And all three are completely useless for constrained system programming. Hopefully some students won’t listen and we’ll have someone to hire. If definitely not against any of these but they are all huge abstractions from the hardware running the code and great programmers (amongst many other things) understand the implications of the code they write.

If you want to start with one of these great but learn some assembler at least to understand the code produced by higher level languages and learn at least C. You will not regret it professionally.
