The most productive language ever designed was IMO Visual Basic. Bill Gates loved it and the academic snobs at Microsoft hated it. I did some fairly interesting things with it in the 90’s.

I preferred PASCAL.
But learned about 20 or so languages.
I made my living as a systems engineer
so software design, hardware design, and repairs
of systems were my expertise.
I also build large sailboats from scratch.
I apprenticed as a shipwright when I was a kid.
I retired at age 55 in rural Hawaii.
