Last year I used mainly crystal. This year I’m thinking pharo smalltalk, if I can pick it up in time

I also want to do visualizations, not sure how possible that is with smalltalk.

TypeScript for me. I’ve got an interview for a primarily TypeScript position coming up this week so would like to brush up on its quirks.

If the interview doesn’t go well, then I’ll probably switch to Go, though. I’ve been really enjoying Go for hobby programming.

Some Mixture of Haskell and Python and maybe Rust if my friends get me to join them.

Haskell! Because it fits the way I think nicely, and I don’t want to write in anything else :)

I’m going to try with an awful language so I can better criticise it in future.

Go, out of the languages I use at work, it is the one I learned most recently and have the least experience with. I am not planning to get on the leader board (or even comple more than the first week of challenges), but it is an excuse to get more comfortable with the standard library.
