Julia.
COBOL, because I loathe myself and don't want to be happy
I haven't programmed anything for years and it was all self learned so I'll always have a soft spot for delphi.
R. The Rstudio ide is awesome and the data wrangling packages are unmatched. It's also pretty fast as long as your dataset fits in your RAM.
Go
It's like C with better syntax and without memory management annoyances. It also comes with a decent standard library and making concurrent programs is a breeze. As a bonus it generates static binaries which, granted, are big but in most cases can be copied to any other Linux workstation and executed directly.
VBA because it plays nicely with Microsoft apps , especially Excel. It also plays nicely with SolidWorks, which is the primary software that i use
Favorite? Kotlin generally speaking, but I use Python the most and like it quite much as well. Can't beat Python's time for zero to something useful running and you will find bindings and frameworks for anything.
C++ for anything performance sensitive, or running anything on my Synology NAS.
I like writing mostly just script. I enjoy writing stuff in bash and lua. Its simple and quick. I have been trying to learn some C to do things with mirocontrollers but its a slow process....
I like natural speech. Its quite chaotic but if you know how to write it well, it works
Bash for quick scripts, Ruby for some smaller scripts, Golang has been a favourite as of late due to integration into the ecosystem with k8s,p8s, envoy..
