However, once you are familiar with the broad paradigms, there exists a danger of conflating learning new languages with learning new ways to solve problems. By paradigms, I mean programming language paradigms (e.g. functional programming, class-based object-oriented programming, generic programming, etc.) The danger comes from learning many languages of the same class for the sake of learning them. There are other areas of programming that would be more beneficial to learn, given limited time.
