In all fairness, that's a pretty common experience with any transition between dislike platforms.
I'll never forget one Java developer who transitioned to JS frontend work (pre-typescript days). Try/catch everywhere.
There's a semi-accurate mindset that "good developers are good in any language" as if software engineers are fungible resources, but the transition time to a novel paradigm isn't really well appreciated.
- mbb70 1y agoI have seen "you can write Java in any language" proven true many times. The culture and idioms of Java impose great constraints than syntax. Not meant as a knock on Java or Java developers.
- zahlman 1y agoOne of the biggest problems with Python is how much Java is written in it. Including in the standard library (the most egregious examples being `logging` and `unittest`). And another big problem is how much C is written in it, even when the project also contains actual C.
