Ask HN: Master 1 language or learn several languages intermediary?
My question is, is it a better idea to completely master 1 or 2 language to the "expertise" level (like for example C++ & Python) or learn several languages (more than 4) at an intermediary level giving them equal time, with a aim to be proficient in multiple-languages?
What impact would either of the decision have on a person's job and career?
I'm really interested in learning C++ and mastering it to the expertise level where I can do pretty much anything without having to think twice.
