Basically I was hoping to do a deep dive into one tech. Like I said, I've been already playing with the mentioned 3 tech but neither an expert nor know enough about them. By working on my side project I would like to see myself move into a promising tech that will help me stay in the job market. So if you were me, what would you do?

I think if you lean towards system programming at Google, go with Go. If you want to do web dev, either Rails or Node.js would suffice. If you want to do both backend and frontend, familiarity in javascript, go with Node.js. Rails libraries are more mature, but most new interesting libraries seem to be in javascript.
