It's like me walking outside and seeing my best friend on his porch doing whatever a few houses down. I don't have to run over to him and hang out with him for the rest of the day because I saw him. Could just wave, nod or whatever and that's that until later or the next day.

There! I was able to successfully age the joke. Experiment completed.

We can rebuild him. We have the technology.

You're making this hard.

I've read that there's no real specific language that someone should learn first as long as you have an idea of what you want to do, then whichever language you pick up will not only help you learn the others, but will help your idea "come to life", so to speak. My problem is that I'm not necessarily sure what I'd like to create, even if just for the sake of practice and learning. Even if I figure something out, how can I know if any given language I decide to pick up will benefit me in that sense? Is it a factor of being able to do something with one language means probably being able to do it with a number of others? I always assume I'm thinking too much on it and should just go in with the idea of something like, "why not recreate Pacman?" While it's not directly something I want to do, it's better than not knowing yet, right?
