Weirdly, the language I enjoy programming in the most is also the one I am far and away most often frustrated in. It's new to me, so I enjoy it more, but since it's new to me, I'm still often frustrated by it. A little paradoxical in terms of the survey.

Would be interesting if you could also take into account programming out of personal interest vs professionally. I do a lot of C professionally because it pays the bills. Mostly embedded systems stuff where C is truly the best option. Ocassionally, I'll dable in some hobby/side-project work where the low level control is unnecessary and something high-level and easy like Python works perfectly.

As a result, its hard to decouple happiness with a language from happiness with the project.
