Every programmer knows there is one true programming language

How easily can people here switch between languages/frameworks.

I find myself using C, C++, C#, PHP, Python, Javascript at different times. If I have been working in say C++ and then need to do some work in Python it takes me a while to switch out of C++ mode and get up to speed in Python mode.

Is this just a shortcoming that I have or do others have a similar difficulty quickly switching their focus?

No, it's not just you. Switching gears is time consuming.

I do a lot of different things, and it can take me several days to get "in the zone".

It's generally very easy for me to switch into localization mode, but switching into different programming modes is rough sometimes.
