Perl 6 appeals to me enough to make it my first new language to study, after a 20-year hiatus from any meaningful programming. This could be taken as an anti-endorsement. But for someone with no legacy skills, and no legacy codebase to draw on, I can afford to be arbitrary. What sold me is the cheat of storing floating point numbers as rationals composed of integers. Also when I tried python I missed the curly braces.
