I'm probably biased because I think Python is a hacked together mess but I just don't see what the point is in dragging it around.
- redeyed 5y agoAgain hammer to microscope comparison. Do you realize that your ignorance is bigger than Solar System?
- jgb1984 5y agoVery useful contribution, thanks! Mainly to demonstrate your own ignorance on the topic at hand.
- mhh__ 5y agoI did ask a question. The second part is me being belligerent but the question was sincere. I think Python is shit but so is most everything else, I'm interested in whether people jump ship or just work around it's issues at scale. I work on a programming language designed to avoid messy python scripts internally, so I am sincerely interested in these decisions.
- mixmastamyk 5y agoThe question is unanswerable. Python started as a scripting and prototyping language and that hasn't and won't completely change. It's fantastic at what it does from that perspective, late additions of complexity notwithstanding.
- ajkjk 5y agoThe difference is that it is so much easier, by orders of magnitude, to write code that gets shit done in python than any native language I'm aware of.
