I am completely sure I want to dive into the world of Programming (web dev) and ultimately get a job(in programming) to continue learning to program.
I have to choose a path: to get a Programming job and ultimately support myself.
Why should and shouldn't I choose the Elixir programming path to reach my goal?
I have dabbled into Elixir Programming a bit and I have already started to like it.
I have to choose a language and it's confusing. I like Elixir but I don't know where it will lead me, the other is JS, and Python which seem to have a lot of opportunities but I never got along well with both.
And then there is Ruby, which in terms of Job Opportunities seems similar to Elixir.
My Background: I am from a Commerce Background. Know basic Python, MYSQL, and created a few blog sites using WordPress and managed their backend by myself (cloud hosting), which gave me an understanding of configuring the NGINX webserve.
Hello webdev,
I have one exact problem to solve:
Load a page
Query a mysql database
Put the contents in to an array
Show the results of that array.
Most of the debate between these four systems I could find were fairly esoteric number-crunching competitions. This isn't my goal - there is very little complex logic to what's happening.
But out of these four, which would accomplish this specific task, and serve the results in the smallest amount of time?

I've been having a blast toying with node, and this question largely largely comes out of curiosity over what I should build my next project with. There are numerous advantages/disadvantages to all of these systems, but I'm curious which one is optimal for this specific task.
