But if you think about the two python scalability problems :
1) speed
2) programs become unmaintainable as they grow way quicker than they do in java and the like
Nobody's arguing to write shell-scripts in Java. Why are people arguing writing websites that will include more than a trivial amount of functionality in anything but Java ?
- Osmose 12y ago(1) isn't really something that's terribly arguable one way or another (In my experience Python is plenty fast for most tasks, but my tasks differ from your tasks). I question (2) though. Why do you think that a Python program will become unmaintainable faster than a Java program? Is it type errors? Or maybe you think it's difficult to figure out what values are expected in a given variable? Or is it something else?
