Quoting myself from a similar thread today:
Good advice. As a Lisp developer, I have used Swift and it seems like a nicely designed language, very good tooling on macOS/iPadOS and OK on Linux. Go, Rust, and others are also good.
Off topic, but I thought it sad how once 9/11 happened with the side-tracked war on terrorism, the NSA and FBI apparently (from my private citizen perspective) stopped doing much of the previous great work on public support for computer security, going after international computer crime cartels, etc. As a US taxpayer, I would like to see them prioritize that type of work.

Now that Chinese, Russian and North Korean actors are putting in work and causing real economic damage in the west it looks like defence is starting to hold some value again.
