You know JS ? Contribute to some libs.
Found a bug in chrome ? Report the bug, learn a bit of C++, and submit a patch to fix it.
Cyou count to 100? Learn quantum physics, compute the odds for each ball, and win the lottery. Easy peasy. I don’t know why these kids can’t thrive here in the future.

In all seriousness, learning c++ or any language is good advice but it may only be easy or even possible if you have a certain background of concepts. We tend to overlook those, and remember achieving a certain skill without the full picture
I contributed a feature to the .NET JIT without knowing C++.
