Better question: What is your favourite tool for a given problem?
Python for quick hacks to get the data you have in the format you want or something else that's relatively simple.
JavaScript is basically Python's use case but for websites (small games, forms, single page website).
I like C# for when you need to build out a big project carefully that also needs to run kinda quickly.
TypeScript for sacrificing run time to gain development speed. Also my main choice for the web. Wins against JS except for small things on the web.
Rust for when you gotta go fast and that takes all priority.
