I find learning each new language is easier than the one before it; the concepts of software development are largely the same from language to language and are often transferable from language to language.

Then again, I started out on C, so pretty much everything besides Haskell seems like a piece of cake.

I started out with Haskell and now C is killing me. The cognitive distance between the two is enormous.
