That's an opinion that is largely disproven by the amount of working Python code in the world.
Why is it so hard to accept that this is your personal preference and is really not an "objective" statement?
- kelipso 2y agoThe reason for the popularity of python is mainly due to advertising it to programming newbies and non-programmers, not due to significant whitespace.
- necovek 2y agoI never brought popularity up: that mostly leads to lots of small snippets but not a big amount of working code. You can have an unpopular language with a few productive actors producing lots of code. I argue that "chronic inconvenience" is disproven by so many working programs. Even if one argues it's an inconvenience, it is a minor one or it would be hard for non-newbies to produce so much with Python.
- kelipso 2y agoIt’s a minor inconvenience, sure, I use python myself, but it’s definitely a chronic one. It annoys me every single time I code in python.
