Aah Turbo Pascal. That was the first "big pants" language I learnt and enjoyed.

After that... C++ was fun initially and later felt way too featured. I don't like C++ code now (especially with heavy template use and stl and boost).

I now code in Python (because most of the things I work on are in Python) though I don't like the dynamic typing.

My potential new love is Rust but we are still working out some issues
