I don't think your plan to get more serious is pointed at the right end or means.

You don't point criticism at programming languages necessarily. Because, later you'll want to find an ecosystem best suited to achieve a specific task.

If a later task becomes a serious consideration, then you'll seriously consider the best placed language to complete that task. Consequent language quibbles might be path of the course.

For example, working on Android is only going to be effective through a handful of languages such as Java, Kotlin, C#, JavaScript, …

Breaking new ground with another language pointed at Android would be like climbing Mt Everest without all the usual equipment. Sure it's a challenge, but is it the challenge you want?

Learn any language that helps you learn, but that's only as a means to that (learning) end.

Get an air compressor with a gun. The air travels so fast that only light things pick up. You can direct a lot of dust straight out the door or window. It's a Bernoulli's principle thing.

I can't wear my glasses around people because I get an overload of eye contact. I mostly wear them for driving or cycling.

Strategically, the idea of commando insertion is usually successful. It's hanging around to defend and control that becomes a nightmare.

A broken clock is right twice a day. Trump's MO is TACO, which just happens to correlate with a shock and awe operation.

We can't assume a ground assault is going to outshine all the other biggly clownshow points.

But heck they're derivative! Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates share one very high functioning trait. They all work on the most derivative product that has everyone-with-money's attention.

Elon learnt it young grokking a shitty version of space invaders.

Gates was riffing on other common software solutions from a young age.

Bezos was ploughing all in on the online book seller experience.

They all took the world by milquetoast innovations.

Jobs was different.

Most of the people I meet haven't even heard of enshittification before, and they don't think the experience is any more worse than usual. It's like they've never had a good computer experience in their life because there's always been the Windows struggle.
