Ruby is "perl-esque" in syntax, and of course TIMTOWTDI is opposite to the 13th item of the Zen of Python, so it's understandable some dislike to an express design decision.
But hate? Really?
- renewedrebecca 3y agoI personally really do hate python.
- jjav 3y ago> But hate? Really? Yes; well maybe hate it a strong word reserved for life and death matters, but I intensely dislike python. It's like nails on a chalkboard reaction for me. It drives me crazy that it has become popular.
- shrimp_emoji 3y agoWow. I feel that way with C# and Java, but mostly without any reasons I can rationally articulate. Meanwhile, I love Python!
- Turing_Machine 3y ago> But hate? Really? Coding with Python makes me feel like I'm hand-washing dishes that have been dirtied and left in the sink for several days. I know that many like Python, and I'm not arguing against that in any way. Whatever floats your boat, mang. However, trying to tell me why I "ought to like" Python is like telling me why I "ought to like" cilantro. I know you think it's delicious. To me it smells like squashed bugs, and tastes like dish soap.
