I'm kinda surprised about the community argument. I've generally felt that people are nice enough, if a bit conservative. Though I guess this is the community that produced Python 3k, so something must have gone wrong
Especially to hear that someone went from Python to Ruby... I still feel raw for getting yelled at in IRC for trying to understand how blocks differ from anon. functions and about not doing things the "Ruby way"

- dkersten 10y agoAgreed. The community is the part I like most about Python. I've largely stopped attending talks and such years ago, but still attend events every now and again (mostly the annual local conference) purely because I find the community friendly and interesting.
