Oh god, I feel this. Why can't there be a sane language‽

Computer programming, regardless of language, is hard. The computer does exactly what you tell it to.

Yes. That being said, it matters which language you choose. COBOL is always a bad choice, unless writing in COBOL is the whole point. There isn't really a universal best choice, either. Python is often a good one, but if you're doing something big it will become this meme.
