The Python people started this fight in 2000 and have since said much worse and heaps more, most of it untrue and libellous; turn-around is only fair. Those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
- phlakaton 5y agoThere is no more a well-defined “Python people” than there is a “Perl people” – both of their user bases span industries and computing architectures, hobbyists and professionals, old bones and young bloods, true believers and weary journeymen – and they overlap significantly, for that matter. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.
