I'm learning with Java. I like that I don't have to think about memory management compared with C or even Rust. I dislike how slow it is.

I'm also using HTML, CSS, and Go for a bunch of static websites I'm building with Hugo. I love HTML. I like CSS only in the context of Bootstrap. Otherwise I dislike the way my style-sheet documents turn out. And I haven't really tried to understand Go's whole "context" thing because I want to use Rust. This last comment is why I want to finish my current projects and then immediately leave Hugo for Zola.

I also just finished learning about and using R and the Tidyverse for a couple of statistics projects. I really dislike R... On the other hand, I love the Tidyverse with my whole heart. It's been one of my favorite experiences with any language.
