Depends on what I'm building. Rust, for example, I'd not use for FE development. Although it's possible with WASM. Then TypeScript. To write a CLI, then Rust. Backend service? Node or Python. If BE service needs to be performant, something else.

A language is just a tool. Learn the differences between them, and what makes them useful for what situation!
