Some people just don't get it. When you meet friends who are either non technical or very new to programming, all they ask you is what language do you use.

The language is important but not everything. It's what you do with it that matters. Just because you know python, doesn't mean that you can do machine learning. Even simply asking what do I do is better than that!

The language is just a tool! Learn to be language agnostic please. Be a programmer, not a code monkey

    "learn to be agnostic language"....

    I totally agree with you. And that was something that I've been aware since I read a couple on books (as I don't remember accurately which one was): The Pragmatic Programer, and Code Clean.
