You are a lucky person if you have used so many languages and never missed a thing in a language you are using at the moment that is readily available in some other language you have used in the past and that would make everything so much simpler! For example the OP got fed up with Python and switched to Node. Now he is fed up with Node and switching back. I can say that focusing on the downsides of the tool I am currently using and the upsides of the tool I am not using is a fairly common thought pattern for me too. Of course the way to combat it is to remember that it is very rare for some tool to be strictly superior to others and just focus on the task at hand. Choice is a very dangerous thing. When reading the book "Coders at work" I was struck by how primitive some of the old computing environments were. But that did not stop those people from doing amazing things with them. I now think that was partially to their advantage because they were freed from choosing the language/framework and so could concentrate on doing, you know, actual stuff.
