If I could, I'd attempt to create an ideal language. I'd aspire that its features would be:

-The easyiness of Python

-The library ecosystem of Javascript

-The readability and cross- platformness of Java

-Functional features of Haskell

-Modularity of Lisp

-Low level features of C/C++

-Powerful with strings and data, like Perl

-Both compiled and interpreted, with REPL

Anything missing from your favorite languages?

    The easy asynchronicity of Erlang/Elixir. And btw, Java is not readable, quite the opposite.

    Typed, recommended but not required. Like python. Hacking shit together is easier without them, maintaining it is so much easier with!

    @kpenc I fail to see how Java is not readable. Maybe you are just not familiar with it, but in my case it is the most readable language on the planet due to basically every large Java program starting in basically the same way with no magical features on its syntax. It really is readable man, one just needs to get used to it.
