The genius of Python is that it treads that fine line between allowing too little or too much control. Between being too strict or too liberal. Between trading speed for clarity and simplicity.

- shadowgovt 7y agoThe only really risky part of adopting it at enterprise scale is that it's flexible enough that a developer can trick themselves into thinking they can extend it and they end up falling into DSL hell (where you're technically still using Python, but you've bent it so far via its runtime-dynamism that static analysis tools can't help you and you're now writing both code and a toolchain to support writing code). But you don't have to do that to yourself to use the language.
