Best language for a beginner? : programming | Torhoo darknet markets

I'm not a complete beginner. I've taken the basics of js, python, html/css and some swift. What's the most profitable language to learn? I was thinking of doing web dev freelancing but the competition is insane. Some people tell me python, some tell me JS. How can I make some money, and what languages should I start with?

Python is great for pretty much everyone. It has simple syntax and you can do a lot of advanced stuff in it. It can even be used for web development (Django, Flask). JavaScript is another good language but if you want to make some websites on Tor it's not very usable since people should have JavaScript turned off. And a lot of them do. Then there's server-side JavaScript such as NodeJS and Deno which runs on your server and you can use it to make APIs and other stuff.

But my advice is go for Python. It's great for beginner and you can do some really advanced stuff with it.

Sounds good! Python has been looking really nice to get into, and it is the language im most comfortable with at the moment. Are there any benefits to using python for web development over something else? Are there any downsides to it? I was thinking of buying a ~$20 udemy django course to help me get started with python web dev, just not sure if it's worth it.

As I mentioned, you can use Python to make some really advanced stuff and when you're using it for web development you can put whatever you made into your website's backend. It's also really popular and has some great libraries. And it has a very good readability as a bonus. The downside is that Python is slow and I'm not sure how would your websites perform with a lot of visitors. And about that Udemy course, I wouldn't recommend it. It's just my personal preference but everything I know I learned by watching some video on YouTube to wrap my head around the basics and then I just worked on various projects and got better.

For a freelancer web developer i would say a combo of html + css + javascript + node.js is the best. Not only that you'll be able to cover the entire problem area with a single language (javascript), you'll also have the most modern and advanced tools at your disposal (think Vue / React). If used responsibly, the result is a professional looking website.

Honestly I think this is what im going to use. I really like python and wanted to use it, but after reading about how much slower it can be I've decided against it.

Java and PHP. PHP is really fun and easy to throw up websites and play around with. Java is rad cause you can start devops on android apps with android studio and really the skys the limit. All higher level programming languages have similarities that are essentially the paradigm of abstraction. I know a guy who writes in c and C++ and he loves it. He makes casino games. Its just so different, I never felt comfortable with it but the lower level you go the bigger your dick is. Linus Torvalds dick is 22' long, fucking around with C all day. Pick one and stay with it there is no wrong choices. PHP just may be the easiest to get off the ground with and see some results

Personally started with C too. It's not that hard once you get it down. Personally i think there is no real best language to start with. I just started with C and i really like it :p and still feel the most comfortable with it.
Like the guy above said PHP is pretty chill too.

Strait Java will teach you everything you should know to get a high paying job at a multi-billion / trillion dollar corporation. Python is good to know but more small/medium sized companies use it. Depends what kind of job you want, and if you want to run your own business/freelance or not.

That's true but I wouldn't consider Java very beginner friendly even though some people learn it as their first language.

As anyone else will say, Python or JS. I'd lean towards JS. Personal preference, but also because it's more used. It's not that serious though, once you know what you're doing, you can pick up languages pretty easily, so it won't even matter.
