On one hand, I understand how beneficial is to learn a new programming language. On the other hand, having to constantly beaten by mixing up simple language syntax, googling how to find an element in an array, or even create an Anki deck to revise from time to time is so funny to me.

The one thing that actually helped me to jump between languages and platforms is Haxe. Just use the same syntax and API for the basic stuff, and put the focus on actually building the program. I still have to understand and know well about the target (be it C++, JS, or Python), but the time and the mental effort saved from googling about basic syntax and standard APIs is massive.
