This is absolutely false. Lots of people outgrow Python and use another language.
- Demiurge 6y agoThat's the intended humor, they stop being Python users if they outgrow it. The language and ecosystem is growing, regardless. I've been using it professionally since 2007, and some tasks I know it is not good at, and thats when I know to use another tool. The point is that it is a tool that has its uses, and I consider it the best tool for certain categories. It doesn't need to be the best tool for all categories. That seems pretty "absolutist".
- staticassertion 6y agoI'm not anti-Python, for what it's worth. I love Python, and part of that is because of the features that make it so slow.
