linux
- Not interested in languages created by Google or Apple
- No "joke languages", please
Thank you very much!
EDIT: I ended up ordering the paperback version of the Rust book. Maybe one day I'll contribute to the Lemmy code base or something :P Thank you all for the replies!!!

COBOL
A strangely effective option for young whippersnappers who want to maximize employability and income stream in “boring” tech. You’re not gonna be standing up many greenfield projects using that language - and likely speaking, you might go an entire career without ever touching a codebase younger than you are - but if your passions run towards Janitorial/Plumbing work with regards to code, it might be right up your alley.
It's a coding language I recommend to anyone wanting to code in finance. Banks like it's reliability I guess
