I don&#x27;t think I&#x27;ll ever love a programming language like I loved ANSI C in 1996. I slept with the K&amp;R book under my pillow. When my friends were getting into tarot cards &amp; crystals, I did divination by picking random passages from that book. It was my first &quot;real&quot; programming language, and the one that led me to understand computers on a completely different level.<p>Today, I guess I&#x27;d say JavaScript. I mostly write &quot;vanilla&quot; JavaScript with the help of grunt for minifying (switching to webpack soon). It has it&#x27;s rough spots, but they&#x27;re ones I&#x27;ve known for decades now. It&#x27;s everywhere. It&#x27;s multi-paradigm.
