I am absolutely new in Linux. So,what distribution/version should a beginner like me install to get started with?I had Mint in mind , but I would like to know from experts.So please do let me know.

Since you're a beginner, I'd just install one and start learning about the basics, i.e. directory structure, services, shell programming, development tools, etc. Mint sounds like a nice option to go with. Once you know enough what you want and like you could be moving to another one. I don't think there is an "expert" who spent all his/her life with a single distro.

I use linux ubuntu
I'm not sure I understand the question 100% but I believe the answer is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UnityLaunchersAndDesktopFiles
I would recommend you to use the free JetBrains Toolbox:

Not only will create launchers but will keep everything up-to-date.
I really like it and I am sure you will.

I have a legacy Ruby on Rails API project, I notice that the project uses both active_model_serializer and Jbuilder. There are app/serializers diretory for active_model_serializer, and app/view/api/ for Jbuilder.
I'm new to Ruby on Rails API. From what I have read from the internet it seems active_model_serializer and Jbuilder are both used to deal with JSON data, there's even an article arguing which one is better.
I don't know which one is better, but is it a good practice to use both?
There's no problem in using both, but it's definitely not a good practice. It can be confusing for new people coming to the project. I'd say it's ok to use both if you transition from one to the other (most often from Jbuilder to AMS), but it's good to eventually stick with one of them.

When I worked for my previous company, I used BeyondCompare to compare directories containing codes. After switching to a new company, I became to use Linux. For the same code comparison purpose, I started using tkdiff. But, the GUI of tkdiff is not as good as BeyondCompare, and it seems that tkdiff cannot compare directories with multiple files. Could anyone suggest what would be the best free source comparison tool I can use in Linux environment?
in my work , I use Meld (http://meldmerge.org/)

I am looking forward to learn a language mainly for my electronic projects. My projects may include PC to MCU communications, TCP/IP (like catching new facebook comments and sending it to MCU) etc. I have seen a lot of similar projects using python and perl. So which one will be better and easier to learn as well as to implement?
At the risk of suggesting something "weird" -- you might want to take a look at Processing and its microcontroller counterpart Wiring. They are designed for exactly this sort of use case.
