I am not a native english speaker , apologies if I am not clear enough. I am a self taught javascript and C developer . I would like to move to NLP . There are some popular nodejs libraries for NLP like natural, but all the jobs advertised seem to ask for Python or R. So , from a purely commercial point of view, does it make sense for me to invest time in nodejs libraries like natural ? Or would I be better off picking up a new language , (python or R)? Which language would you suggest and why ? Thanks.
Languages are easy to learn. Domains are hard.<p>If you can understand the concepts behind NLP then attaching those concepts to whatever abstractions the language you're using to to do your work should be easy enough.<p>Languages are just tools. Knowing how to use a circular saw isn't going to help you build a house if you don't understand how to build a proper frame.
