You're right, everything is an object in Python. However, what I'm referring to is more on the application design side that you see in the enterprise Java community, rather than the implementation of the core types or builtins.
- midas007 13y agoHopefully this offends everyone &| starts yet another pointless religious debate: Java was a reaction to C/C++ (language safety); Python was a reaction to Perl's messes; and Ruby is polished Perl. And bonus: Go was a reaction to Java and C++ compiles taking forever. With production usage, each platform matures through attempts to learn from the past while not forgetting too much before that. (Sadly, though most everything will be coded in javascript.)
- kbenson 13y agoThere's hope! With a sufficiently complex caching and verification system, we can deploy chunks of JS that implement interpreters in-browser, last a long time, and can possibly be pre-compiled into an optimized form. If we really view JS as assembly for the web, I think there's an interesting future.
