so one thing about programming languages is at the end of the day, they can all generally accomplish the same things. they are all turing complete and generally capable of expressing programs that any of the others can.
as others in this thread have said, many patterns you learn within one programming language will transfer to others. some personal context, i attended and then taught at a coding bootcamp for a year about a decade ago, saw over 300 students and have been doing software engineering since. it was full time and the students would learn ruby basics over 4 weeks and then would be able to do the same things in javascript in a few days. that said, those languages are pretty similar but i hope it makes the point.
so my main suggestion is to start with a general purpose, syntactically simple language. the less syntax and overhead in the language, the more you will be able to focus on the fundamentals of programming and less on jumping through the hoops of the language you're working with. stay away from typed languages for at least the first few months unless you really really only want to do low level stuff.
some languages i think you should consider: ruby, python, javascript. they are relatively similar for a beginner. python has more usage in data heavy scenarios due to it's extensive data libraries. ruby's whole mantra is being a joy to write. javascript is simple but that also means you don't get much help from it out of the box. consider it as a first/second language mainly if you are interested in websites.
and this is the case in literally every field. to start discussing anything seriously, there needs to be well-defined terminology and that terminology will often re-use existing words while also deviating from how laypeople may use or understand them.
i think it's reasonable to include those things in standard of living. their standard afforded them the choice to do those things, so if you don't feel like you are afforded those same choices while living at a similar level of comfort then imo the standard has decreased.
I would really recommend that you consider getting a custom domain for your email. many are not that expensive and if you do, then you can just point that domain at whatever email provider you want without changing your email on the services.
in this scenario, it would let you setup that domain on another provider and at least get access to any emails going forward.
Edit: for those who don't want to click youtube, the person designs a chess board to play real-time chess. each piece has a movement cooldown enforced by the board which uses magnets to restrict you from moving pieces while they are on cooldown.
and not only that. in your example of choosing to address the hull first over the engine, the engine problem is actually prescient. when taking time to debate about AGI, it is to debate a hypothetical future problem over real current problems that actually exist and aren't getting enough attention to be resolved. and if we can't address those, why do we think we'll be able to figure out the problems of AGI?

don't worry your data will still be sent to the cloud, they're just offloading the compute to you.
in seriousness, i agree local is probably the future. just hopefully in a way that consumers own their data.
it creates a process that makes copies of itself. then those copies make copies... until your computer runs out of resources and crashes

so you do test on animals

AI is a classic case of Gell-Man amnesia
and not just too many words, but first complaining about meaningless repetition and then immediately says hey just repeat these words exactly
I'm really sorry this happened to you OP.

i like to imagine it says
this feels pretty similar to what you're describing https://youtu.be/y7VtSK23_Jg

i think this time they want people to revolt so they can put it down violently

guess they forgot the "don't make any mistakes" at the end of the prompt
