I do not choose a language, the solution chooses a language.
TBH, I do a lot of Java right now, but I'm pretty good with C#, VB :pteew: and I've been doing a wee bit of PHP recently too. If you pay me to maintain a legacy COBOL system I can do that too, for the right money.

Yeah, that's how I got into Ruby on Rails for the last year now. I've always wanted to get into web programming but tend to wait until someone pays me to learn, haha. So, it happened that I'm learning RoR rather than say, ASP.NET / Razor, but from what I see, Razor and the whole MVC - ASP.NET thing "stole" a lot of good ideas from RoR, so I suspect my skills are transferable easily enough. Besides the fact that a lot of web programming actually has to be done in Javascript!

Nah, it's about Java. I've already been there. Next week I'll be in Sumatra instead.

I think the habit of not reading terms and conditions as really caused me also not to read specifications while acquiring softwares.
I want to expand my knowledge-base to programming smartphones (Windows Phone in particular) so I rushed to download the Windows Phone SDK which was about 1.6GB. Let's start installing, oh no! Meant for only 64bit systems . Wasted time, resources, and data bundle
