depends on use case, i don't think one language can fit all cases. 100% correctness is required for systems, but it is a hindrance in non-critical systems. or robust type systems require high compilation times which hurt iterating on the codebase.

systems? rust - but it is still far from perfect, too much focus on saving few keystrokes here and there.

general purpose corporate development? c# - despite current direction post .net 5 of stapling together legacy parts of .net framework to .net core. it does most things good enough.

scripting, and just scripting? python.

web? there's only one, bad, option and that's js/ts.

most hated ones are in order: js, go, c++, python.

go is extremely infuriating, there was a submission on HN that perfectly encapsulated my feelings about it, after writing it for a while: https://fasterthanli.me/articles/i-want-off-mr-golangs-wild-...

Under a submission like this you picked Rust, that is neat.
