  1. Nah, man. Python and brainfuck. Anyone who can master both will not have trouble with simple things like learning about maths and databases.

  2. Fine, then. Leave the cool stuff to the true autists.

  3. The intended audience for the question is experienced programmers who are teaching or mentoring noobs. I recommend python over javascript as it is easier to understand -- that goes for noobs as well as pros. That being said, if you are self-motivated and slightly autistic, you can start with any language.
