Agreed with all this. Formally interesting programming languages tend to have a fairly steep learning curve, and also tend not to be widely used. If you learn Python or JavaScript you can, if you wish, get a job as a Python coder or web designer relatively easily—I don’t think I’ve ever seen a job for a Haskell coder advertised (though of course if one is advertised then the number of applicants will be much lower).
