Comment on Poll: How many programming languages do you command fluently?

Comments

Memorizing syntax is pretty useless in the real world because you can just reference syntax using Google. It is much more important to know how to think (and in turn, code) than to know a language fluently. If you know PHP well, you can almost certainly code well in Python if you wanted to jump into a project, the same with MySQL and postgres, etc.
